A young girl just coming to terms with her mutant powers is brutally injured in a random school shooting. Now blind and possibly permanently paralyzed, the girl wallows in her misery. Only, these pity parties are having dramatic effects across the globe as millions are randomly subjected to her blindness and immobility. So, it’s up to Professor X and Cable to help ease the girl out of her cocoon, possibly coach her to walk again, and use her new powers for good.
It’s a good story, but there is one serious flaw here- the girl was shot point blank in the face. A scene shows her in an ER with blood and gauze covering her. Yet, the very next day, she’s shown in her hospital bed with a porcelain skin and not a blemish or stitch to be found. That’s just totally unrealistic. I know your thinking this is a comic book. But, she doesn’t have a healing factor like Wolverine, so her head should be covered with bandages and such.
Very poor plotting or poor art direction. Not sure which, but it’s not very forgivable.
Rating: 5 out of 10 stars.
