The tear in the fabric of the original X-Men line-up is beginning
to show when the Angel takes Old Cyclops up on his offer to join the New Xavier
School for Mutants. Meanwhile, the mutants become the target of the Uncanny
Avengers when Mystique and Sabretooth go on a crime spree robbing banks as the
original X-Men. Then Jean Grey gets a terrible taste of how powerful and
dangerous her phoenix powers will be when she loses control in an attempt to
apprehend the rogue mutant Bonnie and Clyde.
I really love this series. I also like its sister title
Uncanny X-Men quite a lot. Both are masterfully scripted by the great Brian
Michael Bendis. The art is also quite good; being both classic retro and
modernly striking. I’m now caught up on both series. Hopefully, the next volume
of both will become available at my local library very soon.
Worth Consuming
Rating: 9 out of 10 stars.
