    The Final Horsemen

    It´s been quite a while since I laid eyes in a such creative an interesting X-Men comic book, with a most entertaining and original opening pages: the renewal of the Apocalypse´s Horsemen is multicultural, with excellent good taste, great and concise background stories, providing to the readers a quick and appealing info of the current nemesis of the Uncanny X-Force, all of them selected with the crafty hands of an old character: Ozymandias. As Remender doesn´t explain much of Apocalypse´s real situation (why he has become a boy, why the nice old lady working as a tutor is his ship), he compensates by providing such a good character concept and excellent battle descriptions, in which the talented Jerome Opeña optimizes to it´s best. There´s a cohesion in the story that links dialogues and action that really amazed me, making me flip the nest pages looking for more and more, hoping that this issue would never end. Bettsy´s role as team leader, coordinating Logan and Phantomex moves were awesome, showing a quality and potential that I´ve never seen before in her. Deadpool´s captions were a nostalgic homage to Daniel Way´s aproach of the character, but the dialogues with Warren are craaazy and funny. Remender continues to create good interaction between Logan and Phantomex, and introduces a new factor in this plot: maybe love can conquer War and that Betsy should have  worried more about her than for Warren´s desires of killing . It´s nice to see how the mutants are working together as a team, despite the fact of their differences and that they had no training together. Remender and Opeña are an uncanny creative team!! Highly recommended! Three issues of pure action, fun and interesting story.
    Fantastic and Solid 5
    I´ll put some scenes here that show Logan against Death

      Uncanny X-Force tracks down Apocalypse and fight his Horsemen...things didn't go so well. Will they survive long enough for the series to continue?  The Good We get a look at the origins of Apocalypse's Last Horsemen. Jerome Opena's art along with Dean White's colors do an amazing job in giving more than the average flashback feel. The Horsemen are ruthless and show they are the perfect opponents for the hardcore, don't hold back,  X-Force team.  Remender continues the extreme action we saw in t...

      This issue deals with the ongoing struggle of the heroes on the moon to swing the momentum back on Apocalypse's Horsemen who handled them so easily the previous issue.  This starts out with an introduction to the past of all the members of the Horseman before the heroes start to struggle against them again.  Really this in a sense sort of inverted the whole story here as the background stories were a lot more compelling than most of what followed.  Some of this follow-on story was decent, but ot...
