Revenge is a dish best served cold
Forget that this is a "Point One" initiative issue,´cause let´s be honest with each other: Marvel, it´s a series that is currently in # 5 and you want us to believe that you need new readers in this? Come on, it´s been on for only a few months!! That initiative thing can work for old titles like Captain America, Hulk, Iron Man, but why do the same aproach to a series that only started? Beats me, but that brings the initial phrase "forget that this is a 'Point One' issue" doesn´t it, because this was a spectacular issue - the editorial of Marvel did an awesome thing in selecting Rafael Albuquerque (the hottest brazilian artist from American Vampire series) to team up with current UXF writer Rick Remender to produce this amazing tale of vengeance, pay back and rant...many forms of rant.With an interesting story - The Reavers´attempt of blowing Utopia to a million pieces - and creative, cutting edge dialogues - exploring the characters behaviors, giving more focus to Psylocke´s urge of revenge - this issue is a full plate for fans of action, Logan going bersecker and lots of thrill and blood. The art of Rafael Albuquerque with Dean White´s colors made this issue so great, even the darkest and blurry moments are good! I highly recommend this issue, because it´s an X-Men´s History lesson and it´s awesome!
