Cool Off 1
Here's the thing. After the last issue, with all the stuff that happened, we needed an issue to cool off. And that's what we got. And it was good. There was no scene I did not like. Whether it was Goldballs going home, Cyclops and Magneto, Magik being awesome as usual, ect.But this is a $4 issue, and as good as what's inside is, there is not enough that happens to justify that price tag. And so the question for readers is, how much is quality cooling off and some setup worth? How much d...

Departure 6
This has been surprisingly an amazing series, as although I initially didn't get it cause I felt it'd not be good, after hearing the good things about it I decided to get the back issues, and the series since. I'm glad I've done so as it's been amazing, and although not always brilliant fairly consistent.PlotBack from Limbo (Hell) the X-Men deal with Fabio Medina wanting to leave the team, as well as helping another mutant.ReviewThis was a great issue, and continues with the series' consistency....

Uncanny X-Men #8 - Coming home to find youv'e been "beDAZZLED" 5
COVER ART: 4.5/5CHRIS BACHALO does everything almost perfect in this cover! He created this great energy and buzz with this cover. We know Magneto had semi-betrayed the X-Men in the first few issues so is this going to be the "clash of the titans" between Scott and Eric that this cover is representing? Well, no, not at all, and that is why it loses a half star. Chris pulled a little bit of a switcharoo on us fans, but ultimately I am okay with it as the story was very well done and the cover it...

Back from Limbo, Back to Reality 0
The first issue following the Limbo arc plays on a pair of classic X-Men themes as Fabio faces the questions and concerns of his family when he returns to them and reveals his mutant powers and the X-Men rescue another young mutant whose public display of his new found powers get him shot by a trigger-happy cop. Both are very common kinds of stories the various X-titles have dealt with for decades and both have their moments including finally picking up the thread of Dazzler's story introduced m...

Not the Confrontation You'd Expect 0
I think there's been both a lot of hype and confusion over what this issue is supposed to be. The teasers and cover suggest that there's to be this huge smack down between Magneto and Cyclops, when that's never really been what this series is about, nor would it make much sense in terms of the narrative. Rather, this is where we see the team recovering from the recent events and figuring out what they can do to make it work out.The issue starts with Fabio leaving the team, which, in and of itsel...
