    X-Men #200: Living up to the hype?

    I've been waiting for X-Men #200 pretty much all of this month. When I picked it up on Saturday, I was expecting some big twists, and the issue mostly delivers. As you can tell from the front cover, many former X-Men betray the team, but I was not expecting the twist at the end. I will not spoil it for you, but another X-Men betrays the team on the last page of the story, in a way that is not expected. I would have liked to see Sabertooth in the issue, but he was MIA. I also felt there were too many ads, which means less story.

    As for the "Endangered Species" story, I felt it was kind of boring. The mini story did bring another little twist at the end. I was pretty surprised to see Beast ask some of his greatest foes for help.

    Overall, X-Men #200 had some high expectations, and thankfully, it meets most of them. I will definitely be picking up #201 next month.

      200 is often not a number many comics ever reach these days, unless you're from DC that is. With huge buzz, and a long wait, the anxiety is over, the X-men move onto reimagined territory with ish 200. After the events of House of M, nothing's ever been the same. Plus Rouge made an encounter with a dying alien race, and now carries their conciousness but ended up losing her own life in the process. Cable investigates an area left behind, until a Cajun in classic form comes back with a bit of razz...
