BONUS REVIEW by Kevin Healy


In the hands of Dennis Hopeless and Mark Bagley, this book is fine. Andrew Henessey on inks makes fine look better than it normally does. The problem with fine is that fine comes after great. This title under Bendis and a string of A-list artists (or artists who moved to the A-list because of this title) was a book that would make you desperate to read the next issue. There were stakes...real stakes...in almost every issue, sometimes on every page. Things are calmer here, even in a world w/ a dead Scott Summers and mutants dying when anyone even says 'Inhuman'. If things are so desperate for them now, is a fun, fine book really a book that should exist? The conditions mutants live under now (while total nonsense if you ask me) are not represented by the content of this book. That's the post Secret Wars world Marvel has decided to go with-don't blame the messenger. If having all mutants on the run literally from death doesn't lend itself to fun, this book probably needs a different direction. How threatened do mutants seem to be when Blob can be in Paris trying out cannibalism?

I give it 5 out of 10 Grahams
