By Mike Carey (Writer), Carey Nord (Art), and Dave McCaig (Colors)
I had planned on doing a full review of this one since I am quite an X-Men fan, but it just simply isn’t worth the time it takes to write or read a full review. The writing is underwhelming, the artwork looks rushed, the storyline mostly revolves around the standard Secret Invasion fighting, and it ultimately made me realize how there are much better X-Men and Secret Invasion books out there. I honestly like everyone on the creative team (Mike Carey is doing phenomenal work with the Legacy series), so it absolutely baffles me as to how this book could be so utterly boring.
With all the tie-ins associated with the Secret Invasion I knew that there was bound to be a few duds. I’m just shocked and disappointed that the biggest dud involves some of my favorite characters. Skip this one. (Grade: D-)
