I really don't care for Silvestri's art. He was the artist on my favorite era of X-men (the outback days), but I just do not like it. All the Top Cow artists look way too similar to me.

However I've come to accept that Fraction's X-men is unlikely to get a consisitant artist that I enjoy.

That's fine, since I love the writing more than pudding, and I loooove pudding.

The writers at marvel seem to think it's really cool for the villains use the media to fight the heroes now. While it is pretty novel, there is something to be said for making a huge robot that blasts the protagonist into a small paste.

I do think the increasing levels of chaos were incredibly well written especially the scene with Norman deploying people.

I'm intrigued by the last page and I look forward to seeing where this book goes.

Story: 2 - Average Art: 4 - Very Good
