Dec 06, 2017Iceman continues to be the full package of the mutant experience from a different perspective. Bobby lives a very different life from everyone else who doesn't have a time-displaced younger self or parents that will still somewhat communicate with them. He has come a long way since the start of this series and you definitely want to see where he can go next with more confidence. Read Full Review

A family dinner with the Drakes and both Bobbies takes a disturbing turn, and Daken presents himself for a key antagonist role in future issues. While this comic covers plenty of promising ground, once again it feels like Sina Grace's script is an under-worked rough draft stab at developments that could/should land with much more memorability. How the Bobbies react to the Drakes' insta-creepy desire to treat time-displaced Bobby like a potential parenting do-over is a perfect example. Elder Bobby's condemnation of this idea *should* be the capstone of the issue, but Mr. Grace has him spew a bunch of forgettable platitudes in this oh-so-crucial moment. Robert Gill's art stays in its usual groove: Wonderfully detailed, but robbed of clarity b more
