Legion of X remains one of the most significant series to arrive in the modern era of X-Men, and it shows no signs of slowing down. Read Full Review

This book is something of a mixed bag. The art is absolutely wonderful. Spurrier handles his pet characters and themes brilliantly. Unfortunately his take on religion as a concept is problematic at best. It's a solid read, even if the philosophical angles don't quite hold up. Read Full Review

Things get a little weird and off the rails this issue, but the very strong character work and overall ideas keep things quite good. Read Full Review

This series is brilliant. Spurrier has crafted something special here.

Spurrier continues his exploration of faith in Kraoka, and leads to some surprising conclusions. One this is certain, he writes one hell of a Kurt!

And here I'm reminded of the way that being messy can be a bad thing in a comic. The plot is twisty and intriguing and it makes satisfying forward progress. Even twistier are the wide-ranging philosophical points, which are nicely tied to the characters. But there's a shortage of storytelling excellence here. The writing and art are good, but they're not strong enough to stitch the sprawling ideas into a cohesive story. Or, rather, there *is* a cohesive story, but the vast amounts of material *around* that story overwhelm it. This can be a super-fun comic if you're in the mood for deep thought and forensic analysis. If you just want to be entertained, though, this could be a bit of a headache.

As much as I enjoy a lot of the ideas being presented here, I still believe that everything needs to be pulled together in a better way. I enjoyed the stuff with Legion talking to Charles and I also really liked the conversation between Nightcrawler and Zsen. However, the way this issue, as a whole, was executed doesn't feel as cohesive as I'd like it to be. I know I keep talking about Way of X in my reviews of this series, but I'm just really hoping things can get back to those heights soon.

I think this comic is guilty of too much going on at once. So many interesting concepts that just aren't getting enough time to flourish.
