Magneto #19

As a whole, this issue was excitingly written as it was beautifully presented. If Magneto #19 is any indication of how Erik Lehnsherr lives out his final moments then it is a fitting end to a beloved character. Read Full Review

I have enjoyed thisbook from the start, showing Magneto going back to hisroots and doing what he always strivedto do; protecthisfellow mutants. Away fromthe X-Men, Magneto has gone back to doing whatever necessary, even spilling blood, to see his goals attained, and this is the Magneto I have always liked reading. I have not beena big fan of Briar, at his sideserving as guide and counsel, but in this issue it is revealed Magnetoas his doubts about her as well. Cullen Bunnhas given a greatvoice toMagneto andgetting the reader into the story; and Paul Davdison‘s art really made mefeel the action, but also the darkness and mood of the flashbacks. The end is coming with the Incursion, and I am looking forward to see how Magento will face it. Read Full Review

But even when an issue of Magneto fails on theme, it always succeeds with characterization. Bunn was born to write Magneto. Read Full Review
