  ULTIMATE COMICS X-MEN is epic. This was a fantastic issue and a delightful read. I love how this story line is developing. In issue 17, we get to meet some great 616 characters in this Ultimate universe, and things start to look up for the team, at least for a few moments. Brian Woods writing is fantastic, and he has the perfect creative team backing him. Read Full Review

I'm glad to say that this issue is the best evidence yet that he's taking the Ultimate X-Men, who often seem to inhabit the most overlooked corner of the Ultimate Universe, in the right direction. He's shaped Kitty Pryde into an iconic leader for a new generation of X-Men who find themselves in world where there's nothing to lose, and everything to fight for. Read Full Review
