Uncanny X-Men #3

Uncanny X-Men #3 is an excellent X-Men issue that balances meaningful dialogue, well-paced story, and spectacular action to give us the best possible mutant experience thanks to its talented team of artists and writers. Every page, panel, and speech bubble were efficiently used to give us a cinematic story. With seven more weekly issues to go, I'm looking forward to seeing how the story of Uncanny X-Men will develop. Read Full Review

UNCANNY X-MEN #3 is a fun, well-paced read with quality art and quality writing. If you think the UNCANNY X-MEN relaunch is a little gimmicky, give this issue a try. You won't regret it. Thompson, Rosenberg, and Brisson are finally giving the X-Men the makeover they deserve. Read Full Review

This was a fun issue with some great twists that are continuing to build into something new that I am on board for. Read Full Review

While this is another good issue of Uncanny X-Men, it's obviously a piece of a larger story that will be more impactful when read with the rest of the 10-part "X-Men Disassembled." Read Full Review

The issue is a pretty key one with the debut of four new versions of characters and if this is going where it seems it's all going, like “Age of Apocalypse” lead ups, this one will be a key issue that many will look to get. It's clear we're in the beginning stages of the next classic X-event and Disassembled is going to live up to the hype and then some. Read Full Review

The plot finally gets going in some actually enjoyable ways, so Uncanny X-Men is getting better. Read Full Review

Uncanny X-Men #3 ups the ante, ending the first third of this ten week story with two big reveals. The characterization is perfect, and the highlight of the whole thing. The art and coloring are mostly good, with a few noticeable deficiencies. The big reveal at the end should keep readers on the edge of their seats, though, and makes up for a lot. Read Full Review

UNCANNY X-MEN #3 could benefit from an occasional pumping of the breaks, but that doesn't keep it from being a fully loaded and exciting X-Men experience. Read Full Review

With all the hallmark drama of a well rounded epic X-Men adventure, the inclusion of a new iterations of familiar characters turning up at the door to threaten the X-Mens very existence has the tried and tested feel of a truly grand saga. Read Full Review

Protecting a world that hates and fears them they are children of the atom, they are the X-men trying to preserve Charles Xavier's dream that humans and mutants can live in peace. Read Full Review

Uncanny X-Men #3 covers a lot of plot-ground, but it does so at the expense of vivid characterization. While it's pretty and it's eventful, it lacks the engaging, sympathetic connection with the mutants that was so evident in previous issues. The result is a connective episode, a comic you power through in hopes of greater moments down the road. Read Full Review

Seven issues remain in the current story arc with writers Brisson, Thompson, and Rosenberg working as a unit. Together, they have perfect execution in handling the voices, personalities, and dynamics of the extended X-family. The real balancing act between action, plot, and characterization is a heavy chore for any X-writer, but the trio does their best to keep the story fluid and moving forward. Read Full Review

Uncanny X-Men's "Disassembled" arc is beginning to read a bit like an "and then"" improv exercise that got out of hand. Read Full Review

The new Uncanny X-Men still fails to create a sense of excitement or a unique identity in its third chapter. Read Full Review

They’re trying their best but it falls a bit short from the mark. Lots of generic action is always good but I can’t bring myself to care about what happens to the characters. The art is good but I was expecting a stronger bolder style to go with the relaunch. The pace of the story is slow and nothing particularly exciting happens.

Exciting well paced issue. The big reveal at the end was ruined for me sadly enough by Marvel.

It’s definitely too much, but you gotta give the writers credit for bringing this series in with huge ideas and creative thoughts.

Not too much happens here. We get more explanation of this mystery, but not really. The new horsemen are pretty great but I wonder what this is all leading to. I have enough faith in all three of the writers to deliver something great at the end of this. This issue was solid, but it didn't have that oomph factor.

Ok at least I know the truth about Madrox. But what the hell happen to Magneto and Angel ... Worst concept art ever ! Cover - I take the toy variant. Related in a way (I really like the mad jacket possibility ^^ ) 1.5/2 Writing - Three writer for this ... Well they succeed to do worse than Avengers No surrenders ! 1/3 Arts - The art do what he can but seem not very exited. I did see Cinar doing way better than this on Legion of the super-heroes. 1.5/3 Feeling - At least the last I suffer to read. I'm out of this s.... ! 0/2
