Uncanny X-Men #7

Uncanny X-Men #7 lets the crossover stretch its legs. The book is achingly gorgeous, and the writing is flawless. The book is both heartfelt and hardcore. The characters have a lot of pent-up emotion that needs to be expelled, and that is achieved in an explosive fight scene. Read Full Review

Marquez and Salazar deliver beautifully detailed and visually stunning art throughout the issue. The character designs are fantastic and the action is thrilling on every page and panel. Read Full Review

The X-Men face off with their counterparts in a much anticipated showdown. Simone's writing cements Rogue and company as the premier X team. The art brings the action and defiance of both groups. Judging by the last page, there's no easy way out if both teams want to save their captured members. Read Full Review

Uncanny X-Men #7 has a lot going on for it. It also has some not-so-great parts. Unfortunately the bad parts have to do with the crossover it's a part of. Read Full Review

When X-teams clash..! We get an uninspired story. The building blocks for something fascinating are there, but the execution is largely lacking. Read Full Review

Uncanny X-Men #7 is an uneven, mixed bag of an issue with strong action and a good pace, but the positives are overshadowed by an inconsistent overlap with X-Men #8, weird plot holes, and a general lack of satisfaction. Tom Brevoort's first “event” since starting the From The Ashes era is off to a mediocre start. Read Full Review

Nice! Okay so thank God that whatever happened with issue #6 being such trash didn't happen on this issue. The art is not as good as the first 5 issues but thankfully the style is consistent with those issues unlike #6. I like this style alot but would like it to be a bit more detailed even with those far away shots of the characters. Nonetheless everyone looks great and Rogue is really shining here design wise and character development. I will forget about how bad issue #6 was because obviously something or someone else got in the way there from what I can tell but at least its back to the premise. Plus Gail Simone I know will continue to write a solid enough story here. I did like her Wonder Woman run from 2006 I think. Mostly good stuff from that and I'm getting the same vibes from this. I hope she continues to have Rogue as the lead and figures out more character building situations for Rogue she deserves a good lead role! I am giving this a solid 10 just out of relief that it got back on track with the style I was really liking, please avoid mistakes like #6. Otherwise art is great just needs more detail but it fits! more

Another solid issue for the crossover, but also a little underwhelming considering how much I enjoyed this title's first five issues. It's great to have Marquez back doing interiors, but there's something a bit off with his art. Furthermore, while I do appreciate Salazar's attempts to try and flow with Marquez's work (assuming that's what he was going for), it's not quite the same, unfortunately. Aside from that, it was fun to see the Alaskan X-Men and Louisianan X-Men fight for a bit, and I liked the way it started in the first place.

The story doesn’t progress as much as I hoped it would, as the issue retells some of the scenes from part 1 of this crossover, but also provides some insight into the dynamic between the two X-Men teams, their leaders in particular. The conversation between Rogue and Cyclops felt natural and was the highlight of this issue. The rest of the book was mildly entertaining. Marquez‘s art looked a bit rushed this time, but stil better than most modern comic art. I just wish he had drawn the whole book. Salazar‘s art is not bad, but reading an issue drawn by several people is always kind of frustrating.

Meh. At least they explain (in a tiny way) why they are fighting each other. The inconsistent art is annoying but overall this is just....fine? Marvel keeps pumping out tons of $5 content with little substance and this is just more of that....still the best mutant book though.

This issue was a very mixed bag for me. Everything with Beast, Jubilee, and Calico was fantastic but the heroes misunderstanding fight scene is so played out and really took me out of the issue.
