X-Force #39

X-Force #39 kicks off a new era of the book with a bang. Percy, Gill, GURU-eFX, and Caramagna have made this the sleeper book of the X-line, and these new developments are adding up to make it into something very special for readers. This is yet another excellent issue of an amazing book. Read Full Review

X-Force #39 is an efficient issue that features politics, team building, tons of characters getting a chance to shine, and good art. As we wait for Beast to get his due, the team seems to be on track for a new era and resurgence. Read Full Review

In the wake of Beast's expulsion and Logan's exit, X-Force feels like a team book largely lacking its team, but X-Force #39 delivers a rebuilding phase in a single issue that manages to take stock of what came before and deliver a new status quo and mission. Read Full Review

Gill delivers some beautiful art. The action was visually stunning. The characters look great and I loved the style of the imagery and how it evocative it is. Read Full Review

This soft relaunch shows what this title still could be. Let's hold on for the ride! Read Full Review

Absolutely phenomenal!! This continues to be one of my favorite books along with wolverine also written by Benjamin Percy. I can't say enough about Percy's run it is consistently great and is making this lifelong x-men and wolverine fan very happy. I love it!

This book is consistent, unafraid to try new things, shake things up, but it always feels like itself, like Percy and X-FORCE. And, in this day and age, 40 issues in. That is RARE.

This was a good transitional issue, where some things are closed up, like Logan walking away from X-Force, and other things are set up for the next arc. And the setup for what comes next was very fun to read, from Sage finally getting to take charge to the Quiet Council delving into their views on recent X-Force events and Laura being recruited into the team. Out of all the cast, I would say Sage gets the most to do, and it is for the best. Finally free from Beast's terrible rule over the team, Sage has hit the ground running, setting up a much less menacing headquarters, reaching out to Laura in a way that felt sympathetic, and having plans to run the team with a lot more morals, which is really in line with her characterization througho ut this series. I'm curious to see how that will play out, as we have yet to see what everyone else really thinks about these changes. The only complaint I have about this issue is that the action scene with the Beast creatures from space felt kinda forced and out of place, and was overall, not needed to get everyone together in time for the surprise reveal at the end. Even if someone is not an avid reader of X-Force, I would recommend they check this issue out, as the Quiet Council gets a lot of page time here and shows off how dark and corrupted they have all become. And if you get hooked, it looks like whatever happens next will be a wild ride. more

A nice gateway issue of sorts. It's a little weird to me that Charles is ready to just let Beast be, but it's not a huge deal. Colossus officially joining the team hopefully means we'll finally be getting some follow-up on that story with Mikhail controlling his body. Also, Kid Omega showing up at the end was kind of random, but I'm still fairly intrigued.

The art's consistently great, and the individual scenes are a lot of fun. The big picture plot is mighty unclear, though. Also, as enjoyable as each comic relief scene is, having Deadpool and Wolverine both playing the clown is a bit of overkill. It's a fun read, but not a great standalone comic.

This is incredibly... bad. The Quiet Council just lets Beast go unpunished? He literally almost destroyed Krakoa, he murdered Wolverine and cloned him to create an evil army! What the hell is Xavier thinking? And I'm also not into Laura and Piotr joining X-Force.

Everyone's out of character and stupid decisions are made.
