Fanlight Zone - Richard Coryell
Mar 18, 2026X-Men #27 continues to push this new version of the X-Men forward and keep readers on the edge of their seats. The threat from the Danger Room mixed with the mystery of who hired them is enough to keep any reader engaged. If you are not reading this series, it’s a good time to give it a shot when you’re at the shops this week. Read Full Review

AIPT - Collier Jennings
Mar 18, 2026X-Men #27 shifts the focus from its mutant heroes to a new group of villains, with mixed results. With Cyclops promising retribution, the next issue is primed to put this new Danger Room to the test. Read Full Review

Weird Science Marvel Comics - mrgabehernandez
Mar 18, 2026X-Men #27 gives you a sharply constructed villain spotlight that finally pulls the “Danger Room” concept into focus, anchored by crisp pacing, chilling character work, and visually clear storytelling that respects your time. On the positive side, the recruitment vignettes, the emotional gut-punch of Glob’s condition, and the way everything cleanly ties back into Cyclops’ current nightmare at sea make this feel like a well-planned chapter rather than interchangeable middle-act fluff. On the downside, a few over-expository speeches and somewhat generic techno-organic visuals keep it from hitting truly elite territory, especially if you want more page time with the actual X-Men processing what is happening to them.

KPB Comics - A.S Tiger
Mar 18, 2026X-Men #27 is another issue in a long list of slow-paced, establishing issues that Jed MacKay has written. There remains little urgency and excitement in some of these arcs, and this one, more than any other, has the feeling of truly being “filler.” Read Full Review

Most of the time, MacKay‘s writing is simply awful, but I gotta admit, I didn’t hate this issue. Even Netho Diasz‘s art is getting better. Having said that, this is still Cyclops‘s Unlikeable X-Men and I’d prefer the X-Universe with all of them gone or - in case of Magneto - returned to villain status.

Massive exposition dumps abound and flashbacks. Boring generic villain. More Glob. I almost fell asleep 1/2 through the issue. It’s so low tier mid but at least the art remains high quality with Diaz fighting for his life to make this script enticing.
