  New Mutants is excellent. Ed Brisson and Jonathan Hickman work seamlessly together as the original New Mutants head into space to bring Cannonball home. It's a clean, space-faring story. The pitch is deceptively simple, the background references to the larger X-Men family of comics is in full force, and the characters each have a unique voice that honors the spirit of the ones you know and love. I did find myself forgetting about certain characters after a bit, but by the end of the debut issue everyone does something useful or interesting. That's really all you can ask for at this point, honestly. And while I'm not sure if New Mutants feels like it justifies its existence as part of the greater X-Narrative Hickman is telling, the earnestne ss and fun of the book overtakes those apprehensions. Rod Reis is a genius and everything looks fantastic. Everyone has their best face forward-- even Chamber! I hope word of mouth allows people to give this the shot it deserves. more
