Magneto is meditating and Cyclops and Emma Frost are investigating why. Elsewhere, Wolverine, Colossus and Psylocke are fighting the mutants that released the predators upon Utopia Island a few issues ago. The fight starts out as something the heroes cannot win and quickly turns into an easy fight that shows that the heroes were never threatened in the first place. There’s a lot of that in the X-Men world these days and that doesn’t make for a compelling narrative when you know the hero is in no danger. Land is Land. He draws women with mouth so wide the state of California can fit in. They all look the same and the fights are not very interesting. This series needs a serious reboot.
Rating: 7/10
