X-Men: Schism
by Jason Aaron, Kieron Gillen
Man my X-Men reading is all over the place. This would have been good to read before I read Bendis X-Men and Uncanny X-Men run. Anyhow...
This is the story of two men, Logan and Scott, as they begin to drift apart. Both obviously care about the X-Men and mutants in general alot, but things are coming undone. After an attack by Quentin Quire, exposing all humans in the room's deepest darkest secrets, the world turns on the X-men. This is no surprise, but now the X-Men must fight back. This is where Wolverine and Cyclops can't seem to agree. This turns into a brutal fight between the two and ending with the separation of the X-men.
Good: I really enjoyed some parts of this a lot. Mostly wolverine talking to idle and also really enjoyed the moments where Logan and Scott respect each other, but then also the parts they are trying to kill each other. The Climax, while a bit forced, feels like a new start for the X-Men. Also, the beginning of cyclops going more radical.
Bad: As someone who likes Hope a lot, I felt she was just a side character here. I also thought the art, while sometimes good, could also be horrible (issue 2...) and also, like I said earlier, some of the plot points feel a bit forced.
This is a decent mini-event to show where the X-Men will end up. I guess next up is to read Killeon Uncanny. This is a 3 out of 5.
