Another Grant Morrison book I really enjoyed!

The book opens up with a stand alone issue of Xorn trying to help figure out a crime. It's both horrifying, sad, and beautifully done by the end. Then we jump into a main story with some crazy X13 stuff. This is more typical morrison as we get into some weird shit going on here. Last storyline revolves around the young kids, calling themselves the "new x-men" making a stand against their teachers. Magneto might have taught them TOO much. Then we get some drama here and there, the biggest being Scott and Emma affair!

This is Morrison honestly firing on all cylinders. I fucking LOVED the stuff with Xorn here in the first issue plus all his stuff with the special X-Men kids. I also dug the hell out of the rebel kids storyline and shows how powerful the X-Men really are. Oh and the Emma and Scott stuff? Amazing. The only negative is the X13 stuff was just okay.

Overall, great stuff. No wonder this series is held in such high regard. A 4.5 out of 5.
