X-Force: Sex + Violence by Craig Kyle
3.0

This is the Swan Song for Craig Kyle's X-Force run. Does it live up to his series, which was mostly good-great? Well...

Domino has done something bad. Without spoilers she's upset the guild and the hand at the same time. Wolverine gets involved in this and tus comes in the sex and violence. A lot of both, a lot of half naked people, and a lot of bloody deaths. By the end you actually do get the X-Force team coming in but not till the very very end.

Good: Really dug the fight scenes. Brutal, intense, and very very bloody. I also thought wolverine and domino together was pretty funny and good banter throughout. Nice and fast paced too so never boring.

Bad: The storyline is kind of one note heist style movie storyline. Just save the girl and kill everyone. So kind of lame there. I also thought the X-Force wasn't in it enough.

Overall this was a fun little end note to the X-Force run for Kyle. While not as amazing as the great moments in the series it still holds up as worth reading for fans of the series. A 3 out of 5.
