Ultimate X-Men, Vol. 8: New Mutants
by Brian Michael Bendis
Bendis keeps the momentum going with another really good volume for Ultimate X-Men.
This time we have Emma frost enter the picture. FAR different from the version we got in the regular 616, this one wants so start her own club of Mutants, but more for peace than fighting. Beast is all trying to figure out what to do with his life. Wolverine is dealing with more internal issues as always. And Angel comes on the scene, and him and Storm have a special bond right from the get-go. Oh also there is a issue where Wolverine has to some some shady shit to protect mutants and it's amazing with a lot of emotion.
Overall, this is a really solid volume. I really loved the intimate moments with the characters. Especially storm and Angel, or beast and Xavier, Cyclops and Jean and so on. All worked well together. Also some big plot progression with major deaths happening in this volume. I think Bendis on this title did wonders, sad he's leaving next volume, but he did well here.
A 4 out of 5.
