Every single time I open a Grant Morrison comic I fear for the worst. So, when it's good, I'm fucking HAPPY. Luckily, like his Batman and Robin or We3 comic, Morrison's New X-men starts off with a bang.

So what's this about? Well after the successful X-Men movie they decided the X-Men comics needed a revamp. Don't blame them at all. Who better than the guy who fixed Justice League? So we take out all the extra X-Men and focus on a few, mostly the originals, or more famous ones. Got Beast, Jean, Cyclops, Wolverine, and more. But it focuses on them so much that each encounter feels fresh. You also have Xavier as a key role and something major happens with a long lose sibling. Oh, and like the back of the book states, millions of mutants die. Talk about a "oh shit" start.

Good: Really dug all the interactions. Wolverine is both funny and charming here. I thought the fights were great, gritty, and brutal. The twist and turns keep coming and you feel like people can ACTUALLY die. I also thought the story, despite getting a bit bizarre closer to the end, is still really interesting.

Bad: The art. I know it's unique. I Love Jupiter's Legacy. But damn, it's rough here. Some of the female characters look fucking horrendous. Also, towards the end gets a bit too weird and shifts to the bizarre Morrison side.

Overall this is great. Extremely entertaining, solid dialog, and good pacing. Grant, when good, is damn good, it's a shame he's usually fucking insane. This is worth reading though for sure. A 4 out of 5.
