Uncanny X-Men (2018) #11 by Matthew Rosenberg, John McCrea, Juanan Ramirez, Salvador Larroca
4.0

Whoa, talk about renewing my interest in a main X-Men storyline.

So this is a huge issue. It's broken into 3 sections where get different points of views of the same event. It follows Cyclops coming out of the shadows. Logan following him around. Also Blindspot's major storyline contributing to the overall arc. By the end it all comes together to push the next storyline forward.

Good: Loved the fuck out of cyclops here. Not as "hard ass" or Magneto like but still holds his own. Not only telling Captain America to go fuck himself, but also facing off against villains and taking them down without pause. Wolverine storyline is classic logan and watching him and cyclops together is wonderful. Blindspot storyline is both sad yet very realistic and well done.

Bad: A little long. To replay the same scenes in different points of views can feel a little jarring and the art change is weird as well.

Overall, great shit. I really want to read more of this main storyline from Rosenberg. Uncanny X-men is BACK!!! A 4 out of 5.
