CBR Review: X-Force #26

I recently reviewed X-Force #26 for CBR and, in the process, wrote the following sentences: "With the various mutant groups separated in an effort to divide Bastion’s forces, Cable has stayed with members of X-Force, Colossus, and Psylocke to throw off the Sapien League’s tracking, while Hope makes a mad dash for Utopia with Nightcrawler teleporting her and Rogue. The divided forces allows for Kyle and Yost to jump around a bit to establish what losses the mutants have taken — and what they’ve dished out in the process, showing us the aftermath of the Cannonball’s team’s encounter with Cameron Hodge and Cable and company doing some heavy damage."

CBR Review: X-Men: Second Coming #1

I recently reviewed X-Men: Second Coming #1 for CBR and, in the process, wrote the following sentences: "Beginning the third part of the trilogy of stories that include Messiah Complex and Messiah War, X-Men: Second Coming #1 does an adequate job of setting up the players in this event, but doesn’t exactly demonstrate what the plot will be. If you were to judge by what’s given, there doesn’t seem to be much of a plot set up beyond 'Hope returns to the present with Cable and some bad guys want to kill her using means that will be determined sometime in the future.' For the kick-off issue of an event years in the making, there’s a significant lack of depth in the plotting and not much here that compels to continue reading the story."
