“Jason Aaron’s enthusiasm and Daniel Acuña’s discipline make this book a solid read, and a surprisingly strong entry in a mini-series event book that until now I wasn’t entirely sure I cared about. As a reader, I don’t love seeing Cyclops and Wolverine coming to blows, physically or ideologically. I prefer them as grouchy begrudging best friends that have seen and done it all, mostly side by side. I may be alone in that as a reader, but regardless of my personal preference, I don’t yet buy the split we’ve all been told we’re headed for. But that doesn’t make this a bad comic. In all the ways that count, this is actually a really good comic…”

“Fallout from Mike Carey’s Age of X event continues to be the primary conflict both physically and emotionally in “X-Men Legacy” as the team fights the two remaining Legion personalities still loose and causing havoc, Styx and Endgame. It’s a nice change of pace considering that too frequently when an “event” ends, we’re given a quick exit and little to no ramifications post “event.” Sometimes, of course, that’s a welcome respite from an event we didn’t like or were tired of in the first place. In the case of Age of X, though, some very interesting threads were left hanging and now Carey is doing an admirable job of dealing with them…”

“Bryan Q. Miller delivers in “Batgirl” #24 a powerful, inspiring, and emotionally satisfying ending to his little series that could, cut short before its time…”

“All of Scott Snyder’s plot threads weave together beautifully as a story that’s been building for months finally comes to a head in this last issue of “Detective Comics” before we head into re-launch. Graced with exceptional co-art by Jock and Francesco Francavilla, which could have been frustrating but manages to work nicely, Snyder pulls no punches as his epic story comes to a close…”

I wanted to post a panel from Marjorie Liu and Phil Noto’s X-23 #13 because the whole damn book was so beautiful…but I couldn’t find one single panel that really worked in a way that made the absolute awesomeness of this book clear on its own, so I decided to give you a full page.  Enjoy!

From X-23 #13, art by Phil Noto:

“This is exactly the kind of comic I feel like we need more of. It’s pretty kid friendly and appealing, with strong young protagonists, good solid friendships, and I suspect, eventually, some nice messages. I’m not sure how engaging it is for an adult audience on the whole at this point, but not every comic should be for every person, or we’d have tepid stories indeed. Variety, she’s the spice of life, kids!…”
