UNCANNY X-MEN #536

“BREAKING POINT”

When the X-Men left the militaristic alien Breakworld, its political structure was reduced to ashes. It didn’t stay that way forever. Now a warship is crossing the gulf of space, with a mission that will strike the lives of star-crossed lovers Colossus and Kitty Pryde with all the force of a meteor. Join them as they discover what the vessel them means for them, mutantkind and the rest of the Earth. All courtesy of KIERON GILLEN and TERRY DODSON!

    Another new uncanny x-men book!!! 3 weeks in a row??? Can Gillen go 3/3 and make Uncanny X-Men continue to skyrocket toward the top of my “favorite ongoing titles” list?

    I never bought Uncanny before, but the continuation of the Break World story was enough to interest me.

    This is my second issue after jumping back on, and I’m psyched. Between this, Uncanny X-Force and Aaron’s Wolverine, it finally feels like the right time to jump back into the X-verse head first.

    We all knew Fraction leaving the book would be great, but I don’t think anyone saw this coming. I was on the verge of dropping all the X-Books, but my faith in the entire line has been restored.

    I am not quite ready to crown Mr. Gillen as the X-Savior, but he gets these characters better than Fraction. There is still some roughness to the story and Greg Land is returning… But, I am still optimistic.

    I’m buying X-Men again! Whgat wonderful feeling.

    Also, it’s bittersweet but beautiful to have Gillen writing Abigail Brand again. I miss S.W.O.R.D….

    Gillen’s last Uncanny issue was a blast to read, I’m really looking forward to this one!  The Dodson art team certainly helps too.

    Really enjoying this new arc. I did not dislike Fraction’s run but it did seem to lack excitement at times. Dodson’s art is awesome. The x-universe is looking good right now.

    The art’s the only thing I don’t like about this book.  Big, thick black lines make me think of coloring books.  (which may be my own pathology and not the Dodson’s art).  Still, for the art to be the only thing I’m not digging in Uncanny is a step in the right direction.

    Nothing wrong with this book so far.  My one nitpick is this: Didn’t the breakworld folks have whiskers in Whedon’s Astonishing?  Like BIG whiskers?  Where are these whiskers?

    @WheelHands  X-Factor has been consistently good since PAD’s Maddrox mini series.  Also, I’ve enjoyed al of Carey’s run on Legacy.
