This latest X-Men off-shoot intrigues me; it’s a group of characters introduced in Matt Fraction’s run on Uncanny X-Men in a team led by Rogue and Hope. This should be my least favourite book out there right now, but it’s so much fun it’s untrue. There’s something about the way Kieron Gillen writes these characters that makes me care about them, despite any initial worries; it’s some classy scripting, and the story is no slouch, either. The art by Salvador Espin is decent, too. It draws you into the action and only has a few off moments in the entire issue remaining, for the majority, a visual delight. This is a series to look out for, and hopefully it lasts for a while.
