X-Men: The (fan fic) Series

X-Treme X-Men #5

Review: X-Treme X-Men #5

X-Treme X-Men has really picked itself up in these last two comics. With a steampunk vibe and more reliance on storytelling than being completely random (which can be fun if done right), this two issue arc was fairly good on all corners.

You had a nice rounded story, the characters were well played, and the quirky part was just the right level. As I said with #4, it felt like a full fledge story that could have come out from any comic, and that’s a good thing.

Governor Howlett had a great moment in this too which is just underplayed enough to make it pretty darn awesome. The kind of scene we need to see Earth-616 Logan to address what with recent events.

It looks like in the next one we’ll be getting some background on this version of Kurt, so that should be fun and I find myself looking forward to it.
