Review: X-Men Legacy #275
With the new Marvel NOW! initiative, X-Men Legacy got the axe to be replaced by a new series with Legion as the lead. So Legacy #275 is the finale comic of this mostly Rogue led title. As finale’s go… it’s just kind of there.
Basically, because all of the other characters are off doing their own thing now, Rogue and Mimic are the only ones in this formally team-title. And they are thrown together into a minor (by X-Men standards) fight where Rogue is allowed to give a whole bunch of speeches as she dictates about how she has changed over the past few years.
On its face that’s not necessarily a bad thing, I mean, she has changed and this is a big moment for her, dumping Mags, going off Avenging, becoming something more than herself… but did we really need a whole comic of speech bubbles?
So over all, a lackluster ending, but hey, could be worse… could have been a clip-episode.
