Home / Powers Of X #5
This is the best X-Men stuff since Claremont and Byrne were arguing on the phone every day. Every issue is teeming with revelations and more questions that are worth thinking about long after you've closed the book. The cover alone tells us that it's not only Charles who's growing more than flowers. Hickman hits all of the right notes with all the cast, from Forge to the White Queen. It even has some of the best Namor dialogue ever. It's not only fun, it's super dense, much like the societies formed in black holes that are in charge of everything. Except Galactus and the Phoenix apparently. Buy this book, eat a flower, and take the ride. Highly recommended for the open minded X-men fan who is able to let the past go, anybody who wants a moore complex superhero-centric book, and those who are so very glad that Axel Alonzo is gone.
