I'll admit: I've never been the biggest X-Men fan. The movies were okay, but I wasn't alive or reading comics when some of the bigger storylines occurred like "The Dark Phoenix Saga" or "Days of Future Past." I read Jim Lee's run in the early 90's and have sampled it here and there. This current run by Bendis which also includes
All-New X-Men is pretty good stuff, albeit nothing revolutionary or awe-inspiring. It's fun, that's about it. This book is about the semi-evil X-Men: Cyclops and Emma Frost and Magneto and their new group. They're going around the world recruiting new mutants. Cyclops' power is awry. & Magento is secretly trying to take down Cyclops. The script by Bendis is crisp and entertaining. The art by Chris Bachalo is terrific. It's a good start. ***
