If it's not going to be integral to the event story, then use the event framework to tell a fun, interesting and meaningful story for the characters. And this does that. You don't need to have read Empyre for this story to make sense. But it actively fits into and progresses the plot of the ongoing Dawn of X era so it wasn't just a bunch of filler nonsense with no stakes or impact. That said, I can see how the filler option is better in that you're not forcing people to read random event tie-in miniseries to get important plot points for the main books. But then there's no reason to read the tie-ins period, so why produce them? nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

What are the odds? And can even the X-Men handle two simultaneous crises? The X-Men return to the graveyard island of Genosha in a tale so crazy, it's taking the entire writing crew of the Dawn of X line to tackle it!

Look, I picked this up on Libby. I feel like I always have to say this isn't an ad, but it is a phenomenal way to read thousands of comics for nothing (as well as all the other library stuff) with a library card, and it's the perfect way to read comics you would only ever want to read while you have something else on because what you lack in shame and good sense, you more than make up in Severe ADHD!
Anyways, I picked this up on Libby to do that and for a laugh, as I thought ir actually might be some kind of nightmare cross-IP thing with the video game with the zombies and plants that this is explicitly evoking, and seemingly used as the seed for this event sidequest. Having read it, I kinda wish it had been. I don't know how that could have made it worse.
Now, I will say there are a couple of references and scenes that I didn't feel actively negative about, but they were very few and very far between what is just an embarrassingly awful storyline that I wouldn't feel as comfortable being so honest in my disparaging if it was just doing bad on so many levels.
Nothing in comics is sacred. I'm not actually offended or reverent, but taking something as hugely impactful and significant as M-Day and Scarlet Witch's guilt and trauma and burning what is a genuinely great idea that could be done so well with equal ridiculousness, pathos, and tragedy that would have me bawling is fucked up. Doing a messed up reverse M-Day mutant zombie apocalypse on Genosha and needing to call on help from others and it getting all complicated could genuinely be amazing. A side story in a big event where there's not enough time or care and random other shit is being thrown in isn't it.
This is the crux for me. It's a totally whatever forgettable comic with shitty mansplaining and just really weird misogyny, ageism, and not cool consent stuff, which is enough for it to be a shitty comic obviously, but it's all that and obnoxiously burns a cool idea and cheapens a character and her emotional impact.
The art is fine and has a couple of moments, but it's got that homogeneous Marvel house style thing going on like the movies.
I always feel awful writing a scathing review like this, but I stand by it and it's been cathartic getting it out. I wish everyone involved with making this all the best and better things. As amped as I've been, I'll almost certainly never think of this again, both because who cares and the powers of ADHD. ( )
