Some parts of the dialogue feel a little disjointed but the art fills in the blanks. And damn is the art good. Strange panel layouts, gorgeous character work and amazing writing all work together throughout to tell a fun story. And the four alternative versions at the end gave me shivers from the shear weight of emotion in the characters. Read it. Just do it. Absolutely awful. The drop in quality with this writer/artist combo was so dramatic I had to wonder if I dreamt the gloriousness that was the first 4 volumes of this series. The writing was dry and boring. The only attempt at humour was jokes about the (kinky) sex the team were having. I couldn't tell if the story made sense because the writing was so bad. There was no explanation for events that ended in the last volume (Is anyone looking for Kitty? What happened to Peter? Where have the students gone? Why did they relocate to San Francisco?). None of this banal storytelling was helped by the art/colours. The palette is dirge blue/brown/grey, making the figures impossible to distinguish from the background and leaving all action void of any impact, because you can't really see what's happening. The only saving grace to this that it partially hides some of the worst line art I've seen in ages. Favorite line, "Emma is that you? I didn't recognize you with your legs closed." Loved everything about this, the art, the writing and especially the alternate reality stories that I'm assuming happened on "other Earths". This was dark and still occasionally humorous, just like I want my X-Men stories to be. aucune critique | ajouter une critique
Appartient à la sérieAstonishing X-Men (vol. 3) (#25-30 + Ghost Boxes #1-2)
"The X-Men are called to the scene of a murder that appears to have involved heretofore unknown mutants. The team's resident scientist, Beast, discovers that though the victim was indeed a mutant, his mutation appears to be artificially produced. The team races to a spaceship graveyard in Indonesia in their search for the murderer, who they find huddled over the mysterious Ghost Box, preparing to activate it. The murderer reveals himself to also be a mutant, but commits suicide rather than give the X-Men any information as to his, or the Ghost Box's, origins. With mysterious, artificially created mutants popping up out of nowhere, the X-Men must struggle to unlock the mysteries of the Ghost Box: What is the device's purpose, and why was it sent to Earth?" -- from publisher's web site.
