review 1: X-Force was the best x-book at the time. When it was cancelled, it was replaced with the next best series in all the other x-books. The art by Clayton Crain is amazing. It looks painted, but they may have been using digital effects to get that look. Half of the art is done by Mike Choi. His art is very clean, without the painted look.The writers put the characters through the wringer. Just about all of them get either shot or cut up. It's kind of relentless the way everyone gets put through hell. And since this is the lead-in for the Necrosha storyline, nobody will be given a chance to rest up before getting messed up again. Makes me almost wish they would have an issue with just a little talking and relaxing. No, the hell with that, this book is all about the vio... morelence. Speaking of violence, this is probably the most violent collection that ever featured the X-Men. Blood and dismemberment is on almost every page.
review 2: Fun in a sick way, pointless in another. I think we get the "black ops" team thing now, and the novelty of the clean-scrubbed X-Men brand getting some "ick" on it is wearing low.Can't tell why, but I compare this to Dark Reign-era Secret Warriors or the underground Avengers (forget which one that was) and this seriously comes up short for me. Is it 2-dimensional characterisations? Or utterly black-on-black designs (like some under-budget horror movie that can't afford to light the cheesy effects)? Or maybe writing that moves the plot without making me care? less
