review 1: I'm sure this book would have been just as great as the last if it hadn't been forced into the AVX crossover bullshit. A few milliseconds of character development/power evolution aside, it was just a drawn out chase and replaying of the exact same ethical dilemma I've already read in other books with the same characters. I.e., should hosts of the Phoenix be killed before they're allowed to wipe out worlds? But isn't this the exact same problem X-Force just faced when they decided to let Genesis (potential Apocalypse) live and go to the Jean Grey School? Anyway, this might have earned 2 stars, but I dropped it to one because I hate when the big bosses at the Big Two fuck up good things with overhyped events.
review 2: So this volume is a bit of a mess because Ja
... moreson Aaron has to deal with the unwieldy Avengers Vs X-Men storyline. That being said, Jason Aaron certainly tries to develop as many characters as possible including Warbird and manages to write a heart in most of this volume. While I enjoyed it, the timeline jumps around quite a bit and reading the story out of the context of AVX was challenging. Does this mean I will try and read AVX, probably not, but I will read the fourth volume of Wolverine and the X-Men:-) less

Big fan of Jason Aaron's writing, and as usual I'm a sucker for any Phoenix story written well.

Good choice, Wolverine. I can always count on you to do the right thing. Will you marry me?

New school brings new characters. Kid Gladiator, Warbird, Kid Apocalypse and more.
