review 1: Just a solid read for me, I really like Fraction's take on the X-Men (this is coming after I've read some Brubaker, and Aaron's Schism, some Ellis (just a note to myself, Fraction's take on Cyclops is more sympathetic/positive compared to Ellis who definitely makes Cyclops a bit of a bossy punk haha) and I know I'm all over the place re: continuity)...the art at first didn't grab me but I grew to like it. I enjoyed the character development and Fraction's take on Cyclops and Magneto's return. While the Nation X stories were uneven, I liked how they did seem to tie together with the main arc. I'm a fan of Fraction his X-Men stories!
review 2: Good story, picking up just after the X-Men and other mutants have moved to Utopia. Problems abound on a logistical le... morevel, such as the island sinking (as it's just an asteroid floating) not enough food, etc.The biggest development here is the arrival of a certain Magnetic personality, a bitter enemy, and what Cyclops will do about the arrival.There's also some friction with Namor and the Atlanteans.The book ends with the more or less return of an old teammate thought long gone, thanks to the intervention of someone powerful...The rest of the book is 15-20 little stories called Nation X, which cover many of the island inhabitants and day to day happenings there.A good book, lots of storyline development and action, worth reading, if nothing else, helps show the start of the move towards Schism. less
