"After reading several books from the Marvel Civil War collection, I was a bit tired of the Super Hero Registration Act. However, this series of GN's added some fresh material and fresh faces to the scene which made the concept quite a bit more interesting. I especially loved the character John Dee and his DNA dolls. What a riot!"
"So this is what the X-Men have come to? Marginalized by there only being about 200 of them, partnered with Sentinels--Sentinels for God's sake--and taking Tony Stark's help after befriending Captain America long enough to get the information they need.
X-Men, you people suck. No wonder Wolverine has (sort of) defected to the Avengers.
If this snapshot is indicative of the X-books now, I am sad. They act like also-rans in a world of powerful figures, can't beat a single Sentinel, and Toad--the Toad, for crying out load--is better at taking action that Scott Summers.
This is an X-Team that didn't even have any precautions for mind control(?) and didn't use their psychics to find out information in a person's brain.
The basic plot is that Domino, in the name of her leader Cable (who fights for Iron Man), breaks free some of the remaining mutants from the Mansion. When they hide out in a secret government vault, the original X-Men go on a buddy trip to show how useless they are and generally muck things up. Bishop cops out and sides with the government and soon there's a fake-fight between them that only happens because of mind control.
If you're still awake, the fight means nothing and then the mutants are caught in a death trap that only Tony Stark can break them out of. All sides work together to save the day, and the pro-registration folks come out shinier than Stark's armor. It's so uncritical and pro-registration as to be sickening--and completely out of place in the distrust-the-government world of the X-Men.
There is absolutely nothing interesting about this one, and it adds nothing to the plot of Civil War as a whole. Totally skip-worthy. (Library, 07/08)
"Scary....yes this can be read as a comic book, or as a warning for all those who think people who are "different" then them should be somehow confined & labeled."
