The stories are already kind of coming together. I still don't quite have a handle on what is going on in X-men but this issue was a lot more fun. Marauders, Excalibur, and New Mutants are the kind of fun comic book silliness that I enjoy. X-Force is the kind of edgy comic book silliness that I don't enjoy. And Fallen Angels is so atrocious that I spent almost as long trudging through it that I had reading all of others combined.
Overall these are fun, and I'm still really intrigued about how this is going to end (if I ever get there).

I’m basically reusing a review across this series, as it seems to hold as things go on. Overall it’s a bunch of highs and lows. Some books are consistently excellent (Marauders, X-Force, Wolverine, and it looks like X-Factor & Hellions will join that group) while some are middling to mediocre (Excalibur being the worst of the lot, plus Cable being so-so, and the main X-Men book varying in quality from one issue to the next). I’m still reading, so the overall whole is quality, and the whole setting that they’ve established is still unique and intriguing. It’s like a house of cards that we know is doomed to fall eventually, it’s just a question of when and how)

Definitely more weak stories in here than strong ones. Don't think I'll be carrying on with all the dawn of X stories from here.
