crookedtreehouse 's review for:
Uncanny X-Men by Kieron Gillen, Volume 1
by Kieron Gillen
While Jason Aaron's run on the X-books is inconsistent, and Mike Carey's run was mostly dull rehashes of old comics, they mostly seemed focused on villains that made sense. The dialogue may have been clunky, the hero's personalities a bit murky, but the villains had a purpose.
This book presents Sinister creating a world of Sinisters being Sinisters because as a child, he was...happy.
If you're willing to embrace the incredibly stupid premise, you might enjoy this. The art is solid and bright, which is a welcome change. But I just couldn't invest myself in the plot. Also, there was a bare minimum of interpersonal growth among the characters, which had been the saving grace of the previous runs.
