House of M by Brian Michael Bendis
5.0
House of M gets referenced all the time so I thought I better see what everybody was going on! I'm still new to comic books so these Event books can be a confusing, but I know who most of the characters are in this one (I only had to Google Simon Williams/Wonder Man!).
My Scarlett Witch knowledge comes from wikipedia, so I'm not sure too on the events that preceded this book (added to my list!) but her mind and snapped, making her powers unstable which is causing a lot of problems. She alters all of reality and our familiar heroes wake up in a universe in which they actually seem to be happy but mutants are the dominant species as the next step in evolution. Only Wolverine and an unnamed mutant girl with some kind of memory unlocking power remember the truth.
The tension in this book his high, the event definitely feel catastrophic, the stakes are high and the assemble cast is handled well. They have a united purpose while also trying to deal with the devastation of what has happened. I was excited to see Doctor Strange getting involved because I'd not seen him properly in comics before.
Awesome! Now I need to read what happens next!
