X-Treme X-Men #2
SCORE: 60
You guys know how I give a new comic series I am trying five issues
before deciding to get rid of it or not. X-Treme X-Men #2 is the second
issue of this series I have read. This series is not endearing itself to
me one bit. X-Treme X-Men #2 is just as bad as the first issue. I am
definitely on the side of not reading this series after the issues I
have already purchased. Will I even make it to five with this one? There
will be spoilers in this review.
The recap on the credits page makes X-Treme X-Men #2 sound very
interesting and exciting. What an amazing world where mutants are
marshals and helping deal with other mutants. There are also protests
against mutants in X-Treme X-Men #2. The thing is most of X-Treme X-Men
#2 is all about hunting down, and fighting Ogun. The spirit of this
assassin Ogun is able to possess people. He can then leave when the
X-Treme X-Men get there to take him down.
Wolverine gets in trouble with this tactic at one point within X-Treme
X-Men #2. Phoenix wants to defeat Ogun on the psychic plane. The others
are not sure that is a good idea. Things take a bit of a turn as Scrap
is introduced in X-Treme X-Men #2. I am not sure if Scrap is a giant
robot or cyborg. Scrap wants to destroy the mutants for genetic purity.
He trashes Sage and Bishop in X-Treme X-Men #2.
The whole idea of the bad guys being for Purity seems twisted and
backwards. Who would be fighting for dirty and disgusting thing? X-Treme
X-Men #2 is a bit confusing there. I know X-Men in the past have been
guilty of attacking Christians. I wonder if that is part of what is
going on in X-Treme X-Men #2. I am not clear one way or the other at
this point in time. The art in X-Treme X-Men #2 is good. There is also
plenty of action.
The issues families can have with X-Treme X-Men #2 are violence, blood,
bad language, lack of attire, enticement to lust, and more. Ads can be
found throughout X-Treme X-Men #2. There are twenty pages of content
within X-Treme X-Men #2. There is also a nice picture showing the next
issue of this comic book. It looks like Wolverine and other X-Treme
X-Men will be fighting Scrap. I suspect Scrap is partially robotic. I am
not sure how he is so big and just human.
