    Default REVIEW: Wolverine and the X-Men, #21

    After the events of "Avengers Vs. X-Men," it seems only fitting that Jason Aaron and Nick Bradshaw would take the mutants to the circus in "Wolverine & the X-Men" #21.


    Full review here.

    The Frankenstein heir was actually introduced back in Schism #2. Either way, I'm getting tired of the new Hellfire Club. I just don't find them interesting or even really believable, even as far a comic book goes. They just come off as "forced" evil to a point of a caricature to me.

    Well, Aaron has already said here they ain't going anywhere...
    That's right! Al Gore invented the internet, let's all go kick his ass!

    I got your inconvenient truth right here, motherf*&¨%!

    It was about time they developed the other Hellfire Brats. So this issue tells us more about Baron Maximilian von Katzenelnbogen. I can't wait to read more about Wilhelmina though, she's really cruel.

    Yeah, sadly, I know! lol I just find them one-note caricatures in all honesty. Oh well, it's not enough to make me drop the book because I've really enjoyed it overall.

    Last time it turned out to be such a great issue.

    I kinda like Kid Frankenstein, and disliking the leader is presumably deliberate. But the black kid is annoying, and the girl is loathsome and uninteresting. Every time she opens her mouth I want to cease existing. And it still stretches belief that a telepath or two couldn't annihilate them in an instant.

    Did'nt really like this issue. The book is up and down with me. I enjoyed plenty of the X-men and kids stuff, but I just really dislike the Hellfire kids. I just can't buy them. I know the Marvel Universe affords wackyness, but I've just never liked it when it used it. The Frankenstein stuff was just dumb to me.

    At least 20 was decent.
