Been in an X-Men kick lately and most of the Hickman stuff I've read were pretty good so I'll give this a go

Seems like House of X will show us a side of Charles Xavier that we haven't really seen before, and Powers of X will change the way we see everything that ever came before for the X-Men and everything that will happen from now on. Those are some awfully bold claims, but I like what Hickman has done so far. I have faith in him.

So, Issue 1 of House of X came out and it was amazing!

Indeed it was! Very much a game-changer as expected, and it was nice to see the FF make an appearance. I'm very much excited for Powers of X #1 now... we have seen a new beginning for mutant-kind now, but I think very much is not as it seems... there's just something truly bizarre about this, even for the X-Men, and I'm determined to find out why the whole thing seems fishy.

It can't be a coincidence that Professor X looks like The Maker.

So, about Powers of X #1. Talk about a total mind screw. A lot to think about in this one. Need to reread it.

Powers of X #1 Spoilers

Spoiler

I for one am SHOCKED that Mister Sinister ended up betraying the mutants in the future and proved to be untrustworthy. /s

Seriously, did anyone think that was going to end well?

 

[TheAnimationFanatic 3,543]

So, according to Hickman and many others, House of X #3 is going to be a big gamechanger in the story. I can't wait!

[TheAnimationFanatic 3,543]

Holy s**t, House of X #2 is a legit gamechanger! 

Spoiler

Not only is Moira MacTaggart officially a mutant with the power of reincarnation, but she just might be the most crucial figure in the Marvel Universe. 

Hickman, you mad genius. You keep finding new ways to reinvent the X-Men and we're only 3 issues in. 

[TheAnimationFanatic 3,543]

Spoiler

While I'm sad that we won't see the X³ timeline anymore, Powers of X #3 still kicks ass. And I'm looking forward to getting back to our X-Men.

Next:

Spoiler

"Once More, Unto The Breach."

Then:

Spoiler

"It Will Be Done."

Holy sh*t! House of X #4 was great, but emotionally bruising.
