    X-Men » X-Men #8 - To Serve & Protect, Part 2 released by Marvel on April 1, 2011.

    Short summary describing this issue.

    No recent wiki edits to this page.

    After braving the lizard-creature infested sewers beneath Manhattan, Spider-Man reveals to the X-Men just exactly who they are up against. But this doesn't explain the rash of disappearances of outcast teenagers. Why have they vanished, and what do these kids have in common? The X-Men must use their best detective skills to discover the secret, but nothing prepares them–or Spider-Man–for the surprise villain who is pulling all the strings.

    A Charming, yet Somewhat Excessive Sequel 0

Within the last few years, the X-Men have been so focused on survival that we do not get many stories like this one, and fo...

    Shallow and Pendantic 0

    No i'm not making a funny Family Guy joke with naming it this however I was thinking of American Dad (you know American Dad the show that tried to be political but said forget it and has become a phenomena ever since by mirroring the first 4 season of good Family Guy sans the forgotten good cutaways, while Family Guy tried being political for the the last 3 and never got the memo from AD about politics not being funny yet still tries to cram Macfarlane's views down our throats)  when I was givin...

           Overall:     TL:DW- I really enjoyed the issue and the art, while it took me a little to get used to, is something I'm liking the more I see it.  Story was good, pacing was decent, but Spider-Man was written very weird, to me. At least in comparison to the current ASM run with Dan Slott. 4/5...
