    A+X #2 Review

    No Caption Provided

    Cover - 4/5

    - Would I pick-up the comic based on the cover alone? Are the alternate covers appealing? Does the cover portray what happens in the issue?

    Art - 4/5

    - Do I personally like this artist's style? Does the artist stay true to the characters appearance?

    Colors/Ink/Lettering - 4/5

    - Does the work blend well with the artist? Is the coloring/inking enjoyable and easy to distinguish what's happening? Can I easily read the lettering?

    Layout/Flow - 5/5

    - Does the layout of the issue make it easy to read? Does the issue have a good flow of the plot and keep me engaged?

    Story - 4/5

    - Weighted Triple. How well did the issue further develop the current story? How well did the issue further develop the characters? Did I enjoy reading the issue?

    Verdict - 4.1

    - These have been fun issues in the spirit of the old Marvel Team-Ups. There is a good bit of comedy and the entire issue seems lighthearted. The covers are all pretty much the same for this series a simple pose of the characters involved and the A+X logo. Some of the variant covers are a little more eye catching. I really enjoyed the art from the Black Widow & Rogue story but wasn't a fan of Iron Man & Kitty Pryde's. Overall the stories are fun, we see Black Widow trying to relax on her day off before she gets interrupted by a Sentinel attack. Luckily another Avenger, Rogue is available to assist in taking it down. For the second story we see Tony trying to hire Kitty to work at Resilient. Issues arrive when some of the Brood from Wolverine & the X-Men #5 - Mutatis Mutandis, Part One: Congratulations! It's a Brood! were residing inside her nasal cavity. Tony has been working with Pym Particles causing the micro-Brood to enlarge. Again these are fun issues and are not supposed to have any bearing on the events going on in other comics, I recommend them to anyone looking for a fun read.

      One of the worst single issue stories I came across in the Marvel Now! age. 0

      The Black Widow is enjoying her day off in a beauty parlor until suddenly the place is under attack by a Sentinel. She battles the robot with little success until she receives help from Rogue, whom is now an Avenger just like her. Why is the Sentinel there wreaking havoc? This is something Widow wants to find out. -summaryI have no trouble admitting that Avengers Vs. X-Men (AVX) wasn't really a good story at all, in fact, it was the crossovers that were actually entertaining and for me even save...

      Girls Kissing and Kitty Pryde? What More Could You Want? 0

      The Overview: Here we are with another installment of Marvel's fun little team-up book. Off the bat, I must say this is better than the first. My biggest gripe with the first issue was that only one story seemed worthwhile while the other fell flat in comparison. This time around, we get two fun stories as advertised, and this is one winning formula.The Good: As I mentioned earlier, I liked both of the stories in this issue. They are nothing groundbreaking or essential, but they are both fun, li...
