    “MONSTROUS”

    The epic story pitting the X-Men and the Marvel Monsters comes to a startling conclusion! Rising star Nick Bradshaw (UNCANNY X-MEN ANNUAL) joins writer Daniel Way (DEADPOOL) to bring you the most exciting monster fight ever shown in a comic.

    Previously:

    Cyclops, Emma Frost, and Wolverine have traveled to Tokyo with the devastated young X-Man Armor to mourn the sudden deaths of Armor's mother and brother. Their funeral plans are cut short, however, when Tokyo is attacked by a group of monsters psychically controlled by the mutant Mentallo, who is holding the city hostage in order to blackmail his oil-drilling employers at Roxxon.

    After fighting off the monsters in Tokyo, Armor and the X-Men follow the beasts back to their source: Kaibutsu Jima, a.k.a. Monster Island, Mentallo's basse of operations. Unfortunately, the strain of using her ancestor-derived powers, recently amplified by her mother and brother's deaths, knocks Armor unconscious mid-mission. As an injured Cyclops stays behind to watch over her and plan their next move, Emma Frost and Wolverine continue to investigate the island...and fall right into Mentallo's clutches!

    Well, that was a nice little twist 0

    The writer has done something very, very interesting here.   He made me really enjoy the ending to a story arc that I didn’t give a darn about.   I’ve loved the space storyline.   This one, not so much.   I found the bad guy and the premise to be pretty dumb.   And the only thing that made it worth reading was having Armor deal with the death in her family and the conflict in whether to be more (stereotypically asian?) loyal to her blood family or her X-Men family.   Also, I haven’t been the b...
