jaadu's Marvel Graphic Novel #5 - X-Men: God Loves, Man Kills review

    A timeless x-men issue!

    Wow! I really loved this issue! I have to admit that (like the New Mutants graphic novel) this was a pain to find, especially IN FIRST PRINT!!!

    anyways the plot is pretty smooth, the Purifiers (still present in x-men comics) are killing mutants and are ready to cause genocides of mutants! OMG I hate them! And yeah the x-men were on thin ice in this issue, especially since the all risked their deaths! I got so scared for Storm and Cyclops, they were sooooooo close to dying! But overall this issue is probably one of my favorite x-men plots, no wonder this graphic novel was reprinted numerous times!

    Goooo X-men! :)
