This isn't Discord. There is not nearly enough John de Lancie.

Review for New Mutants.

Story: The teams settles in to their new home and investigate Blink's appearance's.

Thoughts: I am not an X-Men expert in any way shape or form. I know of their important storylines and famous runs by top notch creators but the only x-team I cared about was X-Factor seeing as how they are in another sub-genre of crime noir but New Mutants are easily going to become my number two x-book. What DnA are realized with the Regenesis is that there will be plenty off people will want to start with some new books and they are taking their time to give us a new direction for the team that makes sense in context with Schism and show-off what each of the characters personality's. Also seeing as how Blink is an even more of an obscure character they do a smart job to make her a mysterious figure that we as readers want to know more about her. Also I love the fact that the villain for this arc is a black metal band, you would think with how much crap metal has gotten over the years more people would do this. I know that DnA aren't demonizing all of metal but you readers know what I mean. As for David Lopez's art I like it, it's a nice full style that make people look like people. Also I have no idea if this is going to be a subplot but I really like the idea of their neighbor spying on them.

Verdict: NM is a very accessible to readers who know next to nothing about X-Men lore and it has a good villain motif. This is a buy.

Also if you get the reference you get 5 brony points.

Then again, sometimes that's not a good thing. This issue was...unsatisfying, to say the least. It held together, and it's not that it was bad or anything, but it wasn't the kind of story one's come to know and understand when reading the title. Now, while that's not bad per se, the issue is in the fact that there were some instances of characterization that didn't quite fit.For example, Nate doesn't seem to recognize the term 'par-tay'. Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't a decent portion of X-...

I loved the Exiles, old and new it was always a good series, but I'm a sucker for Elseworlds. Blink was sort of their leader, a girl who can port and throw a good port knife. I was both saddened by her death and happy to see her back to the living. I have been waiting for a bit of a spotlight on the Blinker and this is what we've been waiting for. Regennesis didn't stop Unfinished Buisness and that relives me. I was worried that all we would get out of it was Skinny Cable. The book starts and en...
