X-Treme X-Men #10

X-Treme X-Men #10 – This issue is mostly devoted to the back stories of some of the team, we already got Kurt’s (Nightcraler) backstory.  With this issue we get more backstory for the Scott “Cyclops” summers and his world and American Civil War with mutants.  Then we learn where James Howlett (Wolverine) and Hercules came from and why they knew each other.  Then we meet this worlds Namor and then a Nazi Xavier.  Unfortunately the team is in a confused state not knowing who to fight or trust.  Once again I think this could be very interesting.  As a student of alternative history it will be interesting to see how this all works out and well the team will have to kill Xavier even if he turns out to be a good guy.

Uncanny X-Men #1

Uncanny X-Men #1 was surprisingly good for an X-Men book.  The whole do not reveal who was squealing on the mutant revolution was a bit corny it worked in the end.  I’m not really sure what to mention in detail but the comic was good, but it could be better if there was more focus on the team than just on Cyclops.  Not just that but I do not understand why some of this back story with the new team was not just used in this book instead of stealing pages from the Uncanny Avengers.
