User blog:Johnnybravo44/X-Men: Regenesis Vol 1 1 review by Johnnybravo44

Ah. Regenesis. I get it. A clever play on 'genesis' always being in X-Men titles. Did they take it too far this time? Idk, but it's a little old either way..



This will be a bit shorter than my normal reviews, as there really isn't a whole lot to say. I'll just sum up what I can in one giant paragraph that should really not be just one paragraph. But oh well..

The world of X-Man fans needed this issue. It (almost) 100% tells who is on what side. That's the entire book. Rogue and Magneto split, Colossus and Kitty split, the 'younger' ones split. Nice to see Glob Herman, Toad, Avalanche, and a couple others even choosing sides. So apparently Agent Brand committed an act of 'beast'iality with Beast-pun intended. Irma (or was it Phoebe? or Celeste? crap..) hates Quentin Quire, so that's really the only reason they're staying on Utopia? lol wow.. I actually am a little surprised with Storm staying on Cyclops' side (you know, not counting when preview artwork already revealed this), that was one case I didn't predict. A little annoying to see Havok and friends already back on Earth. Sorta gives away the end of the Legacy arc. And where's Korvus? Not that I care for him, just curious.. Hurm. Perhaps he gets left in space. Oh no! This issue sets up Havok and Polaris' return to X-Factor, and I did enjoy that. Psylocke turned down Wolverine's offer. But that's not a shocker either.. And she also turns down Cylops' offer of X-Force..or is it X-Force? Anyways, I'll give this book a 4.5 out of 5. It was definitely needed, but the random tribal scenes kinda weren't, plus there were a few other random issues I personally wasn't too happy about. Sorry bout that.
