Hickman's New Mutants are so good.
I don't want him to leave after the first arc.
And Rod Reis is the new Sienkiewicz.
Great issue. The chemistry of the cast is amazingly written, and the art is beautiful. Loved the vibe between Sam and Berto, and the card game scene. Trying to stay positive about the switch up next issue, but man, that is going to be a rough adjustment.
Hard agree.
This was a really fun issue, particularly elevated by the art. Hickman obviously loves writing these characters, which really comes through. Reis, though, is selling the shit out of it. This book has the weakest premise of the relaunch and is a pure nostalgia grab, but I ain’t even mad about it. Hickman and Reis are that good.
Brisson is writing #4 too.
This. Hopefully Brisson can make some good stuff out of this new era. Don’t know how much you can do with that when your cast is.....Glob, Maxime, and Manon BUT maybe he can surprise us. NextGen was serviceable and maybe with the way Krakoa works, there can be a lot of cameos to distract me.
