BKV Begins With a Bang,
By CK Burch "Writer" (Boise, ID) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Ultimate X-Men Vol. 9: The Tempest (Paperback)
This is the first trade featuring Brian K. Vaughn's writing for Ultimate X-Men, and it's well worth the pickup. Vaughn cuts to the quick, giving us the anger and differing reactions of the X-Men's recent loss. From Colossus goading Wolverine to attack him to Storm's radical makeover, you can feel the difference in tone and the gaping hole Henry McCoy has left. Beyond this opening, Mister Sinister steps into the fray, a crazy (or is he?) nutjob committing serial mutant murders. The mystery of who Sinister works for and exactly how crazy he is all comes to a head on the powerful final page, something I'll not spoil. Brandon Peterson's artwork is beautiful, showcasing here his transition from pencil and pen to his later digital works; a great volume if you're a fan of either, and the perfect volume to pick up if you want to see either at their top game. "The Tempest" sets up the next volume very well without feeling like an incomplete story, something very rare in comics, and yet done as if it took very little effort to do so. High caliber work.

This story deals with the feelings of the x men over the death of hank, and seems to be leading into age of apolcalypse in the ultimate universe.

This review is from: Ultimate X-Men Vol. 9: The Tempest (Paperback)
this was a good start to BKV's run, picked up right where Ult. X-Men left off and characterization the characters they should be. The art was decent. **Spoilers** pretty much this book introduced Northstar, Sunspot, Mr.Sinister and Apocalypse. All but Sinister were pretty brief in the story. Sinister was sort of interesting, talking to himself, killing people nearly murdering Bobby and the Professor which is pretty good. The relationship between Bobby and Rouge is good along with the good characterization of Bobby and how he feels him position on the is different now. overall a pretty decent book i guess i'd recommend it for hardcore fans, but not so hardcore should look for the book cheaper somewhere else.
