Book Reviews of X-Statix, Vol. 1: Good Omens
Book Review: Absolutely best superhero/mutant series around.
Summary: 5 Stars
THE FACTS: writer: Peter Milligan, artists: Mike Allred, Darwin Cooke, Paul Pope; reprints "X-Statix" # 1-5. MY OPINION: I think it's the best mature superhero series being published yet. First of all, the stories (which seem very non-complicated at the first sight) are really original and make reader read all the book in one sitting. They are focusing on the very important fears touching many people today: fear of dehumanization. The world in "X-Statix" is turning living persons into objects in the most extreme way of all: it makes them sell their blood, beliefs, souls and finally life...all that for feeling that they have point in their lives (which seems to be lie all along). Young mutants are turning themselves into objects of desires of our society, society which otherwise would hate them. The characterization is great: the chatacters are really believeable. Milligan's drawings are made in the style of pop-art which is perfect for this kind of script. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED !!!
