Uncanny X-Men #16

by lucstclair on July 19, 2012

An AVX tie-in! The Phoenix Five attack Sinister City, but Mr. Sinister’s arsenal knows no boundaries… and no mercy!

 

The Pros

The best AVX tie-ins are right here! Underestimating Mr. Sinister could be the Phoenix Five’s fatal error, as Sinister has countless back up plans. When every citizen in your city is a potential soldier (even the livestock), than I too would have a smug look on my face like Sinister does. There’s an arrogance on both sides of this siege (especially Namor) and I’m loving every panel of it.

 

The Cons

For those of you who enjoy the AVX series and don’t really care for these tie-ins, you might want to skip this one.

 

The Outcome

This was an amusing comic with a confident & cocky villain being one step ahead of his enemies. Good stuff, I can’t wait for the next issue. Written by Kieron Gillen & illustrated by Daniel Acuna. From Marvel Comics.

Our Score:

6/10
