Krakin’ Krakoa #25: New Mutants #3 Review – Who Are The (New) New Mutants?
The third issue of New Mutants is the first solely written by Ed Brisson with art by Flaviano, and it’s a trip back from space to Krakoa and a whole new gang of youthful mutants.
I’ve gathered the shift from the Hickman-driven classic New Mutants in space story is relatively divisive for some readers, but I honestly enjoyed the return to Krakoa with a new crop of youngsters.

Through three issues X-Force continues to improve and build on the promise of House of X. It’s one of my favorite Dawn of X titles, and issue three by Benjamin Percy and Joshua Cassarra did not disappoint!
Today on Krakin’ Krakoa #24 I’ll answer:
- How X-Force is the X-Men Dawn of X title most consistently fulfilling the promise of House of X
- What we’ve learned about the Death of Professor X
- The mystery of the 5th assassin!

November 27 2019 – the day before Thanksgiving – was the first new comic book day in approximately 4 months with at least three new X-Men comics released on the same day.
Appropriately, my varying reactions to the releases are a healthy reminder that more is not always better, and that one of House of X and Dawn of X’s greatest strengths has been a healthy sense of curation (Marvel as a whole is otherwise comically overproducing books these days). Big picture, New Mutants is a book I expected to enjoy, and lo and behold, nothing has changed, whereas X-Force had a make-or-break second issue actually sell me on many of the comic’s bolder first issue choices.
And then there’s Fallen Angels #2, which I’m increasingly convinced is the only absolute dud of the Dawn of X.
