X-Force 2022 in Review! Where Krakoa Keeps Selling Out

February 21, 2023 by David Bowen Leave a Comment

Credits: Ben Percy writes; Robert Gill draws; Guru-eFX colors; Joe Caramagna letters; Josh Cassara and Dean White kill the hell out of the covers, the only thing worthwhile here—all else is zombified compulsion

The last time I could give Mr. Percy’s Krakoan CIA title the benefit of the doubt was probably just before the Percy-helmed pseudo-event X Lives/X Deaths of Wolverine. Since then, both X-Force and Wolverine, but particularly the former and longer-running title, have taken embarrassing nose-dives.

I might check out the nearly finished, five-part “Beast Agenda” over in Wolverine once it’s all up on MU and report back here*. But after this mid-game report on X-Force, that’s it for me—until the true end, when we can all look back and marvel at Percy’s braided-narrative masterpiece, for the shaggiest of shaggy dogs that we already know it to be.

*Impressively, it’s Wolverine’s longest arc so far, consecutively, that is—guess that qualification is necessary! But the Danger and then Kraven debacles were each a waste of four whole issues, so my hopes aren’t up. Of course, “Beast Agenda” will segue into “Weapons of X,” about which Beast dropped a real heavy hint in an issue #31 data page that will titillate only the Percy diehards. These will likely prove to be a single “epic,” for what that’s worth.

X-Force by Benjamin Percy Review!

July 28, 2022 by Ben Johnson Leave a Comment

Krakoa – the new nation that Charles Xavier announced to the world in House of X #1 – was a fresh start for mutantkind. It heralded an era of mutant sovereignty and a unification of purpose that had never existed before among those with an X-gene. It’s a brand new world, but there are some things that no amount of mutant solidarity can change. In X-Force Vol. 1 – which collects the first twelve issues by writer Benjamin Percy; artists Joshua Cassara, Stephen Segovia, and Jan Bazaldua; and colorists Dean White, Guru-eFX, and Rachelle Rosenberg – it becomes clear that mutantkind will always be hated and feared, and will always need a group willing to take sometimes unsavory action to protect their own. But is the brutality inherent in the nature of X-Force truly worth the cost?

Domino (Marvel) Reading Order

May 10, 2018 by Dave Leave a Comment

Throughout her history, Domino (Neena Thurman) has been inextricably tied to X-Force and Cable, joining the team early in their 1990’s introduction and appearing on many of the various incarnations since.

Despite a great mutant power and character, Domino only had a few limited solo series prior to her 2018 ongoing written by Gail Simone. [Read more…] about Domino (Marvel) Reading Order

During the absolute peak of X-Men comic book sales popularity, an all-new Xtreme tactical strike team named X-Force was born. While initially and frequently fronted by Cable, the X-Force tag has covered a variety of X-teams throughout the years, tackling mutant problems too dirty or violent for the X-Men.

Below you’ll find a complete guide to X-Force comics throughout Marvel history, from the early 90’s through present day. [Read more…] about X-Force Reading Order
