Uncanny X-Men #537Kruun versus the X-Men. Today I will be reviewing Uncanny X-Men #537 . Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think.
So let’s talk about the book. Kruun has a plan set in motion. He has a bunch of mutant “cure” which he has used to incapacitate Cyclops, Emma, and some others probably. He “cures” Colossus and delivers a beatdown to him in front of Kitty Pryde, who he plans on killing with a knife made of Breakworld metal that can actually cut her. She runs to her teammates but finds them either unconscious or paralyzed. When her first few choices fail, she heads to Wolverine, who immediately senses Kruun and rises from meditation to face him. Kitty runs for more help but is confronted by Haleena, Kruun’s love who proceeds to cut her throat. Kitty falls into the middle of a ritual circle that Haleena has drawn into the floor. And that’s the book.
So let’s talk opinions. Well this issue was a lot better than the last two. It had action, tension, and some decent plot progression. I do still have one big problem with the story though. That problem is the unbelievability that the X-Men would allow themselves to get into this situation to begin with. On an island of telepaths, powerhouses, energy blasters, and untrusting people in general, Kruun was just able to get the drop on all of them. I don’t buy it. That is a hole in the plot big enough to fly a plane through. (Maybe it’s just me). Still, we had some good suspense this issue. We had Kitty being the resourceful woman we all know and love. I can’t wait to see Wolverine versus Kruun. Plus, I’m pretty interested to see if Helena is on our side or Kruun’s. Personally, I don’t think Kitty will die because of the ritual circle she is in. I am curious to see what the ritual will be. The art this issue was a monumental improvement. Much better face work and good imagery. Wolverine on the mountain was pretty cool. Overall, I’m not too impressed with this arc and I can’t wait for it to be over. That’s my opinion folks. Take it or leave it.
