Generation Hope #7 Review

Tagged with: Generation HopeGeneration Hope #7

The quest to save the new light from itself continues. Today I will be reviewing Generation Hope #7 . Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think.

So let’s talk about the book. With a super mind controlling baby taking over anyone who tries to touch it, the team has no other choice but to get a little bit personal. Using Kenji as a link, each member of the team goes into the babies’ mind and tries to convince it to stop this madness and allow itself to be born. Everyone fails miserably to connect with the child until its Teon’s turn. Luckily, Teon is pretty much a child himself and his simplicity in explanations easy the child’s fears and gives it a reason to be born. With the baby aiding in it’s own birth, everything goes off without a hitch. The population is returned back to normal and the child’s powers disappear until it hits puberty. The team begins their return back to Utopia when another crisis arises. Teon’s parent’s want to legally regain custody of him. And that’s the book.

So let’s talk opinions. This was an interesting book. Nothing too over the top but a nice feel good ending. I like the way we got to see some more of how each of the kids think. How their approach to life reflected in the way they connected to the baby. It made perfect sense that Teon would succeed. The birth scene was rather moronic, however. It just made me shake my head in the ridiculousness of it all. I’m also not happy with the general lack of action in this title so far. Both Generation X and the New Mutants had regular villains and enemies appear every issue. This let to nice action sequences where we got to see the kid’s powers in full force. So far we really haven’t seen the kids do much other than talk and run. I did like Laurie’s transformation into that creature. That was cool. The art in general was pretty nice. Clean, splashy and pretty with big clear expressions. I really hope that the stories start getting more action packed soon or this book will really go down the tubes. I can’t like a character until I see that character fight. Maybe that’s just me. Overall, the book was all right. That’s my opinion folks. Take it or leave it.

Generation Hope #6 Review

Tagged with: Generation HopeGeneration Hope #6

A new light has awoken. Today I will be reviewing Generation Hope #6 . Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think.

So let’s talk about the book. Cyclops replaces Rouge with Kitty Pryde as the liaison between Hope’s team and the X-Men. The team starts to integrate with their live and roles on Utopia. When a new light is detected, Hope and the team head off to retrieve it. When they arrive at the location, the find a madhouse. It seems the light has taken mental control of an entire hospital. Luckily, Kenji is resistant and uses his powers to leash the rest of the team and give them immunity as well. As the team explores the hospital, the find the source of the light. A pregnant woman is issuing commands, but it is the baby she is carrying that has the powers. Hope moves in to touch the light when the team is attacked by all of the zombified denizens of the hospital. And that’s the book.

So let’s talk opinions. I’m very happy with this issue. I’m glad that some of the focus is shifted away from Hope and onto the rest of the kids. We need to build them up a bit so we can really get to know them and relate to them. Without that personal connection, no one is going to want to read this or any title. I am also very happy to see Kitty Pryde as their liaison. Kitty would make a wonderful mentor, considering that she was in their position all those years ago when she became the new kid on the block and had to adjust to the realities of the dangers that surround her and her kind. Plus, she had Wolverine as her mentor and can definitely put that knowledge to good use. I like the new light and it’s powers. We need a new telepath. The overall pace here was nice. A perfect jumping on issue for new readers. The art was pretty cool as well. Very clean and easy to decipher images. All in all, a very good issue. That’s my opinion folks. Take it or leave it.

Generation Hope #2 Review

Tagged with: Generation Hope  X-MenGeneration Hope #2

Welcome to Akira, the comic book. Today I will be reviewing Generation Hope #2 . Please leave me a comment and let me know what you think.

So let’s talk about the book. So hope is faced with seeing the destruction of Tokyo until she realizes that its just an illusion. The dark light has taken over her mind. Using her powers of copying other mutant’s powers, hope manages to escape, but passes out from the strain. Idie then proceeds to cook Kenji. He flees to the river and is chased by Cyclops, Rogue and Wolverine. They engage in battle but Kenji transforms into a Godzilla like monster and heads towards the city. And that’s the book.

So let’s talk opinions. Other than Idie cooking Kenji and Gabriel speeding to save Hope, the kids saw absolutely no action this issue. I thought the book was supposed to be Generation Hope, not X-Men book 13. I want to see the five lights in action, and not only the villain. This is the future of all mutantkind and they need to man up and not be held back. If there is some understory that needs to be told, so far that is not evident. No sub plots at all. And no real revelation as to the connection between the five lights. (My money is still on some elemental level connection.) This issue was not as good as issue #1. It had less action, less story and for some reason, uglier art. That’s my opinion folks. Take it or leave it.
