X-Men: Schism #2- I felt that #1 failed because writer Jason Aaron failed to show the setup of the spilt between Cyclops and Wolverine. #2 is only slightly better. We see some of the problems between Cyclops and Wolverine as the duo have a disagreement over what to do with Quentin Quire however Idie seems to be the one who will play the big reason for the spilt. It’s obvious…too obvious! We don’t know what the problem between Cyclops and Wolverine is but it has something to do with Idie and I have a problem with that. Jason Aaron has been playing up the relationship between Wolverine and Idie to the point that any blind man can see Idie will play a big role in the coming event. Frankly, there’s no need to be so...obvious.
FF #7- After last issue’s front-to-back showcase about Black Bolt, writer Jonathan Hickman continues his story of Black Bolt’s return and I continue to have a problem with it. This series is supposed to be about the FF but now we have 2 issues where none of the FF even showed up once! I’m not impressed.
Brightest Day Aftermath: The Search for Swamp Thing #2- I was terribly disappointed with #1 and although this issue wasn’t great, it shows good potential. Issue #2 picks up with Constantine meeting up with Superman and the exchange between Constantine and Superman was the highlight of the series so far. I still can’t understand why they can’t pick someone else to replace Alec Holland as the “soul” of Swamp Thing, but hopefully that’s something that will be answered in the last issue.
