X-CAMPUS #4 (of 4)
Written by FRANCESCO ARTIBANI
Pencils by ALESSANDRO VITTI & ROBERTO DI SALVO
Cover by TODD NAUCK
It’s an all-new, all-different version of the X-Men as told by some of Europe’s greatest comics storytellers! In this vivid re-imagining of the X-Men mythos, everything is not as it seems and teenaged versions of Cyclops, Beast, Wolverine, Iceman, Storm and Rogue face a threat worse even than super villains or race-destroying viruses… HIGH SCHOOL! Xavier’s students face the deadly Sentinel robots, but is it Magnus who unleashed this threat, or someone even more dangerous? The gang will need some unlikely allies if they hope to stop the Sentinels’ wave of destruction, and not everyone will make it out alive!

Another anthology comic. Let's get ready for some crappy new artists and decent-to-bland stories!

If they were gonna do that, then the Heroic Age: Uncanny X-Men should've just been the Uncanny X-Men Annual (that comes out randomly every 5 or so years).

 

[Havok83]

Why is Emma in her underwear? Did she forget to put on pants before she left the island?

 

[UraniaChang]

I love GIUSEPPE CAMUNCOLI's art.

Yay, good old fashioned superheroics! I'm not looking forward to the inevitable crappy new artists (get your head in the game, Cebulski!), but these anthology comics are usually pretty fun.

 

[Havok83]

Is every X-men arc going to get a supporting mini series?

OHMYGOD, that issue looks fun as hell!

 

[Specter313]

Yeah, the battle of the French thieves should be fun. (Yes, I know Fantomex isn't really French, he just acts it.)

 

[Manic]

I love that snatching the diamond from Batroc made a "GANK!" sound effect. That's like one step away from "YOINK!"

Also, the idea of Rockslide (of all people) wearing a disguise is funny enough, but dressing like Casey Jones? Rockslide and Anole seriously need their own ongoing. Or at least a mini.
