Spoilers, Top Story

Marvel Comics Universe and X-Men #5 Spoilers and Review follows.

Dawn Of X Gets WEIRDER…

…Plus Some Big Returns!

We open with a storyline catch-up page with a dramatis personae.

Then, we see Wolverine hunting mutant Serafina, most associated with ye olde Children of Vault, whose…

…mutant powers is an affinity for machines.

The X-Men recruit the next generation to hunt her down with Darwin, Synch and X-23 Wolverine II.

Knowing the risks, they still decide to take the mission.

The rest of the Children of the Vault have joined Serafina in her cool decommissioned Sentinel base; they are Sangre, Perro, Aguja and Fuego.

The X-Men provide cover for their younger stealth team…

…which seems to work, but…

…when inside this Sentinel HQ it appears the X-Kids are in danger!

We pivot to the near future and the X-Kids have been missing for over 3 months which corresponds with over 300 years for some reason.

The Pulse:

A convoluted plot, with cool character returns, and solid art. 6.5 out of 10.
