Dark X-Men #1 Spoilers and Review.
The book includes a page that triples as a Fall of X storyline catch-up, dramatis personae and creators’ credits page.
We learn that Cyclops brother Havok is a new relationship with his ex the Goblin Queen.
She has something called a Mercy Crown a demon Cerebro of sorts that seemingly works like Cerebro concerning sensing or touching mutant minds.
A group of X-Men are on a mission to free the captive Gimmick of the Children of the Atom X-team.
Orchis wants to keep here and has the android Wolverine named Albert on their team?!
The Goblin Queen joins those X-Men in their fight with her X-Men not called Dark X-Men in the book.
At the end of the battle, Archangel has been taken captive while Gimmick was liberated.
Orchis seems to have an ace up their sleeve in the form of another Goblin Queen who professes to be the one “true” one?!
The Pulse.
An intriguing issue with solid art and a pretty eclectic and cool roster. Pretty accessible for a debut issue. 8 out of 10.
