Marvel Comics Universe and The Exterminated #1 Spoilers and Review follows.
Farewell To Father and Son As Extermination #5, X-Force #1 and Uncanny X-Men Annual #1 Loom While X-Men Disassembled Roars?!
The book opens with the storyline catch-up and creators’ credits page.
The first story shows Hope and Jean Grey (Cable’s daughter and mother)…
…coming to terms with the older Cable’s death…
…at the hands of his younger self…
…who sticks around as part of a new X-Force title debuting on December 26, 2018.
The second story focuses on Cyclops, Cable’s dad…
…grappling with his insecurities about being a dad.
It’s tied up in a story where…
…a has to save his son…
…and come to grips with being a father, husband and dad.
This is interesting since Cyclops is set to return from the dead in Uncanny X-Men Annual #1 out on January 23, 2019.
The Pulse:
I was surprised that this book didn’t spoil Extermination #5 that is out on December 19, 2018. The two stories were touching showing the importance of Cable the man and father as well as Cable as the boy and son. Decent art too for two entertaining stories. A GORGEOUS variant cover too. 7 out 10.
