Wolverine and the X-Men Episode 2 Review

Written by Jordan Lurie
The second episode of “Wolverine and the X-men” shows the audience that he show is on the right track to become a fan favorite but still suffers some issues from the first episode.

X-Men: Divided We Stand Review

Written by Jordan Lurie
DWS was 2 issues of short stories by various creative teams detailing the lives of various X-men after Cyclops disbanded them. It’s not entirely fair to judge these issues as a whole so I will go through the 10 (sigh) stories and give each an overall grade.Danger Room was about Cannonball and Husk and was written by Mike Carey and penciled by Brandon Peterson. After seeing his sister Husk again Cannonball gets into a random…
