Grimlock ♥ Ultra Magnus

I read the first issue of this, went, 'meh,' and didn't even give it another thought until I got this on sale.   (To be fair to me, I thought it was another series because there are so many X-Series out, but I was glad to find out it was this.)

The art is amazing, beautiful, and very evocative.   Emotive, too.   Just everything I could have hoped for, and it all matches the story telling - which is a fast paced action story with moments of quiet reflection, and a whole bucket load of character development. 

How do the time displaced original X-Men deal with how crappy their lives have turned out?

Oh, they're just loving that.   Oh, they are dealing just fabulously.  (< -- proof that we still need a sarcasm font.) And adjusting to a world that doesn't hate them is awkward, and running into some of their children, seeing themselves kissing their teachers (whom may or may not hate younger-version of them) is super confusing. 

Oh, yes, this is full of both angst and humor.   Very fun.   I wish it hadn't ended so soon!
