I'm a well read grad student who's bluntly honest about all things, although I try to be most honest about myself.

Darker X-Men for more desperate times...

Uncanny X-Men (2016-) #1 - Greg Land, Cullen Bunn

I like, this, though.   They might have different reasons for getting together, and they might verbally jab at each other, but there's no sanctimony of the do-gooder here.  They want to save people, yes, but these are criminals, or at the very least, people who have sacrificed their own values at some point in their lives, and for various reasons.  

 

Not ideal, but very human.  

 

Archangel was destroyed by what Apocalypse did for him, and may or may not still be in the body that they're using a drone; Psylocke is trying to help him and spends an inordinate amount of time trying to wheedle a reaction, any reaction, that will prove that Warren is in there somewhere.    Sabertooth, still good due to the events of Axis, is trying to help, and doesn't want to be with the nicer, gentler teams: he doesn't know if they'd have him, and as he makes clear in issue two* he might not be comfortable being on those teams.

 

Magneto is desperately trying to save the mutants he can and mutankiind in general from extinction. 

 

Question, though: they have healers.   They make it clear there's one in this issue.   If that's the case, have they tried healers when they find out the mutant race in sterile?   

 

*I started reading it because BL was loading slowly and wouldn't really allow me to rate and review earlier.
