Exiles #72

Writer: Tony Bedard
Pencils: Paul Pelletier
Inker: Rick Magyar
Colorist: Wil Quintana


 

Plot: Set after the “House of M”, the Exiles are trapped on Earth #161 and are tracking a godlike creature that may help them get off the planet. They run into a world quite different from their own and have to track down one of their members when they get separated.

Review: The Exiles are thrown on a new planet where everything is different from their home. They are confused and forced to deal with an alternate reality all while trying find a way home. Never been done before. Pretty original stuff. Ha. Even the Exiles all come across as prototypes for the X Men group that were thrown out years ago and found in the back dumpster. The story makes me really not want to care one way or the other about any of these guys, but the art is pretty. Plus, this is #72, so someone must be reading it. Maybe Exiles is really a great series and this one just got away from the writer. Or maybe this is just bad. I am really not interested in finding out either way.
