[Molly™☺ · Rating 3 out of 5]

A muddled mess of a book that relies on small moments to add any kind of value to the experience. It is one that requires wider knowledge of the concurrent X-Men runs to fully enjoy, and for that alone, it makes it hard to recommend for casuals. With a flip-flop narrative, Marauders Vol.2 has a few great panels, but it feels like a largely sinking experience.

actual rating 2.5 stars

la première moitié absolute banger, la deuxième moitié on se fait un peu chier + l'artstyle est moins beau
CELA DIT, Emma, Kate et Ororo reines du monde

What may have been the best Krakoa X-Men title fails to stick the landing.

Oh, the first half of this is great, from the response to Shaw's murder of Katherine through the Gala and to the aftereffects of that.

It's only afterward that the title loses its drive as it meanders through plots in the last few issues with the only saving grace being its attention to character arcs, mainly focused on the Hellfire Club.

And then we get a big reshuffling of the cast because the next author didn't want to give attention to those that Duggan has spent two years on. Sigh.

These will remain two great HCs from the Krakoa era, but in the future I might stop reading after the Gala.

This book sums up the entire run, it was mid. I never truly felt there were major stakes and it felt more as an advertisement for the Hellfire Gala book that came out around this time as well. The art was ok and I only recommend if you enjoy the Krakoa Era, which even then there are other runs I'd suggest before this one. Storywise, I felt myself rolling my eyes occasionally to the bits that were solely put in there to make the internet trolls happy such as Bobby's relationship. It felt forced and put in there to be queer-bait. Read if you want, it's wayyy down my list. Grade: C

[Joshua Wilson · Rating 4 out of 5]

I really want to give it three stars for a couple of moments and the art towards the end, but I'm gonna let it keep its four-star status.

The second half of Duggan's Marauders run is excellent. Some of the best moments of the run are in this volume, but the worst moments from this run are also in this volume. The run is never bad, but at times it does become mediocre to average. If the worst you can say about a run is that sometimes it's average, that's still a pretty good run. Marauders, from beginning to end, is a fun romp with political intrigue and competitive backstabbing.
