I wasn't expecting much from this one, but actually really enjoyed it! It sets the stage for an interesting new villain and included some familiar faces. I kind of want more.

Artwork was great; vibrant colours and easy to follow action. Not too much narration, either, which was nice.

A fun freebie, and it's got me curious about upcoming issues.

No sé cuándo me pondré al día con todo el tema Krakoa. Por suerte tengo contexto general y he leído alguna que otra miniserie anexa y pillo info de otras cabeceras, lo mínimo para que me haya gustado este anticipo de una figura misteriosa haciéndose con el mayor símbolo de hermandad con la humanidad de la Nación Mutante (y que le pregunten a Steve Rogers los problemas que pueden causar que alguien con terribles intenciones usurpe un traje asociado a un símbolo de heroicidad). Anexo a esto tenemos el "teaser" de G.O.D.S., una nueva propuesta argumental de Jonathan Hickman con Doctor Extraño y un nuevo encontronazo con fuerzas elementales de la lucha del Bien y el Mal desconocidas hasta para el mismísimo Hechicero Supremo.

Appreciate the synopsis in the beginning. It’s nice to not have to go in blind.

The mutants’ Hellfire Gala is being held on Mykines Island.

The arrival of an infiltrating soldier who hates mutants—a representative of Orchis. Attack on the Treehouse.

Mystique is concerned. Fortunately, Cyclops is already on it.

Some good color work. And nice action sequences. Other drawings don’t hit, and almost feel incomplete.

Steve Rogers declined his invite to the party. He just wants some peace and quiet. So instead, he’s at a café, working on his sketches.

The Captain America segment loses steam; the X-Men are much more intriguing.

I love the Teasers of a Gala & a new Captain in the first half of the book. The artwork and the questions it raised kept me into the short teaser.
I’m looking forward to the storyline with the Sentinels and the man leading them.

The Second half of the book features an interaction between Wyn and Strange. Although brief, I think it foreshadows something very serious.

Great artwork. Great interactions between the characters. Just enough content to get you excited for the future stories.

Free is for me

I have been a fan of free comic book day since the beginning. The stories are always very good and the lead in to the new issues is always exciting. This book explores what happens when the mutants and humans have drawn apart too much. The situation only needs a catalyst, and someone is willing to be the first to take action.

The avengers and x men are teaming up.

Good color artwork. A modern take on defending the world. The way sentinels look like iron man armor is amusing. Captain America is still a hero!

Cool Stories!

Always been a Marvel fan! Loved the stories, but so wish I got read more of them and see where else they go, but I guess the cliffhangers are there to leave wanting more and seeing more of the respective stories!

Decent

I don't have much to say about this since it doesn't have much content. But interesting enough. 20 words mandatory extra words.

buenas historias

Me gusta este tipo de historias, buscare el siguiente numero. Aunque he visto otras historietas interactivas que ayudan a tener una lectura más entretenida.

Since I got my kindle I've been catching up on Free Comic Book Day releases (expect to see a lot more popping up on my feed LOL).
I love Marvel and the Avengers but I'm not too familiar with X-Men (I know I know, this needs to change, I'm working on it).

A fun, quick read with a fantastic price ;)

Uncanny Avengers has the Avenger and X-Men teams intermingled. In the first story, someone has infiltrated the mutant island stronghold and steals the uniform of Captain Krakoa. This storyline was confusing, as it is obviously picking up story threads I have not read in previous comics. Another story has Captain America and Rogue working together to save the day. There is a reference to Deadpool at the end, and a mutant hunter is after a young girl. And lastly, a short introduction to a Doctor Strange and Wyn story.

Gerry Duggan writes his stories from a cuck chair.
