I Marauders sono prigionieri di Destino, i cui piani sono chiaramente ignoti e decisamente non semplici. Anche lui, a parole, vuole curare Franklin: sarà vero, o vorrà solo sfruttare il suo potere per chissà quale scopo?

Intanto, X-Men e F4 sono diretti alla sua isola... dopo l'inevitabile secondo round dello scontro tra loro.
Che però è anche il punto debole della storia, perché si svolge su Krakoa.

Come sono arrivati superando le difese di Krakoa e di Black Tom?
Su un isola abitata da migliaia di mutanti entrano, raggiungono chissà come la sede del Consiglio, scoprono quello che gli serve (che, peraltro, è che NON sono stati loro a rapire i loro figli, e anzi pure alcuni X-Men sono scomparsi, e quindi potrebbero semplicemente allearsi ma invece no, troppo presto) e tornano via. Sconfiggendo agilmente orde di mutanti esperti grazie a un'unica prova di forza di Sue.

Ci sono telecineti di livello omega, gente in grado di intrappolare, di costruire blocchi fisici, di fare praticamente tutto. Ma loro entrano ed escono tranquillamente.
Ripeto, capisco fosse necessario, ma non doveva essere per forza così... sproporzionato e illogico.

Vabbè, si avvicina il teamup, quanto meno.

E... Sentinelle Destino??

If the last issue didn't already cement my dislike of the Fantastic Four. Seriously. What is wrong with these four super-powered humans that they had to think the worst of the Krakoans. NO ONE IS KIDNAPPING YOUR PRECIOUS KIDS YOU MISGUIDED IRRATIONAL IDIOTS.

- Sue Storm didn't do shit with her superpowers and her clout when mutants were persecuted but now that mutants finally have their own nation and safe space on Krakoa she went #AllLivesMatter. Peak Karen energy.

- All four of them barging into Krakoa under stealth and eavesdropping on the Quiet Council? What a shitty thing to do. When the mutants went to the Richardses' house they ASKED to come in. Even after Sue started getting high-handed and violent outside on the street.

Fuck the Fantastic Four and their unchecked privileges. Whatever plans Dr Doom has, if it's for mutant supremacy, I wholeheartedly support.

Definitely headed for a collision of everybody in the next issue.

I enjoyed this well enough but I still feel this is written by a huge fantastic four fan. Sue Storm can wipe the floor with about 20 or so mutants herself?

There are plenty of mutants who could one on one take any/all of the FF but as with the last issue it just feels like they want the FF to be awesome and let them dust mutants for fun.

I'm sure a bigger FF fan would love this narrative but I just find it a bit tedious and ruins the enjoyment for me a bit.

That aside it would have been a 4 or 5 star tale, built up well and set up nicely for the next issue.

Great!

This is such a lovely continuation of the House of X series. I’m very excited to see where this goes!

Literally everyone is being a dick. "Let's control the teenager"
Did Doom just make sentinels?

[Roman Colombo · Rating 5 out of 5]

A great second issue, though Invisible Woman is getting a bit too sanctimonious. Also love how Doom copied Krakoa for Latverian mutants.

Very nice story line!

I enjoyed this issue. In fact the entire story is good and I love how they illustrate again how powerful Sue Richards is. But was it just me or are these books getting shorter?

[Henry Blackwood · Rating 3 out of 5]

Fun but a little underwhelming at times.
I’m still going to pick up the next issue.

[Jesse · Rating 4 out of 5]

Doom's being tricky and mutants are looking to come out on top. Reed's a jerk, Sue isn't faring much better. The art is good, if a bit looser than the Dodson's usual.

[Mana · Rating 5 out of 5]

Oh course Doom has a plan. Hope Krakoa sees the invasion of the FF as a learning point. We don’t want another Genosia.

[Yasser Maniram · Rating 5 out of 5]

A wholesome issue with the whole family.
