Apr 08, Anne rated it really liked it Shelves: comicsgraphic-novelsread-in So this really happened, but everyone agrees to never talk about it again. Does that mean I can count it as a What If story? Not to mention, it doesn't exactly leave any loose ends dangling, so it's outside of the normal soap opera stuff. A stand alone, if you will. You have my vote Stand Alone Comic! I spent all day baking in the sun at a lake with the kids, and I'm a little loopy. What I'm trying to say i So this really happened, but everyone agrees to never talk about it again. What I'm trying to say is that I really liked this. Ok, so I know I'm not an expert on all or X-Men: No More Humans most of the mutants in the X- men's universe, but I honestly had never heard of Raze before this. Evidently, he's Mystique and Wolverine's kid? When did that happen?! As far as I can tell Or a future, at any rate. And, shockinglyhe's kinda evil. I can't imagine X-Men: No More Humans, though Does Wolverine have any kids who aren't jacked up? Apparently not. Anyhoo, Raze has teamed up with all kinds of bad guys from every dimension to create a beautiful utopia for mutants. And, subsequently, the humans gotta go. Now the X-men and the Uncanny X-men, with the help of Magneto, have to work together to bring them back. This leads to some great dialogue between Logan and Scott over who's the real douchebag killer. There's also an appearance by the not quite as Dark Phoenix from another dimension. Have you guessed how everything gets fixed yet? Yeah, ok. It's a pretty easy way out, but I gave bonus points for not turning this into a 30 issue crossover event involving the Avengers, Guardians of the Galaxy, Fantastic Four, and a few Hulks. Plus, an extra star for not trying to stick any Inhumans in this thing. Thanks, Marvel! Get this review and more at View all 8 comments. Feb 18, Jeff rated it liked it Shelves: comix. Just how many psychotic kids does Wolverine have? What time is it, Bub? And he does it. With mixed reactions from mutants. Beast is horrified. Cyclops blinks as much as you could tell behind those opaque shades. Magneto light Just how many psychotic kids does Wolverine have? Magneto lights up a stogie. Then we get some philosophizing, arguments, hand-wringing, mutants imported from alternate universes God, not the alternate universe concept again! This is, I believe, the fifth time this week in separate comics, that it's come up and the requisite good mutants vs. View all 13 X-Men: No More Humans. I definitely liked this book. It tells a fairly interesting story, one that couldn't be told in the normal X-books too many comics to coordinate. The premise is interesting, and it allows the X-Men to react to a situation they would never otherwise have to deal with, the complete elimination of all non-mutants. And it is interesting to see the various parties play off each other. I was particularly interested to see that Cyclops really isn't that much more radical, in this situation, than the I definitely liked this book. I was particularly interested to see that Cyclops really isn't that much more radical, in this situation, than the other X-Men. I'm sure there's an interesting essay in why Logan X-Men: No More Humans that Scott killing Xavier is such an inherently evil and unforgivable act when Logan himself has no compelling reason to believe that Scott was any more in control of himself at the time than Dark Phoenix was when she destroyed an entire planet of asparagus people, but those are issues that are just sort of quietly simmering in the background and not really addressed. I'm ok with that. These issues will take a very long time to fully sort out, if they ever are, and that's ok, too. The X-Men: No More Humans adds a lot of life to the story. That said, stay away if you haven't been keeping up with recent X-Men: No More Humans. At the very least, you need to have read X-Men: Battle of the Atombut it wouldn't hurt to be caught up in at least two of the ongoing book. If you have been keeping up, you'll be able to X-Men: No More Humans the underlying issues that add so much tension to the events of this book. You might also want to stay away if you're allergic to plot inertia. At the end of X-Men: No More Humans book, everyone literally agrees to walk away and pretend it had never happened. So it's an entirely isolated story that X-Men: No More Humans a reader who hasn't been entirely isolated. And I hate big stories with huge stakes that end up having zero impact. Obviously, that was X-Men: No More Humans mandate, and Carey did his best to write around it. But I would still rather that stories be allowed to mean something. View all 10 comments. Aug X-Men: No More Humans, GrilledCheeseSamurai Scott rated it really liked it Shelves: comicsmarvelsuperhero. Original Graphic Novel. Why don't we see more of these in the Marvel universe? It was so much fun to read something all at once with a beginning, middle and end. X-Men: No More Humans () | Comic Issues | Marvel It's unusual to see a standalone graphic novel insert itself so directly into current Marvel continuity. But with an ending that too neatly wraps up all loose ends and a lack of tangible impact on the X-Men universe, the story ultimately proves less compelling than the characters and their dynamics. X-Men: No More Humans. The X-Men's job just got much easier. The premise of this book is pretty simple as far as X-Men storylines go. The X-Men wake up one morning X-Men: No More Humans discover that every human on X-Men: No More Humans has mysteriously disappeared. Some, like Wolverine and his team, are understandably concerned. Others, like Magneto, are pretty happy about this X-Men: No More Humans turn of events. Or, failing that, at least build a new society on the ashes of the old. But where Family Business played out like a pretty timeless, general story aside from a few dialogue references to recent Spidey events, No More Humans flaunts its place in continuity. It's worth pointing out that, while the basic concept seems reminiscent of past and current X-Men stories the title alone evokes House of MNo More Humans never feels overly derivative. Yes, Uncanny Avengers is currently dealing with its own variation on the theme of a mutant-only world, but these two stories are so different in tone and style that it scarcely matters. The emphasis on continuity is both a boon and a blessing to this book. It certainly helps No More Humans feel more relevant to see Carey references recent developments and continue building on what writers like Brian Michael Bendis and Cullen Bunn are doing on their respective X-books. This OGN also marks the first appearance of any of the future Brotherhood characters from Battle of the Atom since that crossover ended. Wolverine and Mystique's son Raze serves as the de facto villain story, though he's joined by an entirely new Brotherhood of alternate universe versions of familiar X-foes. But on the other hand, the continuity-heavy approach creates some problems. There are issues with the way Beast is portrayed here. Carey positions him as the idealistic hero among the X-Men, refusing to accept or condone the desperate X-Men: No More Humans his teammates undertake in their quest X-Men: No More Humans restore humanity.
