745. X-Force vol 1 #29 ... #Mutant ... #X-Force ... #Marvel ...

[This is reviewed on 6th Dec 2017]

Cover looks okay as it is an early Tony Daniels but interior has guest pencils by an early Mat Broome waaaaaaay before he became good. So in short, the work kinda ... sucks? Hahahaha! For us anyway, the book is really bad especially he tries so hard to give us what was the trend then i.e. posing and snarling figures and his facial features on characters are just plain bad ... inker Bud LaRosa was no help either especially when the normal speech moments if you know what we mean

For storyline, as the cover has spoiled everything, it is back to Arcade which means Murderworld which means either Arcade has a contract on one of the members of X-Force or he has a vendetta which predictably means he is kidnapping them direct or kidnapping someone else to get their attention. See? Very predictable and no longer a relevant threat to the world of X because honestly Murderworld makes no sense even if you have bucketloads of money and as an assassin, his fee must be astronomical and the X-Men must have realized that to keep his operations running, he must have a few successful hits ... which would mean the X-Men can let murderers run wild? Hmmm ...

On a more personal character development moment, we see Terry aka Siryn is becoming a regular drunk owing to personal issues and Warpath is falling for her except that he has problems expressing himself. And so typically he makes a mess of matters everywhere!

Ratings: 3/10
