House of X #1: Director’s Cut

What a fantastic start to a new series. I already hate that this is only going to be a miniseries, because this has so much potential. But considering all the buzz that has been going on about this series already, that's not terribly surprising.
That being said, I was expecting this one not to live up to my expectations, since they had been raised (again, due to all the buzz about it). And you know what? It actually did live up to those expectations.
This world the X-Men are creating is fascinating, and in many ways more ethical than the one that X-Man had created. It's a perfect contrast, just coming off of that series.
