All-New X-Men: Inevitable Vol.1 - Ghosts of Cyclops

by Dennis Hopeless

More than ever, hatred and fear has made the world a dangerous place for mutants. But as the few remaining X-Men retreat into seclusion, a handful of mutant teenagers refuse to allow their destiny to be decided for them! And no one is more concerned about their fate than Scott Summers, whose young shoulders must bear the heavy weight of the terrible acts committed by his adult counterpart. Cyclops is joined by three of his timetorn teammates - Beast, Iceman and Angel - as well as the All-New Wolverine, Kid Apocalypse and Oya. Together, they're heading out on the highway, looking for adventure, intent on writing their own futures! But when they encounter the baleful Blob, their road trip may end before it begins...

This was an average read, nothing special. I like some people on the team and others I haven't formed an opinion yet. I still don't know how I feel about the Original X-men being in the future. A part of me, feels like they need to go back soon but I do like some of them.

There was some funny moments and nice interactions between the group but not enough for the average story line in this volume.

I just hate how in this book and the other X-men books, they don't tell you what happened with Cyclops. It might help with younger Cyclops, because I just feel like he's whining. The rest of the people in the X-Universe may hate Cyclops but in my opinion Cyclops never did anything worth hating for or they judge him harshly for what other people in other superhero groups have done, sometimes even worse than the things Cyclops had to do.

It almost feels like they don't know what to do with the Original X-men since they are "stuck" here for some reason.

Story wasn't terrible and I'll give the next volume a shot, but I hope it leads towards some type of conclusion soon on some of the questions we haven't been given like Cyclops death or why they can't go home.
