Cyclops: Seeing Red by Alex
Paknadel, illustrated by Roge Antonio, the cover artwork by Federico Vicentini,
is a short five issue mini-series. In this series, Cyclops, leader of the X-Men,
is alone and without his visor he uses to keep his powers in check. He is also stranded
behind enemy lines with Reavers (mutant hating cyborgs) hunting him. Things are
further complicated because he also has a young girl in tow. He is going to
have to use all his wits and savageness to keep them both safe. Can he?
This is action packed thriller with body
horror. The art is great. The Reaver are
absolutely disgusting.
There is a small plot hole, I think, but
maybe I missed it. It seems they don’t address why he can’t just call for help
telepathically since he is friends with so many telepaths. You would think that
is worth trying.
I read each of the five issues through Marvel Unlimited. The trade version
that has all the issues together will not be released until early November. I
enjoyed this solo Cyclops outing.
