Extraordinary X-Men, Volume 1: X-Haven by Jeff Lemire
2.0
There isn't an original idea in this collection. The Terrigen Mist is the end of mutantdom is very much M Day/Endangered Species via The Legacy Virus storyline. The use of Old Man Logan to fill in for Wolverine is an absolutely boring choice. Time travelling mutant has intimacy issues due to killing all of the X-Men is very X-Men 1991. Toss them all together and throw the new mutant haven being in Limbo, and you have a limp shrug of a story.
If you've never read an X-book before, you might want to check this out, as Lemire is a competent writer, but if you're already famliar with much of the X corner of the Marvel Universe than this will only make you nostalgic for the better written stories that it emulates.
