I can see why this made so many top lists in 2021! By far the most interesting utilization of Krakoa era rejiggering. An actual culture emerging, through the young mutants there. An emphasis on being different than humanity in every respect and on restorative Justice. It’s just really excellent on all fronts. The only (slightly) annoying thing was the artist change up in the last issue. I hate when that happens, especially when the artist(s) are excellent. I really didn’t care for that last one, but the stand by for the series so far has been so great, the reader is spoiled rotten.
