The Outhouse - The Greatest Comic Book Forum

[GLX]

You know what time it is? It's time to review and discuss an issue of Uncanny X-Force. Let's get to it.

Uncanny X-Force #34

• FINAL EXECUTION races to its thrilling conclusion!

• X-Force brings the attack to the Brotherhood, but there is dissension in the ranks.

• Genesis faces the truth about Apocalypse and his destiny!

If you can't make it to your local comic shop, a digital copy can be found here.
Ze rules:

Review as often or as little as you like. Once you've posted 5 reviews, you will be awarded 1 pick. You can post 5 reviews, right? That's a totally achievable goal and with day and date digital releases becoming the standard, it shouldn't matter if your shop ordered enough copies of this weeks comic or not.

When multiple Review Groupers have posted 5 (or more) qualifying reviews, they will be awarded their pick in the order that they qualified. What constitutes a qualifying review? Any review posted (with a score on a scale from 0-10, that's right 0!) within 1 calendar month of the thread going live. Reviews are to be at least 5 sentences long. It shows that a) you have at least read this week's pick and b) you have some unique insight into the comic.

Reviews posted while waiting in line for your pick will be applied to your next pick.

I'll be keeping track of everyone's progress with the newly christened Spreadsheet of Fantastic (RIP, Spreadsheet of Doom) and reporting the results in the Current Members list in the weekly OP. When it's your turn to make a pick, I will PM you. If you do not respond to me by Midnight EST the following Sunday, you will lose your pick and I will start a poll to determine that week's selection.

Any week in which we do not have a Review Grouper with 5 qualifying picks, we will determine the week's comic via poll.

If it's your week to pick, remember to keep it under $3.99.

Naturally, this new system is new and it may be necessary to make changes as we go.

Stephen Day has next week's pick. Let's hope that it's a good one.

Suggestions welcome.

Been low on the dough lately, so I'm not sure when I'll be able to review this.

[GLX]

Got my copy, today. Review to come by week's end.

[GLX]

I've got to say that this was entertaining issue; however, the finale to "Final Extinction" is a bit weak. Rick Remender and company brought it, but it's one of the weaker parts of this storyline. The major death in this issue didn't pack much punch because of the deceased character's history. Whether or not that death will stick isn't certain, in my eyes. There were some good character moments throughout, but it barely hit the standard that this series is known for. Still, it's better than most series on the market. Hopefully, Uncanny X-Force can end on a strong note.

7.9* out of 10*
