HOUSE OF M [comic] Review
I did this backwards, read Civil War before M, but oh well. It was explained to me as being one of (if not the) biggest event for Marvel Comics. I don&amp;#8217;t know if I agree with that, but from the perspective of the mutant-society, I would say the&nbsp;repercussions&nbsp;have greater impact than anything else.&nbsp;For anyone that is into where Marvel has brought their heroes these days it&amp;#8217;s a must-read. Avengers has their &amp;#8220;age of heroes&amp;#8221; X-Men their &amp;#8220;schism&amp;#8221; even Fantastic Four and Spider Man have now teamed up (with the death of Torch) and all of it stems from House of M. To sum up the 8 part series; Scarlet Witch (Magneto&amp;#8217;s daughter) turns on the Avengers, loses control of her powers, and creates an alternate reality. Only a few heroes know the truth, and wage battle against the family of Magnus in an attempt to save Prof X and return the world to normal. In the end, Witch unleashes her powers in a last ditch effort that results in roughly 95% of the mutant population losting their powers.&nbsp;This of course makes things unsettling with humans, which sparks the Civil War series&amp;#8230;&nbsp;
It&amp;#8217;s a fun/short read for anyone that enjoys seeing massive hero-teamups. Definitely weird to see characters like Wolverine in charge of SHIELD, and refreshing to see someone like Peter Parker showing a more intense, less quirky, side.&nbsp;
Now I&amp;#8217;m gonna dive into &amp;#8220;Age of Apocalypse&amp;#8221; and wait/hope that they port the &amp;#8220;Onslaught&amp;#8221; series into the iPad store.&nbsp;
