X-Men Age of Apocalypse Alpha Review: Revisiting the Dystopian X-Men with Decent Art

In this detailed review, I explore X-Men: Age of Apocalypse Alpha, a comic revisiting the dystopian world where Apocalypse reigns and the X-Men, led by Magneto, fight for survival. Written by Jeph Loeb with art by Simone Di Meo, this book offers a visually decent experience with sharp angles, vibrant colors, and a nostalgic nod to the 90s Age of Apocalypse run. While the story feels familiar, it continues the iconic crossover, blending action and mutant dynamics. I discuss Di Meo’s art, the writing’s pacing, and the potential for a Marvel X-Men relaunch with classic characters like Cyclops, Wolverine, Jean Grey, and more. Check out my thoughts on the foil cover, fan reactions, and whether Marvel can recapture its audience with this mutant milestone.
