X-Men Trial of Magneto #5: It's Finally Over.
But Did It Deliver?
Emma Frost is right.
Please don’t keep us in suspense.
Just tell us what happened, who did it, and let’s move on as fast as possible.
If the purpose of this miniseries was to craft a good mystery, it failed miserably.
A good mystery can have twists and turns, but everything shouldn’t be a red herring that leads to a twist, and it ends up being cheap, hollow and predictable, and far too obvious from the start.
Even if this comic tries to keep us guessing to the last second.
It was meant to be about Magento and his journey for Wanda.
It failed miserably.
If it was about Wanda and her journey and fixing her mistakes, then kudos, it succeeded.
But barely and wasted so much time.
Not to mention the ultimate cost of all of this.
Questions are answered.
But I have a few others that have popped up that the comic won’t answer, and it feels unfair.
If this was meant to be about Wanda this entire time, why not call it the Trial of the Scarlet Witch?
