This graphic novel was really poorly written. I could not for the life of me focus on the story and try to wrap my head around what was going on. I could only tell the basics from location and such, but the dialogue and interactions between characters didn't add much to the storytelling process. It was really a bummer to read this because the art was fantastic and of course it's supposed to be more of a darker Marvel tale being that it deals with Cable and a couple of the other darker characters. I really liked what was trying to be done, but somewhere along the lines the story was just lost to poor writing. I have read Dennis Hopeless before and it wasn't terrible so I know better is possible. This book needs a clear story to go through, and the first few issues do a really poor job of introducing the characters and the plot. The last issue was good and I think may be the turning point for this set of heroes and begin a new mission that some of us who are unfamiliar with most of these characters can grab on to. I have hopes that this series could turn around, but so far I wasn't impressed with anything but the art.
