    This is an excellent first issue with a unique take on X-Men mythology. Larry Trask is an important, but rarely used character dating back to the Neal Adams days of the original X-Men and it will be interesting to see where his vision goes. This new generation of Sentinels is novel in that they are human beings with machine parts, whereas previous generations of Sentinels were 100% machine. These Sentinels strike me more as soldiers than cops and I don't really know them well enough yet as characters to know whether they are likeable or not. The idea that they go after bad mutants is solid, and the classic superhero motivation. If the Sentinels are primarily motivated by the desire to do good and are altruistic, I imagine that I will like them as characters as I get to know them. Of course we know that good and bad are subjective terms and that most everyone falls into a grey area, but I think that most would agree that Omega Red and Sebastian Shaw are truly basically villains and acceptable targets for the Sentinels. After capturing Omega Red, they take him to Greymalkin where the Blob and others are also imprisoned. I don't know who captured the Blob, but I don't imagine that it was the Sentinels. I also would consider the Blob more a hero than a villain these days, especially after his stint as bartender of the Green Lagoon. This makes Greymalkin more interesting and brings up the question of who really needs to be incarcerated. Warden Ellis of Greymalkin ties this book into other X-titles. She and Larry Trask clearly have different philosophies and it will be interesting to see how that plays out in the future. I really appreciate the originality and unique take of this series and am looking forward to the next issue!

    I never likened Sentinels to cops because the robot versions were more killsquads than what cops would be thought of, and these human sentinels are treated more like Black Ops soldiers than cops.
    Either way, nothing is a blanket statement since people loved them The Shield, Law & Order, etc.

    Another example is the two lead characters in Pineapple Express. They're both protagonists, but the only reason you laugh and root for them is because it's a comedy and they're less abhorrent compared to the villains. Otherwise you'd be disgusted at them selling drugs to kids.

    "X-men are cops" .. this reminds me of something I've not thought of in some time. I seem to remember that originally X-Men had two purposes: to train how to control their powers but also fight against evil mutants that would use their powers to prey on humans... If my memory is correct, then yeah cops.
    And this , basically, is my counterargument against those hating on Shadowkat during Fall of Krakoa who said she can't be a hero now since she's committed murder. (they totally ignore Wolverine's rap sheet) My argument is that Kate was not a murderer, she was a soldier, they were at war and she targeted only soldiers of Orchis.

  • @madawade
    @madawade Місяць тому

    I agree that most (nearly all) superheroes/teams are cops, but I don’t see how that applies to the X-Men nearly as neatly as it does a group like the Avengers, for example. Especially since the X-Men exist because mutants are an oppressed group that’s formally opposed by the federal gov. In-universe, groups like the X-Men are more likely to be understood as terrorists than anything else imo.

    The Shield is in my Top 5 Dead or Alive Best Shows of All Time. The Forrest Whitaker season (3..?) was my favorite. Not sure I like the idea of this book, but one thing I know for sure; the art is not good. It's something I expect to see in a bad girls (Lady Death, etc.) or Evil Ernie comic from the 90s. Hard pass.

      For me, as long as the writing is Good (with a capital G) I can tolerate any comic (case in point Jim Zub’s first Thunderbolts run {with a Gater artist that will not be named} the art was absolute trash, if it wasn’t for Jim Zub’s writing, I would have dropped the series after issue 2)
