The Rundown: The story continues for the kids while their teachers fight for their lives against living monsters.
The kids continue to listen to the story of the Rawhide Kid and things get scarier for them when zombies appear in the book. At the same time, the X-Men face off against Bloodstone and her monster team before she teleports them away from the house and into an abandoned amusement park.
Wolverine takes on the wolf man and their battle will reveal something unexpected. Nightcrawler faces off against Frankenstein’s monster while Jubilee confronts Morbius. Rogue takes on the Mummy and Elsa and discovers during their battle that the entity controlling them caused this distraction to get them away while she moves in on the house and its residents.
The Story: Simone crafts a thrilling, entertaining and engaging story in this issue. I love the pacing and dialogue a lot. I love that it plays on the fears of the characters, especially Rogue and Nightcrawler. I continue to love the different stories being told and how every moment builds. I really loved the reveal of the big bad in the issue and how she is manipulating events. The story ends on a fantastic cliffhanger and I cannot wait to see what happens next.
The Art: Marquez delivers incredible art throughout the issue. I love the visuals, character designs and action a lot.
