For a book in which there's a whole bunch of characters I know absolutely nothing about [the kids in the
NEW
"New X-Men" and most of their supporting cast], including their power set and their inter-personal relationship status quo, the story had enough "ingredients" to, um... nourish my comic book appetite (hey, gimme a break: I'm trying to spice it up - d'oh! I did it again).
Of course, by the 3-star rating, you can tell this wasn't a sit-down meal at a classy restaurant, but rather some drive...more

House of M: New X-Men - Academy X (2006)
This book collects New X-Men 16 -19 and was written by husband and wife team Nunzio DeFilippis and Christina Weir. The art was by penciller Aaron Lopresti and inker Brad Vancata. All of the creative team are new to me.

Part of a much bigger crossover, and pretty much unreadable with reading both that story and the stories that came before.
