Thank God this is over, its been shit so far and its turned one of Marvels best books (ANX) into crap, hopefully Bendis is able to distance himself from this and get the book back on track.

tired of time jumps and sub-part art work. Get your shit together Marvel!

Your video games and tv show already suck. Don't let the comics fall too

My only gripe with all these crossovers is when do these things even take place. You have Battle of the Atom going on, but is it happening at the same time as Infinity, or the Ragnarok events from Uncanny Avengers? I mean there's like 4 Earth ending events going on at the same time yet no book seems to acknowledge it.

@Marvel72

I agree, this is the best thing X-men have been a part of for years. Most of these haters probably haven't even read the books

This series has been an 7/8 out of 10, but Infinity has been 10/10 the whole series.

@ wcwpoet

yeah like wolverine,beast,rachel,iceman & storm have all been a part of infinity but also feature in battle of the atom.

obviously they take part at different times but it would be cool to know when.

@wcwpoet

This one isnt earth ending, and it's more or less an excuse to why the X-Men can't help out with Infinity. It's intentionally at the same time

I've enjoyed this crossover but lost on why it's called Battle of the Atom. Maybe we'll find out but generally it's been Marvel's style to make that info clear upfront.

i like this crossover but they should've waited until january to release this x-men event. Meanwhile include all the x titles as part of infinity.. i would love to see wolverine and the x-men, uncanny x-men, cable and the x-force, and uncanny x-force as infinity crossover. I would've been cool to see Thanos fight the kids at the Jean Grey School. i would love to see x-characters fight avenger villains vice versa

This has been a GREAT story arc. Sad to see it end... But happy to see the Original Five's new suits (if they're all similar to young beast's new suit)

this arc is higher than a 7/8 out of 10. it's definitely been a 10/10 and infinity has been a 10/10 as well. definitely their best crossover events in the last few years.

Ribic is one of the best artists at Marvel right now. His stuff is so great. I wonder why he's not credited on the cover though.

Esad Ribic, Steve McNiven, Jerome Opena, Leinil Yu--so glad they're all working on Marvel books right now.

I've liked this story. But this is still a shade compared to some of the X Events we've had in the past. X-Cutioner's song and Age of Apocalypse come to mind. Those were stories that juggled multiple X Teams, villains, plots and sub plots and did so beautifully (and XCutioner's Song had the mother of all Continuity twisters). Like I said, it's been pretty good, but as far as a "50th Anniversary X Men Event" it;s kind of lacking.
