#MarvelUK #DarkAngel #5 (1992) - 3/10
The story is okay, but the telling of it is clumsy.
1️⃣ Shevaun and the #XMen fight evil in a small, sealed microverse.
2️⃣ Mostly it's just fighting. Complex explanations are given in the narration boxes. There's a disconnect between the epic concepts in those boxes and the fact that we're just watching a very bland X-Men battle.
3️⃣ This is the first issue to feature #TheXMen on every page.

4️⃣ And Shevaun doesn't really have a character, as such. She's insanely powerful and she fights. That's the extent of it.

“This is madness!”
1️⃣ Un-Earth. Bugs. Hell.
2️⃣ Inept writing basically destroys the cool concepts in this comic. It's crazy. And has potential. But this script is clunky. The X-Men are shoehorned in. Again. The best I can say is that it's so bad that it's massively entertaining. And I really like the art.

3️⃣ The 9-pages with the X-Men feel shoehorned in. She doesn't appear to be a mutant, why the hell does Xavier care about her?
