Son of M #6 - Marvel

This has been a pretty interesting series. This is the last book though. But, it started out during the "House of M" drama. Quicksilver had lost his powers during that whole thing, and he knew if he could get to the moon and get the terrigan mists he could fix that. It ended up being more of an Inhuman story than an X-men story, at least I think it did. And the writing and the art were all very well crafted. David Hine did a good job of making us feel all the nuances of a person loosing their power and what they might go through, or be willing to do, to get them back. You really feel for this character. However, at the same time you know what he is doing is wrong and he's putting the Inhuman's in jeapordy. He even goes to the extent of using his daughter to help him get away with the goods. In her eyes he can do no wrong, and he uses that to get her to do something she probably wouldn't do on her own. Kind of ironic that that's how his father, Magneto, had treated him. Now thrown into the mix are some of the mutants that were left on Genosha. You also learn how, with the Inhumans, the use of the mists were a religious act. Therefore, moderated and used controllingly. When the mist are used without control, and the recipient isn't Inhuman, the side effects are worse than not having your powers. In the end, Quicksilver escapes capture, and somehow the mists have given him the ability to vibrate, or whatever, into the future. You don't really learn what he saw, but in his words "The world seems so peaceful. It's hard to believe that so much chaos is on it's way." And somehow, now, he can use his powers to kickstart others. And it looks like he's kickstarting bad guys. Obviously, this is not the end. The artist, Roy Allen Martinez, gives this book a genuine feel all it's own. His artwork flows from frame to frame very well. You'll probably be able to get this in a trade pretty soon. And you probably should, because this could be the start of something big.
