X-Men Forever #9 - Marvel

We have a few things going on this issue, and as I'm reading it . . I'm wondering how their connected. Obviously Zigfied Trask is trying to finish her father's creation here in the jungles of South America. But the Sentinels are different. Last issue ended with a squad of them, 10, attacking a small village. Apparently their programming has adapted and they consider all humans, human and mutant, to be flawed. At one point it says that they consider themselves to be superior, but an another it says that they think that all humans are mutants to some degree. Anyways, the point is, they're a little less picky on their targets now. The X-Men still rank at the top of their 'to-do' list, but . . after that, pretty much anything goes. So the X-Men come in to save the villagers, and after Jean takes them all down with a rather drastic TK burst, they also find out that they're different because this batch looks like their set up to be a construction unit. All of their operating systems are located in their appendages, and the torsos are pretty much empty. They're also each outfitted with a foundry. This way they can repurpose the scraps and pieces and stuff from their surroundings. You know, wood, metal, cars, ore . . whatever. Anyways, while this is going on, Zigfried and Nick are having a conversation back at the hidden facility. Through this conversation we get a history of the Trask family, and the Sentinels. And while all of this has been going on, we keep seeing this Consortium watching and keeping track of what's going on. We still don't know who they are or what their goals are, but at the end of this issue we find out that Zigfried's mother, whom through this story we thought was dead, is actually one of the Consortium's leaders. Zigfried escapes from Nick and SHIELD, and while in the jungle stumbles across some more of her creations. We don't get a look at them directly, but whatever they are . . she feels confident enough to plan to engage the X-Men once again. So far I think Chris has made some subtle changes in this world's history, but . . I think he could take some bigger chances. Yes this reads differently from the established history, but . . it still reads and feels like an X-Men book. Actually, one of many. So I'm just saying, if Chris wants this world to have a unique feel, I think he's going to have to make some less subtle changes . . not be afraid to shake things up. I know he's really only just begun, but . . this is the time when people get bought into the series. Steve Scott does the art for this story-arc. It appears that Paul Smith will be coming on board for the next, with Tom Grummett coming back after that. Don't get me wrong. So far I like what I'm reading. I would just like to see some chances being taken. Let's make some history!
