Ultimate X-Men #11 Brings a New Leader to the Forefront

Ultimate X-Men #11

The fate of mutants lies in shambles after humanity raided the Children of the Atom. Some mutants like Armor, Nico, Mori, and Natsu want to hide their powers and let the storm pass over, while others like Mei and Kanon hope to confront the problem head-on. All the while, Viper of the Maker’s councils loses her grip on mutant-kind, and a new leader will step forward to lead the remaining Children of Atom in Ultimate X-Men #11 by Peach Momoko.

Momoko’s focus on the characters’ relationships still stands as one of the best parts of the series. With the titular X-Men at a crossroads regarding how to deal with the Children of the Atom and humanity’s fear of mutants, she draws not only tension but also character growth for characters like Mei, who decides to leave the shadows and become the leader. It raises the debate of whether inaction or action is the better option. Especially with how little the kids can trust adults, they must figure out their best choice. 

I also appreciate Momoko’s slower pace for the series, allowing things to breathe and explore more in-depth. This decision draws us even closer to this part of the Ultimate Universe, where we can solely focus on what is impacting it and it alone. Much like a descending spiral, we fall deeper into the extensive world that Momoko built. Every little bit has been carefully thought out, and I love how the notions of clear binaries are blurred even more. Initially presenting the Children of the Atom as villains, she showcases the true evil in charge and the victims who have been afflicted and brainwashed by the cult. Lastly, the gradual storytelling reflects how the characters are still adjusting to the new world of mutants and finding their place.

Momoko’s art and colors, with VC’s Travis Lanham’s lettering, make each issue an actual visual event to look forward to each month. I am constantly amazed by Momoko’s astounding visual work, where every panel truly comes alive and stands out from the Ultimate Line and most Big Two comics in general. I am also amazed at the consistent quality of her delivery each month. Her writing and art are a true match in heaven that continues to craft a defying take on such a beloved franchise.

Momoko delivers another outstanding issue with Ultimate X-Men #11. As the pieces slide into position, the battle for the future of the young mutants hangs on the horizon. The careful pacing and strong character beats make it one of the best published comics.
