Oh, the artwork is exceptionally good, and the dialogue-heavy scenes in the beginning (with the two groups thoughtfully debating on a course of action on a serious matter - that being the life or death of Wanda 'Scarlet Witch' Maximoff - and juggling a fair number of talking heads) are well-written. The build-up and suspense were present issue after issue, leaving readers definitely invested on what will happen next which is something I know is never always a sure route when it comes to crossover events in comics. Wanda Maximoff creates an alternate reality after Vision's death, although she only affects one town, Westview, instead of the whole world. You can change your choices at any time by visiting Cookie preferences, as described in the Cookie notice.

House of M also captures a lot of the mystery and intrigue of an Elseworld comic, where everything is recognizable and familiar, yet upside down and twisted (another big turn-on for this nerd). He finds the world has changed into one where Homo superior is the dominant species instead of Homo sapiens. I wouldn't recommend this as a stand-alone because you do need to know what has happened in some of the previous stories.

Super fun, solid dialog, lots of great moments from characters I usually don't care for (Wolverine/Magneto) and the "what if" world is pretty awesome. For over eight years Bendis’s books have consistently sat in the top five best sellers on the nationwide comic and graphic novel sales charts. I imagine each mutant would most desire to have the same status as, say, Spiderman or Wolverine – that is to say, be in the spotlight, the centre of attention.

So either Bendis creates a permanent, fundamental change, or he creates a gigantic problem that somebody else has to solve.When Pietro requested that the new world will be able to give everyone's desire, this also includes the accomplishment of their own father's goals, and he is by now the sole ruler of the entire world under the House of M. But to be fair, I usually don't like these big Marvel events that much anyway, so maybe I should have expected this.
