Spinning directly out of X-MEN: SCHISM, the X-Men are split in two. In the oversized debut issue of the new ongoing flagship X-series, Wolverine takes one half of the X-Men back to Westchester to start over again with a new school, a new student body and a lot of surprises up his sleeve. But when the new Hellfire Club decides they don't like what the ol' Canucklehead has started, and decide to burn the place to the ground, will the school even outlast its first day?

I didn't read X-Men: Schism, so maybe that is why I really didn't care for this volume. I liked the idea of Wolverine opening up his own school and seeing him go through the day to day of being a professor. However this volume didn't have that. Wolverine is in the process of getting his school approved by the DOE, some bratty group of misfits attack it, some funny stuff happens. I won't be reading volume 2 because I just don't care to know what happens next.
I generally loved this series but this volume was barely coherent. It relied on some tired and troubling tropes (alien pregnancy infestation. How does that happen enough to be a trope?!). It was unnecessarily difficult to follow.
I'm probably inflating this at least one star because of its PROMISE to be exactly what I want to see in comics. This volume is a lot of necessary exposition, etc. But who can say no to Wolverine and Kitty Pryde co-running a school? They're going to have so many adventures. Favorites!! Can't wait to read more.
