Guardians of the Galaxy & X-Men: The Black Vortex by Brian Michael Bendis, Javier Garrón, Mike Mayhew, Mahmud Asrar, Sam Humphries, Paco Medina, David Baldeón, Valerio Schiti, John Layman, Andrea Sorrention, Ed McGuinness, Kelly Sue DeConnick, David López, Gerry Duggan

3.0

I read most of these comics anyway, so I already like the art and side stories, but the whole premise felt like a thinly veiled after-school-special about drugs. "Wow you guys, this thing makes me feel great, I'm the person I want to be, you should totally try it!" "No way, you can't see how it's changed you for the worse, we should all have a choice, stop peer-pressuring us!"

Black Vortex on its own gets a 2, but the characters and art get a 4, so, three stars.
