Summary

Son of M is a six-issue limited series following Marvel's 2005 event House of M, written by David Hine and drawn by Roy Allan Martinez. Its protagonist is Quicksilver, Pietro Maximoff, who lost his powers after M-Day. When the Scarlet Witch said 'No more mutants', she stripped the powers from the vast majority of mutants, Pietro among them, and he bears an unavoidable share of responsibility for the disaster: he had persuaded his sister to rewrite reality and create a mutant world ruled by Magneto. When the world was restored, he fell from 'the fastest man alive' to an ordinary person, his friends scattered, his sister gone, his wife Crystal long since separated from him, leaving only a life of poverty and exile and the contempt of his fellow mutants. In despair he pins his last hope on the Inhumans, who possess the Terrigen Mists and Terrigen Crystals that can bestow power. To regain his powers he crosses one taboo of Black Bolt and the Inhumans after another, even drawing his daughter Luna into his scheme, and sinks into deeper betrayal than ever before. This is Volume 2 of the series, continuing this grey story of loss, obsession and self-redemption.

Editor's review

如果说《M氏家族》是一部关于“愿望成真有多可怕”的家族悲剧,那么《M氏之子》就是它最尖锐的余震。主角不再是拯救世界的英雄,而是一个把世界搞砸之后、连自己都救不了的人。大卫·海因擅长把角色逼到情绪的临界点:皮特罗偷取泰瑞根水晶的每一步,都既是求生,也是自毁;他对女儿露娜的利用,比任何打斗都更让人难受。罗伊·艾伦·马丁内斯的画风细节密集、线条繁复,人物在崩溃边缘的神情被刻画得格外清楚。对熟悉《M氏家族》《异人族》《秘密战争》线索的读者来说,这部作品补上了“M日之后变种人如何活下去”的关键一环,也解释了快银此后长期背负的骂名。它不是轻松爽快的超英漫画,而是一本让人读完沉默的心理剧。

Who it's for

A good fit for

  • 读过《M氏家族》,想了解“M日”后续影响的读者
  • 喜欢快银、绯红女巫、万磁王家族线的漫威粉丝
  • 对异人族、泰瑞根迷雾设定感兴趣的读者
  • 偏爱心理描写与灰色人物的成年漫画读者

Not a good fit for

  • 第一次接触漫威漫画、缺乏背景知识的新读者
  • 期待快节奏打斗和爽感剧情的读者
  • 年龄偏小、需要家长陪同的少儿读者

Reading tips

  1. 建议先读《M氏家族》,弄清“再无变种人”的前因,再进入本系列。
  2. 留意皮特罗的每句自辩:他的谎话往往比真话更能说明他怕什么。
  3. 可与后续《寂静战争》连着读,异人族索回水晶的冲突正是从这里埋下。
  4. 阅读时对照异人族的族规与泰瑞根仪式,能更理解黑蝠王拒绝他的理由。

FAQ

没读过《M氏家族》能直接看这本吗?
能读,但会损失很多关键信息。本系列紧接“M日”之后,快银失去能力、背负骂名的前因都在《M氏家族》里,建议先补那一部。
这个系列一共有几册?主角是谁?
原版为 6 期限定连载,主角是失去超能力的快银皮特罗·马克西莫夫,水晶、露娜与异人族王室也占据重要篇幅。
《M氏之子》有官方简体中文版吗?
据目前可查资料,尚未见到正式引进的简体中文实体版,中文读者多通过民间汉化或英文原版阅读,书中的出版信息请以实物为准。
这本适合多大的读者?
原版标注为 T+(13 岁以上)。故事涉及心理创伤、家庭破裂与道德困境,更适合能理解灰色人物的青少年及成年读者。
