   Is it just me, or is that cover majestically stupid-looking?

   "majestically stupid-looking" is a great description; I’m going to have to steal that and use it to describe other things.

   I’ve actually enjoyed this series a lot more than I thought I would. With that said, this issue is make-or-break for me. This is the long-awaited Cyclops/Xavier confrontation. If it sucks (which is doubtful, actually), I’m off. But if it feels like a good place to stop, then I’m off as well. I just really don’t care about current X-Men continuity anymore.They got my attention again with Messiah Complex, and things haven’t been awful or anything, but I just see no reason to hang around.

   I agree. This is going to be hard to top for my pick of the week. I loved this issue.

   Seriously, it’s as though they’re the same muscle-faced man.

   Mask-on, mask-off! Mask-on, mask-off!

   I liked this  — let me say up front, I LIKED this.  But.   I get the feeling Carey, Fraction, and Yost are not being allowed to talk to each other, or aren’t talking to each other, or *something*.  I love Uncanny, I like Legacy, I like X-Force.  But.

   If Emma is so much in Scott’s mind that she is ALWAYS watching for signs of manipulation and control, as Carey states, then how is Scott hiding the X-Force team?  How do the X-Men reconcile Warren’s joining the team via X-Force, and the stuff he did there?  What’s the excuse for him being around, how are they hiding that?  How is WARREN hiding from Emma what he and the X-Force team did?  And let’s not even drag in the latest issue of Cable.

   The telepathy is reading the script, dangit.  It’s not consistent.  And, I *know* that’s too much to ask for.  I’m not even truly miffed about it.  But I *will* be miffed if they start using each other’s plot points without establishing some consistency.

    Well said resolute, I hadn’t thought about it too much, but you are absolutely right. There is something odd about the disconnect between the books.

    At this point I’d kind of like to see a Brand New Day style continuity dump for the Xmen.

    Oh man that would be so great…

    I have a question, did Rogue always said "Ah" instead of "I" ?
