This was the second time this title brought a little man-tear to my eyes.  The first was when Kitty saw Colossus.  Unfortunately this time it was just because of how sad I was to have wasted my time and money on this whole arc.
Though I generally enjoy Ellis, his work in this title has been consistently hollow.  The X-Men have been  generally mere shells of what I’ve grown to expect of them and I’m not sure if I even understand or care about what happen in this arc.  And for whatever reason, I cannot enjoy Bianchi’s interior art. The faces always seem somewhat plastic and seem to be either screaming or constipated — though I will admit that he has some dynamic layouts which make me look at pages a second or third time.
Not sure if I can continue on another arc like this one.
