This was pretty awesome. 

Opena's art was better than in the first issue, like he's warming up to the task, and the various concepts in this are mind-blowing.  "Flash Darwinism" and "Punctuality is the politeness of kings," this is Remender at his best; and then the 'Final Horsemen' and the 'Cavern-X' with the various permutations of the X-Men throughout time exhibited, those images were reminiscent of some of my fave X-books from back in the day.

What an incredible Danger Room scene, haven't seen something like that for awhile, and still delving into the conflict Warren is feeling with his Archangel alter-ego; and you can almost feel the struggle the little boy Apocalypse is feeling as he is being indoctrinated, his innocence corrupted piece-meal.  The kid reminds me somewhat of like a little Adolf Hitler, creepy.
