Enjoyed Greg Land's work here as much as I have at any time previously, despite being aware for the first time of all the allegations of his tracing and lifting from pornography. I found all that didn't change my view of his art at all, and honestly, seeing his work on this actually made me believe the accusations even less than I did already, almost to the point that I now think they're pretty ridiculous really. Looking at his work here, no way he traces his stuff, not buying it at all, sorry.
Didn't think I'd ever say this, but didn't hate Fraction's writing in this. Suffice it say it didn't suck, and the storyline is half-way intriguing, with Emma's mission with Fantomex and Kitty (why's she wearing that fish bowl though, missed something there), the HX-N1 pandemic (analogous to our H1-N1 virus obviously), the Collective Man in Chinatown (hopefully a formidable new foe for Wolvie, who I surmise is otherwise known as the 'Black Dragon'), and the scheming of the Sublime Corp. It's like a multi-faceted plot-line going on here, and as hard as it is for me to say, it's kinda impressive.
Just didn't like Angel's line there during that conference though, not much composure there for as sophisticated a character Warren is to just say, "Go to hell..." in response to that reporter's insensitive question.
Art: 5 - Excellent
Ahem…

Saw it all this already, weak evidence at best, peeps gotta getta life and stop trying to destroy this guys reputation, if it hasn’t been already, but clearly not with Marvel, who apparently has no artistic integrity as far as who draws their comics I guess.
Yeah. I am pretty tired of people moaning about Greg Land’s art. Everytime I hear or see his name, all I can think about is the mass of negative criticism he gets.
I guess Kitty is wearing that spacesuit just in case her body unphases she will be protected from harm. Since she has been in space for so long, her body is unable to fight off the common sicknesses in the atmosphere.
@XManRyan – Oh, so Kitty is in a perpetual state of phasing after phasing that bullet through Earth, and after being in space so long, her immune system has sorta reset and is unable to defend her from common illnesses? Wow, awesome, thanks, how was she saved by the way? Missed that part too.
In order to gain the X-Men’s trust, Magneto brought the bullet to earth, dismantled it, and levitated her out of it. She was unable to speak and touch Colossus. Kavita Rao suggested that since Kitty was phased with the bullet for so long, she has forgotten how to unphase.
How did Magneto reach it?
Man, that Astonishing storyline was just so great, an epic classic in my mind, was sad to see Kitty lost in space, but it was a powerful moment in the story and lent it a lot of weight, how did they get to it from so far out in space?
Magneto brought down the bullet through a meditative state. Before Magneto arrived on Utopia, he was up in space trying to regain his powers with the help from the High Evolutionary. While he was up there, I think he studied all the metals that made up the bullet…Yeah this was all in the issue where Kitty returns. I had to pull this one from the box to remember it all.
