I was thinking that this series would keep getting better. But for the most part, I felt this collection was a step back. Ord is in custody but honestly what kind of cell is going to hold a being like that for long. Emma gets all kinds of strange and all kinds of bad things start to happen to the X-Men. The story itself at this point is not going in a direction that I enjoy. I really don’t like how muddled it has become.
Overall, this section of the story has really started to lose my interest. I hope the next section of the story will get better and get back to what makes us love the X-Men.
