All things considered, the penultimate issue of the Age of X-Man could have been far worse. Themes of intention and exploitation by well-meaning messiahs might hit the page in awkward angles, but at least theyre being addressed.  Theres a lot of exciting potential in the overall premise being explored in the event. Its too bad that it hasnt been given very much room to develop. Its possible that next weeks Age of X-Man: Omega #1 will breathtakingly wrap-up everything seen in this and all of the other series in the event, but given the awkward composition of the story, it seems doubtful.

Like the miniseries as a whole, this finale has some smart ideas sticking out of a storytelling matrix that consistently comes across as a little sub-par.

"No more damn liés !"

This was probably the best issue simply because I'm a sucker for villains dressing down their opponents, and Apocalypse does a good job with that here. But it all kind of falls apart in the end when the X-Tracts forgive him. I'm glad this series is over. It was easily the worst of the Age of X-Man comics.

I’m so glad this is over.
