World Tour Part 8 (of 8) In the aftermath of the Proteus battle, Professor X must decide whether to disband the X-Men or not. Also, has Professor Xavier been manipulating their minds since their enrollment at his school?
A pretty slow issue for this series, as aside from a brief bit of action in the opening pages, this issue is largely a talking heads affair, with the main focus centered upon Xavier trying to figure out whether the X-Men should be disbanded or not. While X-fans are likely to get a nice surprise when they see who offers up the advice that allows Xavier to answer this question, I don't really expect too many readers were tricked into believing that Xavier was really going to follow through on his decision to discontinue the X-Men. The conversation was nicely handled though, as Xavier's doubts are well presented, though one does get the sense that Xavier wasn't fully committed to this course of action as Magneto doesn't really offer too much to counter Xavier's concerns. Still, this issue is a pretty enjoyable read for the reader looking for a little more character development, and it also raises some interesting questions about the team, and why the team may still fall apart even though Read Full Review

The issue is very interesting and the art is good, but there are so many things in this Charles that I hate... It's awful to see him lying in bed when his students are actually risking their lifes at the moment. And when he wanted to abandon them leaving only a letter... In addition to that, this stupid egotist brainwashed Magneto and made him say the right words lol. And then he actually cried... Not when his son died or when his ex-wife cried. Yeah, your ex-friend, who made you a cripple back then, hugs you and tells you what you wanted to hear (but only because he had no choice) - that's the time to cry. And after that he decided not to close his school. So much for a resignation... Brilliant, yeah. If not for the art and interesting wrimore
