X-Men #204 was Carey's best issue so far during his run on this title. Yeah, this issue was a time waster until the beginning of the Messiah Complex story. But, at least Carey took this extra time he had on his hands and pulled off some quality character work and his strongest dialogue I have read up to this point.
