This issue was definitely better than the last one. Non stop action makes an issue fun to read and this one was all action. There was still a tiny injection of humor but it felt sort of weak.

They are being used to destroy their political rival, the country of Symkaria. Colossus, Storm, Jubilee, Psylocke and War Machine investigate the matter and try to put an end to the chaos until things go from bad to worse. The story moved along at a nice pace and there was nothing special or bad about the artwork. Gischler's run with the series has been interesting because he is tasked with using different X-Men characters every three or four issues. It must to be difficult to find your groove as a writer when things change quickly but Gischler has done a nice job of adapting with the changes. Read Full Review
