Rated T+
Malice's 15 minutes of fame pass with incredible speed. Magneto confronts the Mothervine Cabal. Plans are clearly in motion to assemble a new secondary team to carry this title while the O5 are absent - a good structural move that could keep this title alive even without the kids. Near flawless art adds a great deal to this issue's reading experience; the dialogue is hammy and the plotlines are excessively jumbled. The larger story arc might end up in a good place, but #24 won't stick out as a high point in hindsight.
