[QUOTE=loke13;5348569]Depends on what you consider the plot though.
X-men is chock full of it. It's just in the form of World building.[/QUOTE]
World building with 157 issues? really? Hickman has the pace of a snail and the focus of a 3 yeaold kid on telling his x-men story
That's one of Hickman's flaws as a writer; he focuses so much on his structured storytelling [B]overall[/B] that he can neglect the connective tissue(focused on the destination, not the journey along the way). I enjoyed this issue anyways, but I can understand the criticism.
People complaining about the plot. Like there's a goal but you don't have to travel in a straight line to get there.

It gave me good XXM vibe.
Was the villain the same race as the Imperial Guardsman Quasar?

people know this very well and can still dislike it
[QUOTE=butterflykyss;5348520]Storm creating an EM field to to block an attack and dropping an alien brute with one strike all in an alien environment. Spectacular!! Great job Mr. Hickman!!!

still gets one shot by most high tiers.
Issue was terrible. Roberto and Deathbird suck. Sam and Smasher suck. Ugh. Writing was all over the place.

If the issue is bad, it's bad but saying it doesn't move the ongoing plot forward is just theory crafting.

perhaps but this feat makes such statements that much harder to claim.

And I wish that we'd get a moment with Jean and Rachel acknowledging the events and Elaine's last words to Rachel (in relation to the Shi'ar). But it's history now.

Yes. Made of black hole stuff.

But it moved the plot very little, it was adventure so Xandra would owe Storm a favour.
Definitely the most "traditional" X-Men story Hickman has written so far, which made Booth's nostalgic art-style feel appropriate for it. I liked that he built off of the economic collapse established in Empyre and gave more focus to Xandra. He managed to include charming Roberto and Sam content that didn't feel too intrusive or distracting. Ororo, Jean, and Smasher had impressive feats, Scott not so much unfortunately. I thought it was very cool, and the teaser for future Storm content was the cherry on top!
