Anyone care to post the nod to Storm?
Anyone care to post the nod to Storm?
The D'bari plot was weak. But the baby was cute and this was better than regular Gold issues. The fact that Psylocke wasn't even mentioned is a big oversight on editorial's part.
(Reads comic.......jumps out window)
WTH was this?
ALL HAIL THE HADARI YAO, THE OMEGA'S OMEGA, BEYOND OMEGA, THE VOICE OF SOL!!!! NOW AGAIN THE ONE TRUE AND ONLY GODDESS OF THE X-MEN AS CLAREMONT INTENDED!!!!!
Maggie = Valeria Richards
Rachel = Jean [apparently]
The best thing about this annual was the backup story with the girl and her aunt calling out and standing up against anti-mutant bigotry.
And the backup creators are listed at the end of the letters page and at the end of their story... but they should have been listed on the title page along with the main story creators.

This issue was a mess, the first half confused Rachel for Jean thoroughly which completely threw me off. Poor Storm! I'm also curious as to what the character arc is for Rachel, there obviously is one but it seems to be the opposite of its intent.
The bad guy threat was pretty weak, but it was resolved in typical Excalibur style, so I liked that nod to the series.
It was a cute issue, and everyone got a part to play, which was a refreshing change. It was lighthearted and a nice 'family reunion'. Maggie was adorable.
I don't think it bodes well for Rachel, though. It's not surprising, because Jean's return never does.
There's basically two Psylockes the one who went through the Seige and never returned, and the ninja thing with her name.
It' like Marvel goes through EXTRA trouble to make sure she's not related to Brian, but in other media extra trouble to make her appear less asian.
She's also the the prominent Braddock outside of the UK. TO make that reveal off panel is like kiling Ackbar. Lol.
I love the Storm moment with her fans. Awesome!
