Here we are again, with week five of the UXM relaunch. We're at the halfway point, folks.

This is the second week in a row for decent forward momentum on the plot, we got a nice moment of Lorna flexing some muscle, and we got some really lovely art. But man, that confrontation between Psylocke and Angel was not a good note to end this chapter on. It's half because we get a lot of "tell, don't show" with Warren and his new state of peace (which has been around for all of twenty seconds anyway), and half because we're supposed to believe that his going all Archangel is REALLY, REALLY BAD THIS TIME, OK!?! That might have had some impact if Angel'd had a status quo that lasted for more than one story arc sometime over the last few years, but he hasn't, and most of them have been some variation of him being mindfucked or going over to the dark side anyway. This is not new or exciting ground.

So overall good installment with a weak cliff-hanger.
