oof. I'm gonna find them but she said something to the effect of: "From my knowledge, DP: Assassin is out of continuity. So Belladonna's gonna appear in my story." But what made this DP mini different from the other 2846483 minis that he did? It clearly followed Threnody's dropped 90s plot point + some other loose ends. There really could be a whole thread on Bunn's X-Ideas that got ignored. I'm still sour we never got "God-King Virus Fantomex vs X-Men" or whatever he would've done with Mystique after Betsy healed her psyche.
It's super hypocritical but imma be honest, if any other mutant students were in Eye-Boy's place, then I would've been mad. But I honest-to-god don't care about Trevor Hawkins and if he were to trip over a pebble and die in half of one panel in #6, I'd congratulate Kelly, Matthew, and Ed.
Jubilee: omg Archangel's about to completely SLAUGHTER Lorna's dad. Should we stop him?
Psylocke: idk let him beat the crap out of Lorna's dad for a little bit, then we can step in.
Polaris: .......
The art is OK. I don't think the art styles are particularly congruous. It's not like DC where you can have Jason Fabok, Tony Daniel, David Finch, Ivan Reis, Ryan Sook, Mikel Janín, and a few others rotate art duties on a single book and never notice a dip in stellar quality or a major difference in art style. The Uncanny artists are competent but aren't blowing my mind with how awesome their art is.
Half of his opponent is made of metal... and Magneto doesn't stomp? Definitely mind-controlled.
Maybe Apocalypse can end the Archangel foolishness 'once and for all' later in this arc?
Nah! We're stuck with vacillating Warrchangel forever.

Seriously dude. Is this not like the 4th time he's had this stupid story?
Remender was right. He should have stayed dead.
And Betsy is emotional about it?? Bish you already killed him in this form! Move on. Thank you, Next!
This issue is probably going to be the most annoying one for me. Whatever.
The art is lovely. Nice to see Storm taking the lead here. I do wish we could see Polaris express some kind of emotion over what's happening to Magneto. Her having no reaction whatsoever is definitely a flub on the writers part. I wish she could have a larger arc with her father, and I think it'd be more interesting to see her trying to appeal to Magneto, than the retread of Psylocke and Angel. I like seeing Betsy getting focus, but it would be nice if they came up with something else for her to do.

I come when there's something to take but I never give anything back.
I know what you want. But it is not here. It's gone and it will never ever come again...
Betsy: Technically, he's supposed to be dead BECAUSE I ALREADY KILLED HIM. So, it's cool.

This ish art is ten times better than last issue.
Betsy should really go on a romantic date with Angel/ArchAngel again.
This 'never forgive you' stuff is so lame since Angel has lived with Arch-Angel for decades.
Betsy should heal Angel's psyche once again, not like she's never done that before.
Lame....
Agreed, it’s really way out of a character the way they are depicting Lorna not giving a single damn about her father’s possession and if he lives or dies here.
Archangel managed a near fatal hit on Lorna with metal in the 80s when she was possessed so it definitely lowers one’s aptitude.
