I am excited we are back with the main team! The alt universe "Captain Britains" in the last issue was ok, but I wanted to see what happened to everyone, and poor Jubilee just wants to get her baby back!
We are MUTANT..Krakoa, FOREVER!!! “Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité”
Awwww!! Poor Jubes and Shogo.

As someone who fell off Excalibur after the second issue, is there anything of note or important to know leading into X of Swords? Cause Tini is pretty involved in the upcoming crossover. Should I go back and read the spoiler threads for the last couple issues, or do you think I'll be good?
Honestly? Mostly nothing. Apocalypse took over Avalon and put a puppet king in place, vivisected Morgan, and spent a few issues collecting magic pieces for some kind of spell. Everyone just sort of went along with it. Jamie made a few copies of the team to be a fake Captain Britain corp and tried to take over the Star Citadel. That's pretty much it.
UHUH... Spent six months waiting for this. Jubes better get some REAL payback. This "holed up inside a magic tree after someone tried to kill her son" thing isn't cutting it.
If I had a dollar for every time I was holed up inside a magic tree, I swear...
mozzle, issue #12 is listed as a prelude on the X of Swords checklist so that will likely be the MOST connected issue. •-[A]-• has been trying to get access to the Arrako transit thingy but it hasn't really happened yet.

Yay another unexciting issue with basic dialogue.
She just doesn’t excite me as a writer. I don’t see what others are seeing.
Totally forgot what happened to Shogo.

None of Excalibur issues were good. It is easy the lowest quality DOX book right now.
I am sad for Marcus To. He deserves better.
I hope it will end with Swords of X and characters will be saved in other projects by better writers.
Everyone is so quick to be negative these days.
I’m really looking forward to the issue. Excalibur’s picked up a lot of steam over the last couple of issues.
Matter of opinion of course. to me it is not the lowest quality DOX book, but it is close to it. Quite some characters seem to play supporting roles, well actually, the whole team, except Betsy and a bit for Rictor, seem to play a supporting role with barely any developments.
