I'd be fine if Rogue where shipped back to the X-Men permanently, if only to get rid of the significant amount of whining over her in each UA-related threads, it's plain annoying at this point.
Also, I don't see what the issue with Janet taking some time off is, she's not a robot for crying out loud.

I have to say I Enjoyed the Artwork too, it was a nice change of pace, even thought I like Acuna, his last few issues where not his best and it is nice to give him a break, but Sanford Greene's work here is nicely done, like his style. Except for when Wanda and Janet are coming off of the plane, everything else looks good, has a Manga feel to it, not much, but some in Mr. Greene's style.
Overall, I found it nice they caught up with the events happening with Rodger, with him growing old and all, feels more like each book is catching up now with each other. Overall, the Preview left me wanting more then most previews do, indeed unlike the last issues where we had a fixed feel on their flow, this one is the 1st stand-alone from the aftermath of the Twins Arc. So indeed I am curious how this one will lead off into AXIS and if any events of Original Sin will play a part too.

Why couldn't they just reverse everything and lose all those memories too? What happens when Lorna Dane finds out?

What happens? We have pure Soap Opera drama!
*brain aneurysm* I can't deal with any more of Wanda's narrative induced reality altering shenanigans. I don't hate her, heck I don't blame Wanda for House of M, as it was Quicksilver who manipulated her when she was at her most vulnerable state mentally, and the realization that her father, Magneto, values ruling the world and his reputation over the lives of his children that caused her to snap and erase/suppress the X-Gene.
That was the first thing that popped up in my mind. Not this baby shit or its name, but the fact Janet and Wanda were talking together about a child with no one else to supervise. Serious, I was panicking and started screaming "BITCH SHUT YOUR FUCKING GOB!" DON'T TALK ABOUT CHILDREN!! BITCH IS GONNA GO CRAY CRAY AGAIN!!!"
Why the stasis tube? Alex is probably gonna go to Scott's school once he's up and about. But please, end this nonsense already and give Hickman the Unity Squad
it may already be too late. They were alone for weeks based on the preview. Who knows what Hell went down because of them. They could be the real reason that Wolverine lost his healing factor, that Thor became unworthy, that Original Sin happened in the first place! Oh the possibilities!
Reading the part of your post where you mentioned the book being caught up to the rest of the MU made the record in my brain stop suddenly, jump back to the preview for a double take and I saw right the first time. If this is caught up to the point after Steve became old, why does Thor still have Mjolnir?
Now now now. Everyone knows the equation is Wasp + Scarlet Witch + Bendis = Disaster. Wasp + Scarlet Witch + Remender = Hatin' On the X-Men.
I hate her and I blame Wanda for her actions, whether it was out of characterization or not is irrelevant, I hate her just like I hate Reed, and Tony for what happened to Bill Foster, and just like how I hate everyone irl who kill people and get away with it #Ferguson.
Also I'm glad Alex looks like a ugly mutant now that is exactly what he deserves.

This is a nice change in pace imo as I'm betting it's going to be another roller coaster ride after this issue.
