    That's like, one of the best character descriptions I've seen in a while. Also, I'm really liking the poor Mindless Ones. They're sympathetic shmucks.
    I like how unequipped they are for having thoughts.

    I would say think of it as a spoilers:
    truth bomb that reveal everything to everyone asembled and beyond
    end of spoilers

    I saw that last page and instantely thought of that full page shot of Wolverine saying, "I remember everything" after House of M.

    That's the best comparasion to make.

    I think part 3 will be better than the prior 2 issues. We got them going into the Watcher's base for clues and the fallout from the eye. Some pieces should start to fall even as it gets closer to setting up the real villian.

    Didn't expect to see Oubliette back so soon after Young Avengers (and discovering she's actually Marvel Boy's kinky soulmate... XD), the choice of villains here was unusual but somewhat refreshing instead of being underwhelming.

    All in all I liked the issue, it was nothing spectacular, but it had its moments (Doc S and the Punisher work well togheter, who would have said that???)

    I'm really digging this series so far. I'm sure things will only get bigger and crazier from here on out but even with these two issues, it's been an enjoyable offbeat event. Lots of heroes and villains who normally would take a back seat in a story like this are getting the spotlight treatment and I love it.

    I totally agree with you, i havent seen a descrption like that since "Cyclops—Scott Summers. Leader of the X-Men. Owner of a jetpack.".

    And poor mindless ones, i feel really bad for them.

    Am I missing something? When did Emma Frost get her telepathy back? Wasn't that broken in Uncanny X-men, unless I'm misremembering

    Its like that's only happening in Bendis's books. Namor looks normal in NA and Invaders

    Loving this event. I like how much smaller it feels despite all the characters. Not every marvel event has to be a giant battle

    And yeah the character descriptions are good. I had no idea who either of these goons were but I now have everything I need to know

    Namor wasn't broken, not that it was explained anywhere but online, but because he lost his power first.

    Emma's had some limited telepathy, reading electrical impulses and such. Or something like that.

    There seems to be some relaxing of that right now going on in Uncanny.
