Uncanny X-Men #476 - Marvel

Billy Tan's artwork just keeps getting better and better. Xavier has his striketeam, on thier Shi'ar spaceship, off chasing Gabriel, Vulcan. He's got James Proudstar, Gabriel's brother Alex, Kurt, Lorna and Rachel. Oh yeah, and Darwin. He was one of Vulcan's team of X-Men. Anyways, Charles knows of a hidden Shi'ar base, and the team goes there and steals a spaceship. Then they start heading for the jumpgates that will take them to Shi'ar space. It's good to see Charles back. Even if it is in a limited capacity. He still thier mentor. There's some good character development between Alex and Scott. This is the second part of, I think, an 8 part storyline. So, we're really just getting started. It should be a good bumpy ride.
