I've loved this book since it's inception. And now with Chris Claremont on board, it seems to be getting better and better. I also have to say, this Steve Scott on pencils also seem to be getting better and better. We're still dealing with the Fantastic Four storyline. Longshot is really the first one to notice that's there's just something not right with this world. His powers are kind of empathic, so with what he's feeling from the people in this world, he's really feeling weird and disconnected. It's really disorienting him. Morph is following him around, because he also knows somethings wrong, and with the basis of Longshot's powers, he's hoping that he'll lead him to something that will explain things. In the meantime, Victor is not nearly as cordial as he's acting. But we all knew that was coming. Anyways, he has Sue seduce Creed. Then while he's out, they steal the Tallus and copy it. He then launches a mini invasion into their world, which he doesn't know yet, but it's the crystal palace. Also, at the end of last issue, Kitty Pryde has shown up there too. We don't learn much more about that this issue either. Elisabeth tries to talk to her, but she's very confused. Somebodies sent her there on purpose, but we don't learn much about that this issue either. Eventually our heroes end up down in Reed's domain, under the earth. But they aren't there long before they're attacked by the Hulk, She-Hulk and Johnny Storm. Luckily Blink gets them out of there before they're beaten up to much. And back at the palace, I'm just guessing, but it looks like some automatic defenses have been activated because of the intrusion on their home soil. It looks like it's awoken and released John Proudstar from his stasis. And he looks like he's ready to kick some ass. This really is a fantastic book. Lots of cool ideas. Great characters. And anything can happen because nothing is set in stone. And honestly, that's what I like the most about this series. Well that and . . . did I tell you Chris Claremont is writing it now?
