Right now, Scott and Emma are separated from the rest of their friends, because they decided to take a little siesta down in the Savage Land. Actually, everybody kind of went their own separate ways after the whole Mutant Messiah story-line. Pete, Kurt and Logan are in Siberia. Not really up to anything specific. Pete decides to visit the grave-site of his parents. He wants to pay some respect. However, he decides not to go back to his home town. " . . all who live there believe I am dead." So they just find the nearest watering hole, so they can relax and unwind a bit before they catch the next train out of town. But as luck would have it, while they're visiting, some of the local riff-raff decide to try to shake down the bartender for some money. Gee!! What are the chances? Logan in a bar fight. But apparently they've fallen on somebodies radar, because back in Moscow someone is interested it Pete's whereabouts. " . . it's been too long since the red room had mutants to play with." Meanwhile on the other side of the world, in San Francisco, Warren and Hepzibah have run in to a problem of their own. There seems to be some kind of mass delusion going on, and everybody thinks they're back in the 60's. Livin' and Lovin' in Haight Ashbury. It seems to have something to do with some "goddess" that's in on of the hippy's attic. Could it be Ororo? We don't know. We don't get to see her face. In Emma's words, "I'm not sure . . but this doesn't feel like an attack Scott. Feels more like an acid flashback creeping through the city." Not a bad issue. It wasn't very exciting though. We're just seeing the beginning of these 2 story-lines, so we don't know a whole lot about what going on other than the participants and the locations. Ed Brubaker does the story, and Mike Choi does the art. It was . . ok. It wasn't one of the best X-Men books ever. But it was . . . ok.
