A lot of startling discoveries are thrust upon us this issue. We find out some more about this Banshee drugs that's hit the streets lately. Basically it's a mutant DNA hormone that temporarily gives mutant powers to anyone that takes it. But it takes a pretty hefty toll on the body of the participant. Also, mutants are taking it because it makes them essentially . . gods. It doesn't last forever, but it is very addictive. We found earlier in this story-arc that the Canadian super-team . . Alpha Flight . . were all on the cocktail in some form or another. That's why, when Peter put his team together to find out where this stuff was coming from . . that's the first place they went. But in order to stand up to them, they all had to take it also. It seems like the biggest one tweaking off of it is Scott. Anyways, long story short, Wolverine put some of the pieces together. It seems like the original research was done by Charles and Moira. Charles found a way to manipulate Logan's DNA, but . . he says . . he quickly abandoned the research. However, Moira couldn't let it go. She says that she was doing it for mutant-kind . . to make the world safer for them, but really, she was in league with Magneto. After Logan blows up the island, and all the Banshee, Quicksilver comes to pay Moira a visit. "This is very . . . disappointing. My father has a new plan on how to deal with these . . humans." I'm enjoying Aron E Coleite's stories on this title lately. They're a far cry from the last couple of story-arcs. And I much prefer Mark Brooks' pencils. I really was about to give up on this book. But it really seems like it's improving . . as it gets closer to this Ultimatum story-line. I just can't wait to see what they have in store for the Ultimate Universe with this one. Remember . . that's why I like this concept . . anything goes!
