Spoilers
Well, well, I got the last issue of Whedon's first arc... What a great issue! I really enjoyed this one. The team dynamic just rolls with every line any of them say and they pick back up right where they left off with Colossus. Really great stuff.
The story was a good one, too. I really liked how the mutant deal is still a huge thing with the government and all after Morrison's run. Astonishing seems to be the only title that hasn't forgotten that Morrison had a run, which I appreciate a lot. SHIELD seems to be somewhat rivals with the X-Men now, but I guess we'll wait and see.
Ord, when it came down to it, was a villain that I would want to see come around again. He's got an interesting edge to him that I just would love to see more of. Next time, though, let's see more of this Breakworld that Whedon sort of played up... I'd love to know more about them if they didn't have a past in the 616 universe before.
And, Ice, please read the last page of this issue... I really hate to say I told you so, but I really, REALLY have to. I knew that Emma would be jumping on the baddy bandwagon again! I knew it!
