Ultimate X-men #88 (spoilers)

I liked this issue, except for the return of Beast, which just reminds me how stupid deaths and revivals are in comics, and Shinobi Shaw and that Shiar dude trying to drug Jean, it just felt really out of left field and a plot line that could have been built up a little more and have some actual meaning. What I'm really liking now is the future story line and the whole Legacy Virus thing. It really feels like the old UU with conspiracies, mysteries, realities of govt in a superhero world, and great potential.
 
This book has had great potential for a while now, but it hits bad issues as much as it hits good issues. There's only so long "potential" stays before it either pays off or it dies.

Since Apoc appears in two issues, I'm hoping we get our big payoff for this year long build up, but knowing that Ultimatium is getting closer each month...
