·         Cable is back and no Techno Organic virus in his system thanks to Hope.

 

The Bad:

·         There are no polar Bears in Antarctica as seen in issue 4, they live in the North Pole.

·         Thing defeats Namor under water in his element imposible.

·         AVSX Consequences is a waste of paper it could have been done in 2 issues instead of 5.

The Good:

·         It’s cool to see the relationship between the Phoenix force and Ironfist.

·         Namor Destroys Wakanda.

·         We discover the Magik could have removed the Juggernaut curse on Colossus anytime but she wanted Colossus to suffer like her.

·         It’s a punch fest and a fun read.
