Also, with trans-dimensional hi-jinx happening, it seems somehow appropriate that he would “interfere”—can’t have other dimensions influencing what he’s watching!

"Interfere?  Moi?  All I said was 'Magneto.'  Not 'alt-Magneto' and certainly not plural 'Magnetos'.  Not anything about what he or they might be up to, or where.  As a certain human I've met is wont to say, 'don't read between the lines . . .' "

What is really amazing is that even though we've been seeing alt-angle and alt-iceman for some time now --- when the "real" ones showed up it still felt like we were seeing them for the first time!  I think it was the well-scripted and dramatic entrances.  Well done sir.

How neat to see them both interacting with the "new" team. A dream come true...(or am I dreaming all this in an asylum?)

Wow. That is one heck of an image for Angel on page 7.

Gorgeous page, JB!

I hope you let Iceman and Angel stick around for a while!

Agreed, at least long enough for an original X-Men reunion (noting that when we last saw the Beast he was helping at the hospital where Alex and Lorna were recuperating).

I see that Angel's wearing the original boots. Is it safe to assume that he's back to the blue/black costume? And on that note, which color is Archangel's?

Since Magneto himself designed Angel’s costume, and the color changes came later, via editorial fiat (or fiddling), I think we can assume Archangel’s outfit has the original colors.

(Never did care for the red/yellow version. It seemed as if someone had said “Look at this cool design Neal came up with! Let’s try to make it ordinary!”)

Though I've only seen it from the aforementioned Hulk Annual 7 and this brief re-glimpse, I've always loved Angel's super cool house, too, though I know nothing of its origins. Was that created by you John?

First drawn by me, I think yes. Probably Roger Stern’s suggestion.

All Angel can do is fly (until they started screwing with him and that "Death", "Archangel" and all that crap.) There are several who can do this; Falcon, Peregrine, Nighthawk, many others who just fly. He's got an extra ability, but not hella special.

But YOU draw him, Mr. Byrne, and he is suddenly noble, stately, majestic, and the guy to the rescue! Like your Hawkman, you make the very fact that he is winged a special ability. You manage this with many of your characters - but Angel is a real super hero at the pencil of the master.

I knew the Champions broke up. Now I know about when. But that might have made a nice little one issue crossover.

And thank you for providing Bobby and Warren with intelligence. One word... but it's all they needed. And I do not care when they learned of the Watcher. The FF met him, shared that with the Avengers and the X-Men - made a hell of a lot of sense. I mean, the last time he appeared, he presaged the appearance of GALACTUS. So his appearances are pretty important.

I would LOVE to see Hank, or even Pietro and Wanda show up. But it wouldn't quite feel right, I think. Maybe Alex and Lorna, though... ah. I'm sure your further surprises will be, as always, startling and delightful.

But... "BIN a while, huh?" (emphasis added.) I'm not sure how to differentiate between pronouncing "been" and "bin." And in the end... is that the style in which Warren speaks? I usually think of him as a bit hoity-toity, and proud of his speech. Although again... who would know the difference? Even the Watcher might overlook this one. :)
