A great ending to a GREAT issue.

...and I absolutely love the title for the next one.

I think I speak for all in saying we are extremely thankful for that.

JB, were you the first to coin the phrase "Parallel Lives Meet at Infinity" when you used it back in the late 80s?  It's one of my favorite titles -- never expected we'd have the pleasure of seeing you use it once more!  

Perhaps subtitled "Everything Alt is New Again" ...

So much coolness to look at on this last page!

The science officer has a unique yet familiar look, love it! (and guaranteed I would've screwed that right deep set eye up half a dozen times, then added an eye patch!)

The bug like mech med stays true to their core engineering.
Great angles, great layouts...just great!

Unlikely that I would have coined it—tho obviously I have no qualms about using it more than once!

Sorry if this has already been answered or if you don't want to answer yet Mr Byrne...but how many X-Men/Elsewhen issues have you planned on doing ?

I plan to do it until I get bored or run out of stories. How long that will take, I cannot guess!

Twenty issues already! Who'da thought when you showed us that first page? And it developed so nicely - a page a day and fully rendered pencils. The cool thing is that after twenty issues, we're even more excited for what's to come!

This series has been such a mind blowing experience for me, and this issue
has been such a fantastic roller coaster.

Thank you, JB!!

I always though the origin of the phrase was from Geometry: It seems to me a modification of the phrase "Parallel Lines Meet at Infinity"

It is -- and JB correctly understood that I was asking whether he had coined that *modification*.

IIRC John imagined having Phoenix be a recurring X-Men
villain. If we are building towards that with Lilandra,
kudos for killing two "birds" with one stone ;-)
