There is something about Xavier's head in that bottom panel. Taken out of all context, I would SWEAR Jack Kirby drew it. I don't know why precisely, but it evokes!

I'll second how awesome that Phoenix effect is in that panel, JB--it's truly fantastic.
With word from Marvel that the Phoenix is returning (to fight the Avengers this time, it seems), I guess that the idea of the Phoenix being a recurring threat has been realized. Wonder how long it will take them to dub the character "PhoenX."

Imagine if I’d never worked at Marvel!

Wow -love how the Phoenix bird dwarfs Lilandra's. That is one outstanding panel.

Just a note: I really appreciate that JB used proper grammar in that first panel of Thursday's page. I don't often see writers (in all media) these days bother to get it right, and as a long-time editor, I like it when writers do. Thanks, JB!

So - who's opening the 'book' on which of Nightcrawler's "multiple mutations" will survive this process?
Provided he remains blue & fuzzy - and can still *BAMF!* - I won't be heartbroken... ;-)

I hadn't planned any power pruning for Kurt.

This story, man, it's so good but, you're killing me, JB.
Anyway, just as long as you don't kill them...!
