While we don't get any resolution to the AoA Nightcrawler betrayal it appears that will be dealt with in a separate book entirely and the focus is placed on the core team members. What this final issue exploits more than anything is that amidst all the current Deadpool haters who think he's just some overused mundane clown, Remender succeeded in making him the heart and soul of this book. Deadpool. Seriously,who'd have thunk it and not immediately brushed off the notion as just another lame Deadpool joke. THIS is the Deadpool I want to read about. If Remender ever returns to write Deadpool in the future just take my money now Marvel and consider it my preorder.

Wolverine has been the most emotionally and mentally decimated by this series than anyone else, including Psylocke, and if you anyone still wants to hate in Wolverine because they think, like Deadpool, he's overuse or find him to be overrated or over powered and one dimensional...clearly missed this series or just enjoy being haters cause haters gonna hate. Remender has written Wolverine better than anyone in recent years including the famed Whedon Run in Astonishing. That's right, that makes this series my new favorite X-series all time and among my favorite comic series in general of all time.

But if Remender deserves credit for anything its for his remarkable work writing Betsy Braddock. She's become one of my favorite female characters in comics through this series. How had she not been a top tier major player in comics is what I wonder after this series? I guess it just depends on the passion a particular writer brings to a specific character.

And while I'm certain people will have mixed feelings about clearing up the Fantomex situation with respect to the revelation of a female looking version of him in the new Uncanny X-Force series, I can only say, without spoilers, that I was completely satisfied with how it turned out.

5 stars for the final issue, and 5 stars for #1-35 of a truly satisfying run from my now favorite Comic Book Writer Rick Remender. I should also give credit to Opena, his artwork conveyed the emotion that otherwise could have made this comic just another X-Title (*cough*Greg Land*cough*)

Agreed, to short of a great run. But def. a great way to end things!
And the whole thing about them going into a different future again I thought was getting played out but totally made sense. Here's more to come.

Also picked up Cable's version and his is pretty darn good so far too.
