Uncanny X-Men: The New Age, Volume 2: The Cruelest Cut by Alan Davis, Andy Park, Chris Claremont

2.0
Most of the reviews of this volume are fairly brief. Probably because reading this era of Claremont's run is exhausting. He manages to churn out a confusing set of stories, whilst overexplaining every panel.
The X-23 story had the potential to be interesting but rather than coming to a conclusion, it just sort of stops. And, as per usual, the Hellfire story is a confusing mess of conflicting characterizations and unnecessary redirects.
Check it out for the Alan Davis art, if you're a fan, or if you're an X-23 completist. Otherwise, I'd avoid this.

The only really good thing about this book was that X-23 shows up for the first time. And she's awesome. But they find her and they have a really cool fight, and then they go off and do something else and don't mention her again.
Also, Emma and Rachel get into it, which was also pretty awesome.
So basically I liked those two fights, but wasn't really in to the actual plot of the trade.

Appearance of X-23 made this interesting and was hoping for an end to that story but it jumped to another story.
