This was pretty dark and only really included Storm. Interior art was okay to bad with spectacular covers. This series is feeling less and less like a continuous arch and I'm not sure if that's because I sometimes left 3 or 4 months before moving on to the next graphic novel or just because it's not a continuous arch. I'm definitely hoping that the newer X-treme X-men series is better (for me) than this one.

Incomprehensible trash. Borderline porn. Terrible art.

Another abrupt swerve in storytelling by Claremont, he abandons every character in his run except for Storm, in order to tell a story where she gets to run into other X-characters no other writers were using, all while....fighting in a gladiator arena?
It's a supremely dull story, no matter how many exclamation points are used when he reveals the involvement of a long unused character.
Kordley's sense of anatomy is wonky, as well. Sometimes heads are so large, and necks are so bendy strawed, you expect the characters to just fall over.
I only recommend this for Storm enthusiasts who want to know all of her continuity. ANd maybe people who really jones for stories involving Callisto and Strong Guy.

My rating for this book has changed... After a reread after many years you start to see the cracks in Claremont's writing in this series. Whether it is editorial issues or not (as you can see that the overall story in his run of the book had change) it certainly started to lack something.
