    You don't get to do that

    This final issue of the miniseries doesn't necessarily go where it might be expected to, but the story it ends up telling is quite complex and deep.  As can be expected from the lead-in Psylocke and Wolverine are set for a big battle.  Wolverine wants to keep Matsu'o alive to make him pay for what he has done to him and Psylocke wants him dead for the same reason.  The battle between the two with Jinn thrown in is well paced and runs pretty well.  There are of course a few unforeseen developments but even through all of that this is a matter of who can out think who.  As the series is not focusing on Wolverine it is obvious who accomplishes this but the manner in which this occurs is pretty well conceived.  After the climax the rest seems in a sense unnecessary, though as a morality lesson it does add a little more to the story.  Pretty good miniseries overall which started good and ended a lot better.

      One of the more disappointing moments in Psylocke's history. 0

      I read Psylocke # 4 last night and I truly lost a bit of respect for the characters featured in this book.  I'm going to come right out and say it at the beginning...X-MEN ARE NOT MURDERERS.  Under any circumstances, the X-men do not kill.  It is what sets them apart from all the other mutants fighting for what they believe is the right thing.  The Brottherhood, The Alcolytes, Apocalypse...they all think they are doing what is best for the world but its their methods that make them 'evil".  In t...
