Going in the right direction but somewhat confusing
This issue kicks off with the continuation of what happened to Magik in the very end of issues no 4. She tells Cyclops how she apparently teleported to Limbo and met up with the demon Dormammu (the later being a character which Bendis has used a couple times before). The interaction with the demon summons the Darkchilde out of Magik. While telling the story if how she attacked a lot of lesser demons in limbo she reveals to Cyclops how she feels she has lost conrol of her powers (after being possessed by the Phoenix Force) and being truly scared for the first time since way back. Cyclops and Illyana agrees to try to contact Doctor Strange to sort out the problem with the powers. Before doing this Magik again, against her will, teleports herself together with the rest of the cast to limbo. She then transforms to Darkchilde as the issue ends.
This comic is okay. I really like how they start moving the story towards an actual arc rather than telling about the coming together of the group and interacting with other groups. But the lasting improssion of the comic is the feeling of transport. We're moving from one story to another, Bendis tries to cram in some character interaction and evolution of the group dynamics. He does it with his standard style which becomes problematic 'cause the three new mutants in the group (Tempus, Fabio & Triage) are not treated as much as characters but more like vessels for Bendisish dialogue. He can do better than this, he needs to do better than this and I have the feeling he will do better than this.
