    What happened??

    The cover is the only thing I like about this issue. I actually really loved the art and the story leading up to this. Gorgeous space scenes, delicate line work, and vibrant, intricate characters and backgrounds are traded for what?

    The interior artwork is dreadful, dang near unacceptable in my opinion. It's obvious where time was spent and where panels were rushed....if these disproportioned figures and vague excuses for backgrounds represent Boschi's work...count me out next go 'round. Although with the next issue focussing on Psylocke, I won't be able to help but pick it up, just hoping it beyond makes up for 023.

    Story-wise I've also got a bone to pick about digging up Storm's claustrophobia AGAIN.

    I'm mad that this made it to print without someone saying, "Whoa, whoa, whoa. HALT! Back to the drawing board!"
