    A Little Rushed 4

    In the short time this series has been out it has done nothing but amaze me, as although I thought it'd be good, it's been outstanding. It is also becoming one of my favourite series, and although I wasn't planing on getting it after Battle of the Atom if it stays this way I'll definitely be keeping it.PlotAs Storm, Rachel Grey, Psylocke, Sublime, Jubilee, and Shogo head for Budapest in search for Arkea, Kitty Pryde, and the students of the Jean Grey School for Higher Learning have their own pro...

    This was originally reviewed at my blog here.Issue #3 marks the close of this first arc of the book, involving Arkea and John Sublime. Last issue, Arkea took off from the Jean Grey in a spectacular style and here, we are treated to how the “current” X-Men team under Storm’s provisional leadership is dealing with the whole matter.Right off the bat, there are two huge highlights of this issue. The first of these involves Kitty, who has been left in charge of the school while the rest of the team t...
