    A Fitting End, If A Bit Rushed

    I don't know how much time has passed in Marvel - probably a year or so, but in the real world, Kitty has been intangible since 2004.  Will she finally be cured?  This issue gives the answer as well as, hopefully, solving the Breakworld issue once and for all.  Of course, since Astonishing is a bit behind the other X-books, Kitty will be intangible there no matter what happens in this issue.  Since this issue is the final battle and resolution, there isn't a way to mention too much without it being spoilers.  I'll just end by saying I think the way the story is book-ended (ie the way it started and ends) is perfect.  I can't wait to see what happens in the next issue.  They mention something about Rachel Summers - but in X-Men: Legacy she's in space, I think.  I'm really curious how it all fits together.

      The Conclusion of Breaking Point 0

      We know Uncanny X-Men is coming to an end but this conclusion to Breaking Point makes it feel like this was the end.The GoodIf you've been wanting any loose ends from Joss Whedon's Astonishing X-Men/Breakworld storyline, they pretty much are all tied up here. If you didn't read last issue, here's a little spoiler, Kitty Pryde gets killed. For real. But you'll still see her in this issue. I have to admit, in the opening pages, I almost felt like I missed something between this issue and the last ...
