VERY FINE/NEAR MINT
Written by JOSS WHEDON Pencils & Wraparound Cover by JOHN CASSADAY

Too big to be contained in a normal issue, the grand finale of Joss Whedon (Buffy, Firefly) and John Cassaday’s (CAPTAIN AMERICA, Planetary) landmark run is right here! The powerlords of Breakworld bring the fight to Earth. Can the X-Men stop them from destroying the whole planet? Will the Avengers join their fight? What we do know is this: one of the X-Men won’t walk away from this fight. Plus spotlight interviews with Whedon and Cassaday!

REVIEW by Brian Fisher

This book, right here is why I read comics. No, you're not experiencing deja vu, it's merely the fact that both DC and Marvel released two of their greatest titles on the same day. This is the end of an era (and "era" is appropriate, seeing as how it took four years to go through 25 issues of this series) as Joss Whedon and John Cassaday depart AXM for greener pastures. Despite whatever grudge my predecessor on these reviews may have had against Whedon, I still think his dialogue rings true and hits all the right keys when it comes to drama, action, suspense and humor. A few loose plot threads and contrivances aside this was a fantastic issue and a fitting conclusion to what has been one of the greatest X-Men series ever. And don't drop it from your pull lists yet. Warren Ellis and Simone Bianchi pick up the reins next issue, and you don't want to miss that!

I give it 9 out of 10 Grahams
