Astonishing X-men #24 is the last of the regular sized issues for Whedon and Cassidy and it ends well. There were a few times I felt as though Cyclops was channeling Whedon’s Mal characther from Firefly but that was in no means a bad thing. A- and I’m ready for the Giant sized Finale.

Astonishing X-Men #22. Wow. that last three pages just hit so hard. If Joss Whedon doesn’t get back to scripting film soon then it’s a real shame. This book is the most cinematic the X-men have ever been and they all just feel so right. Seriously, when Whedon leaves comics, which all indicators point to soon, the film world better be ready. John Cassady’s art is superb as well. APLUS best single issue I’ve read in quite some time.
