After all the X-men have been through, fighting catastrophe after catastrophe after catastrophe, it's a little saddening to see them have to split because philosophical differences between Summers and Logan. In the wake of all their loss, Logan wants to take a more conventional approach to teaching the young mutants how to survive and how to be X-men, he wants to reopen the Xavier school. And the core X-men are split up, their cohesion and the great bond they'd created is done with. It's going to be interesting to see how they respond when confronted with the catastrophes such as they faced as a strong cohesive unit, but at least I know it's going to be challenging and they're going to be underdogs all the way, but all the more is their charm.
Excited to see what Rogue and Logan can achieve back at the old school, my interest too, is piqued, will Rogue and Remy rekindle their love, and how would Magneto respond. Well, let's see what happens in the subsequent issues.
