Astonishing X-Men #19
Joss puts us back on track here. Doesn't it seem like everyone is doing outer space stories nowadays? Anyways, it's has become clear why Astonishing was bimonthly for so long: Whedon was trying to get enough completed issues in the pipeline, so that when the action ramped up we wouldn't be waiting two months between issues and lose track of the story. And the story here seems to be a very good one. I'm still not clear on Danger's role in all of this, but it's clear that Whedon had a plan in mind for Ord from the moment he first introduced him. And finally, the dialogue in this issue is what I expect from Whedon - something that he hasn't really delivered on in the last few issues. In fact, if you'll check out the post above, I'm awarding him with this week's Quote of the Week! A VERY GOOD issue. The last couple of pages are classic Whedon.
