Marvel Comics Universe and Extermination #5 Spoilers and Review follows.

The Fate Of The Original Uncanny X-Men Blue Revealed! Plus Is Kid Cable Friend Or For As X-Men Disassembled Roars and X-Force Looms!

The book opens with a dramatis personae, storyline catch-up and creators’ credits all on one page.

Then we get into the battle between Ahab, his hounds, and the X-Men family!

Kid Cable and the X-Men Blue destroy Ahab’s ship and…

…Cable timeslides them back to the past!

After they arrive…

…Jean Grey wipes hers and the X-Men Blue’s minds of their present-day adventures.

Those actions in modern day have an impact and the battle ends.

Kid Cable leaves the fray on good terms with most of the X-Men…

…as he heads back to his bunker to…

…where the presumed-to-be-dead adult Cyclops is alive and well…

…leading to the Uncanny X-Men Annual #1, Uncanny X-Men Disassembled and…

…X-Force #1!

The Pulse:

An action-packed issue with lots of heart and great art. Surprisingly accessible for such a large cast and complex topic like time travel. 8 out of 10.
