Description:
Generation X appear to be trapped in the bodies
of the Hellions, on the day they were killed by
the Sentinels. M tries to waken the other members
of the team and begins to realise what has
happened. Meanwhile, in the dream world, the rest
of the team are panicking over the apparent death
of Monet. Unable to find the headmistress,
Adrienne Frost, M uses her telepathy to return to
the world in which her friends are trapped. She
explains to the team that they are really trapped
in a dream world and that their bodies are
actually in the danger room in the Academy. Just
then Donald Pierce appears through a
teleportation portal and Sentinels follow him
through. Aware that if they are killed in this
world, they die in the real one, the team fight
alongside the X-Men. Ev, synching with Monet,
sees the White Queen trapped between realities
and tries to use M's telepathy to free her. When
the X-Men realise what's going on they turn on
Generation X. Synch manages to free the White
Queen and she shatters the reality and returns
the team to the real world. There they find
Adrienne, and realise that she orchestrated the
entire scenario. She uses some teleportation
device to leave but Emma decides not to follow
her. Comments: Not a really
bad story, but not riveting either. My main
problem is with the art. Dodson draws a really
nice Emma but his Jubilee looks way too young.
The best drawing in this issue would have to be
the one of the White Queen trapped between
realities. But the colours are too bland for the
type of penciller Dodson is. Someone like Liquid!
would suit better, but I guess that's too much to
ask.
