X-Men Legacy #225
Marvel Comics
Carey, Briones & Reber
Xavier completes his circle in this issue of Legacy. He returns to the man who helped heal him from the gunshot wound: Exodus. All alone, he confronts and challenges Exodus and the Acolytes. It’s a good issue. I’m not sure it brings the quest to a comprehensive conclusion but it is a good read nonetheless.
