I just realized I've been mentally "pronouncing" Gladiator's name as "Kal-ark" which is a total mash up of Superman's two identities.

Everyone seems to be paying Professor Xavier quite a bit of deference here. I expected that of the X-Men, and maybe even Thor and his fellow Asgardians after Xavier's display of mental prowess. However, I'm surprised that Gladiator (and to a lesser extent the Shi'ar) seem to let X take the lead. 
 
 Charles in charge?

Noticed just now that August is a bit “lopsided”, and if I stick to my First Monday posting policy you’ll have a long gap between the end of 25 and the beginning of 26. So, to “balance” this a bit I’m going to delay the start of 25 to Thursday of next week. The new pages will be posted daily, as usual, except weekends, after that.

  Thank you!

It just hit me that since the Shi'ar are still around, maybe we'll see more Jahf. That would be nice. Even just to say good bye.

JB, when a storyline approaches its wrap up, do you ever feel like "on to the next thing!" kind of anticipation/excitement since you know what's coming next?
