For Uncanny X-Men, the key part of AvX was absolutely the "Pax Utopia" section. I'd have happily done a years' worth of Phoenix Five rebuilding the world stories and slowly worked the themes of corruption and power into it. There's clearly no time for that. Instead, I wanted to show the Phoenix Five as a logical extension of what the Extinction Team were already doing. They have the power, and they're going to go and use it. This is the chance to see the Phoenix Five as superheroes. It was showing that while everything had changed, in other ways, nothing have. This is still the team we've been following. In some ways, it's their finest hour. I also loved the poetry of the Phoenix Five climbing over the horizon, visuals out of Akira, soundtrack out of the Fuck Buttons' "Surf Solar." I could write cosmic god mutants forever. (с)
А как бы мне хотелось, чтобы Гиллен продолжал писать про Аватаров *_____*
