And we get a epilogue to the story of Quicksilver, one of the biggest dicks in the Marvel Universe and the one behind House of M and the guy who screwed over the entire Mutant population.

HIT THE NITROUS AND THROW THIS B IN SPOILER GEAR

Quicksilver is in jail, probably after what he did in Mutant Town and his work killing quite a few mutants and he's cracked. He's beaten, broken, and talking to his ghosts (Luna, Crystal, Wanda, Magneto, and Layla). All the people that have judged him previously. All the people who have been unfair to him. All the people who have done everything they can to love him and in the same way destroy him.

But he destroyed himself. Did he lose his powers? Or did he feel so completely guilty for what happened that he wished his powers away and hid behind his frail human psyche to actually put up mental barriers to keep himself from accessing his super-powers?

I always felt that Quicksilver didn't fare well at the end of House of M. There was something missing. He had been judged for trying to save his sister and then for trying to find a way to save those mutants who he damned (by stealing the Terrigen Mists). Sure, his actions were stupid and he never thought them out in advance, but has anyone ever done anything stupid for someone you love?

Right?

Peter David hit it RIGHT on the head. I am completely happy to have my super-speedster back. Especially in the face of the return of Barry Allen at DC, this is what Marvel needs. Their own kick-ass super speedster jerk who runs faster than every other superhero out there. I can only hope he is back for good and that this is the return of something big for Quicksilver.

Maybe a Quicksilver ongoing written by Peter David and Pablo Raimondi? Please Marvel Comics?

The final page was worth the price of admission alone. From God's lips to my ears. That is what he said. He mentions God's mercy and immediately is thrown off the top of a mountain into the bottom of a plane and thrown directly into the ocean. THAT is the Peter David charm. And that is why Pete and Pablo work. They complement each other so well in the words and the art together that they were born to do this book.

PLEASE!!!!! Oh and more Boo Cook covers please. What a cover. I purchased the last issue of this comic from my LCS and that made me super-happy. This book is wonderful and people NEED to find a copy. It is very exciting and nice to have our pal Pietro back.
