X-Men: Emperor Vulcan #5 - A Major Disappointment

X-Men: Emperor Vulcan #5, the final issue of the mini-series, is out this week, and Rachel's fans have been anxiously waiting for the conclusion of the Shi'ar adventure and for news on which of the X-books Rachel will appear in next.

But, lost unfortunately, fans are going to have to be waiting much, much longer.

Spoilers for the issue are out and it ends with (scroll for spoilers):






A cliffhanger with Alex, Lorna, Ch'od and Raza captured.


So, like Rise & Fall of the Shi'ar Empire, there isn't an ending, only set-up for another story.

This is incredibly disappointing, since it means Rachel will be out of X-books for most of this year as well, perhaps the rest of the decade. :(

So, Rachel-Summers.com's Bring Rachel Home Campaign continues, urging Rachel fans to boycott the issue and urge Marvel to wrap up with story as quickly as possible and bring Rachel back to the mainstream X-books.
