Astonishing X-Men



Kitty Pryde's "death" just about killed me. I am so glad that Magneto pulls the damn bullet back to Earth eventually. Jesus. As if this panel wasn't enough, then you've got Kitty's monologue (from earlier in the series when her and Colossus were being cute) over some sad/cute/nostalgic scenes of the rest of the team. It goes like this:

"Everything is so fragile. There's so much conflict, so much pain...you keep waiting for the dust to settle and then you realize this is it: the dust is your life going on. If happy comes along, that weird, unbearable delight that's actually happy--I think you have to grab it while you can. You take what you can get. Cause it's here and then...gone."

And...Joss Whedon is a master of words.
