One thing I would say irritated me regarding issue 15 is the manner in which Colosus was taken down.

He was one of the first x-men to encounter Shaw and would be familiar with his power. He has also spent much of his life as an x-men(especially his early years where he encountered Shaw) learning to think in combat situations and not just use his brute-strength. It seems a bit unrealistic that he would go all out on Shaw in the manner he did. I understand that Joss justified this by refering to his incarceration at Benetech and Shaw’s mention of Kitty. I’m not saying it was totally unjustified, I’m just saying it jarred slightly in my mind.

The rest of the issue was flawless as usual with highlights including Wolverine shouting: "The moose has found my scent again. Oh!" It was also nice to see a couple of the supporting characters in the form of Hisako and Blindfold. Not sure about the reappearance of danger yet but time will tell.

I loved the last panel which directly mirrors Wolverine’s "Now its my turn" moment in the x-men’s original battle with the hellfire club.

PS- I think the cloaked figure is Sage but it seems a little too obvious...
