Okay, so I was excited at discovering there was still one other story to feature the Children of the Vault! And Carey was at the helm? Kinda-sorta excited. Art by Clay Mann? I think he is a good artist, but I was indifferent at that. Unfortunately, I was not expecting to be as disappointed as I was with this collection!
The story seemed to be good in concept, but when it played out? Hmm.. not so much! I felt Rogue was far too angsty during this period, reminding of yet another reason of why I gave reading the X-books during Carey's run!
Besides the story disappointing (come on? Another Children of the Vault story? It should'a been better!), the art really bothered me! I felt the female characters were objectified, looking not unlike a fanboy's bootleg comic! And even worse? Other than Indra's parents, no one looked even remotely Indian? What the fuck?!? This was supposed to Mumbai, for crying out loud, not Miami Beach!!
Conclusion? You can skip on this one! Only reason I gave it 2 *'s was due to some textual backstory to the Children of the Vault!
