Spoilers: Aboard the Blackbird, the X-Men decide that Psylocke is going to lead the team as they don’t trust X yet. At Fetters Hill, reality is collapsing on itself when the inhabitants’ most insane thoughts are given life by Proteus. The Blackbird is taken down by a dragon and the X-Men regroup on the floor. Psylocke orders them to fight Proteus’ psychic manifestations to weaken him. Proteus emerges from the earth and tells the X-Men that he had granted powers to the townsfolks as an experiment to create a beautiful garden with many minds shaping reality all at once. Kevin says it was the civilians who killed one another, not him. Proteus asks X why he is so afraid of his garden if he believes that mutants and humans can coexist peacefully. Proteus won’t submit to the tyranny of reality and wants his garden to grow. Fetters Hill is then engulfed by a massive explosion.
“For so long, my life has been out of control. Chaos and serendipity, wrapped in insanity. I have suffered, I have lost. Not just my life, but my very soul, my self. But no more. Now I know who I am.” – Elizabeth ‘Betsy’ Braddock, daughter of Otherworld, mutant, telepath, telekinetic, defender of the realm and, above all, X-Man.

The art was great this issue but this arc is seriously dragging on.
Unfortunately, I agree. The story was great at the beginning, but now it feels like it should have already ended by now. Also, is it me or is "X" much more of a douche than Professor X used to be even on his bad days?
Fortunately, this arc will conclude on issue #12, isn't it?
I'm glad that they are going to conclude this tired story soon but I'm also sad that Psylocke will no longer appear as a main X-men character now that she won't have a team anymore. Maybe she can join the red team?
