Nice short adventure book. Not high art, but pretty good. The characters in it ring true. The caper basically worked. And Hope's bit at the end was particularly nice. And Piotr and Kitty had there bit as well. And Cable wasn't at all horrible.

The first volume was so promising and forward-moving, but this second one didn't deliver. Maybe because it was a lot of set-up, but I'm just not interested after the weird sexual alien art thing with Boom in Issue #7 (seriously, look back at it, it's so uncomfortable). After that, I was just annoyed. Domino is annoyed her booty call doesn't rect to her appearance, anything with Hope stopped making sense. (If the Avengers wanted Cable, why aren't they using her? Why do they keep talking about her being normal after what's already happened.) Mostly the alien thing, because I was so happy about the first volume.

How can they take someone as badass as Cable and make his comic so.. so-so? I see some promise, but Cable and X-Force is not quite there yet.
