I haven't read it, or any new comic for several years, but I understand that it has been well receivied amongst critics.

I had read good things about it online myself.

Quote:

A sad legacy of the Byrne and post-Vyrne process is that many writers and readers don;t get the core "heart" of Vision's story.

Yes, it created a generation of readers who thought that the character who famously cried in his second appearance was always supposed to be emotionless. Honestly, I'm not even sure how Byrne ever came to that conclusion himself.

Put me down for "interested".

I've posted a more lengthy run-through above of plot points and some thoughts on it all. There's a lot that one could go over in just those two issues though, let alone the implications of it all.
