I've liked Vaughan's work in the past, especially with the group of teenage superheroes in Runaways, I've always had some fondness for Longshot, and I was hankering for some good old soap operatic X-Men action, and to top it all off, I dig Stuart Immonen's work, so I decided to give this volume a shot, despite not having read any of the rest of his run on this series.

Some people may not like the Ultimate Universe's take on some beloved characters, but for me I was just glad to see Longshot back in comic books. The original series by Ann Nocenti and Arthur Adams are still one of my favorite all-time comic books and having him around (although portrayed much different than the "Earth 616" version of him), is still great.
