I enjoyed A+X #2 a lot more than the previous issue. Chris Bachalo handles both the art and writing on the first story and Peter David and Mike Delmundo deliver the second. I was happy to see nods to current continuity with the Kilgore Mark X Sentinel and references to the recent pregnancy/infestation issues of Wolverine and the X-Men.
Bachalo shows a day off gone bad for the Black Widow as her relaxation time gets interupted by a battle between Rogue and a Sentinel. Natasha of course can't sit by and joins in to put a stop to the Sentinels plans. There is a good amount of humor throughout this story but again not a much occurs. I personally love Bachalo's art and he draws this in his normal, chaotic style. But that's what makes it so fun to look at.
The second story is written by Peter David and drawn by Mike Delmundo. It features Kitty Pryde being summoned to Resilient (formerly Stark Resilient) so that Tony can try to sway Kitty into taking a job there.
David gets some great lines of dialogue in and delivers a cute story. Mike Delmundo's art compliments the tone of story well, and was a good choice to be alongside Bachalo in this issue.
