Along the way, stories unfold directly around the setting, offering readers’ a sort of sampler package of some much beloved fictional universes, each of which holds the potential to impact, define, or redefine the Excalibur characters as they encounter it. 7/7

The story begins with a dive into a world of Arthurian Romance in the spirit of Thomas Mallory’s “Le Morte D’Arthur” or T.H. White’s “The Once and Future King.” This initial foray sets the tone for juxtaposing Excalibur with a different fictional universe. 2/7

All in all, the issue provides readers with a clear articulation of who Jubilee is as an individualized character of surprising depth and complexity, bound together with an endless dynamism worthy of her name. 10/10

The issue also offers a scene where Jubilee makes lewd comments about the male Harriers, establishing that she is “shameless,” while also exhibiting a rare sexual agency for a female comics character. 9/10

This of course emphasizes Jubilee’s commitment to front her way to the appearance of independent adult, despite her child-like desperation for community and affection (a desperation that defines her commitment to Logan). 7/10

Her teenagerly nature is further showcased in scenes showing her fear and vulnerability (a consistent aspect of her portrayal). At one point, she literally hides under her bed, then gets angry at herself for being seen doing that. 6/10

UXM 261 feels more or less like a backdoor pilot for “Hardcase and the Harriers” but it also features some strong initial character development of Jubilee, defining the complex dualities and opposing extremes that readers identify with in Jubilation. 1/10
