What began as a simple search and rescue has escalated, with not just the X-Men but the entire town of Merle at danger! And as 3K steps out from the shadows for the first time in order to further their twisted program, will the Means, their anointed headsman, slake his bloodthirst on the X-Men?
I still have mixed feelings about Cassandra Nova as a character, but Jed MacKay is utilizing her really well in this issue. Reminds me of Jonas Venture Jr.
Magik is also fantastic in this issue, her line to Juggernaut about demonic pacts is hilarious, I love this book’s sense of humor. It clearly comes from a place of great love for all the characters on MacKay’s X-Men team. And I also love them so it works for me. Excited to see more of that Jennifer Starkey character in the future

I’m not even gonna say anything to spoil it. Jed McKay’s run of this series has been a worthy chapter so far, and continues to be. This definitely has the feel of a die hard X-Men fan writing for die hard X-Men fans. Go pick it up!
