Stories

Untitled · 22 pages
While the X-Men try to keep Stryker and his purifiers from killing Cable and Hope, Cyclops sends the New Mutants to face Hodge's heavily armed Right soldiers and prevent them from joining the fight. The kids do pretty well until Hodge dons a giant battle suit and stabs Karma through the leg with his spiked tail. Meanwhile, back in Utopia, Cyclops tries to figure out how Bastion is tracking Cable and Hope so efficiently.

Publisher’s description

The X-Men are hot on the trail of Cable and Hope when they meet Bastion's forces head-on. Meanwhile, the New Mutants are hitting Bastion's second-in-command, Cameron Hodge. Can they survive a showdown with Hodge's minions?
