We already looked a little about what's up with Jean Grey and Charles Xavier in today's X-Men comics, but as well as Immortal X-Men #17, we also have Uncanny Spider-Man #3, Invincible Iron Man #12, Wolverine #39 and X-Men Infinity Unlimited #114. First, Orchis comes to Wakanda looking for Vibranium, in Wolverine.
And they offer a Stark Sentinel in return for a chunk of it. Well, they are useful things.
Uncanny Spider-Man has them being used for crowd… okay, not control so much, more crowd rabble rousing…
While Invincible Iron Man has them tracking down other mutants in New York City.
Their scanners as we have seen, can be a bit erratic however.
No wonder Wakanda is not so keen.
The Sentinels and the mutant hating crowd also bring Mystique to the yard.
A handy scapegoat for all manner of mutant goings on in New York…
Her wife, Destiny, can't get home from The White Hot Room soon enough, can she?
While The Kingpin may feel the same about Vanaheim, the Otherworld home currently holding his mutant wife Typhoid Mary.
It's enough to drive Kingpin, as well as Wolverine who had previously abandoned Krakoa…
As well as Black Panther, who mourns after Storm.
There do seem to be a lot of fridges whose doors have been slammed shut in the mutant world… even if we know those doors will be reopened before Gail Simone and Tom Brevoort take over. We get some fun new takes on a new Fastball special circuit…
…Mystique's power set…
… and while Orchis continue to plot…
… including Judas Traveller using Firestar…
… Tony Stark is doing the same. Both with Firestar…
…and with the Stark Sentinels.
Mother Righteous makes her plans too…
As Emma Frost looks to be going public with… something.
And forget the vibranium, Riri Williams is making ships out of the mutant metal Mysterium forged from kirbons in the White Hot Room – and Iron Man armour too.
Funny, I thought it was Ms Marvel who was best at constructing ships.
