Uncanny Avengers #3
Uncanny Avengers #3

Captain America is preparing for his Big Mutant Speech in Uncanny Avengers #3. Captain America speeches usually deserve their very own article, so we'll get to that. But the USA is not the only county on the planet affected.

Alpha Flight #4

The mutants are disappointed with Canada over in Alpha Flight #4, as Orchis set up shop in Canafa's governmental Department H, hope of the Flight initiatives.

Jean Grey #3

Jean Grey #3 heads to the past of Inferno, but ties in directly with the events in Immortal X-Men #16 as its opening.

Where Are The X-Men Anyway? #XSpoilers

Jean Grey #3

This is not just one of Marvel's nostalgia projects with the original writers, this is absolutely explaining the current state of Jean Grey. and maybe Madelyne Pryor as well.

Dark X-Men #3
Dark X-Men #3

Madelyne Pryor, over in Dark X-Men #3, is under assault from hallucigenic mutant plants, as is often the case. so while Jean Grey gets a historical recap in her titles from Madelyne's point of view in her title.

Marvel Comics
Jean Grey #3

In Dark X-Men, it's Madelyne whp gets the same historical recap…

Dark X-Men #3

And as Madelyne Pryo operates out of a certain Limbo embassy in New York City…

..that might be the best place for the Dark X-Men to find sanctuary.

Dark X-Men #3

I mean Emplate could ask his sister….

Should Marvel Replace The Word "Uncanny" With "Horny"? XSpoilers...
Uncanny Avengers #3

But she's just left New York for Washington DC and also seems a bit tied up in Uncanny Avengers.

Marvel Comics
Uncanny Spider-Man #3

There are other X-Men operating in New York, of course, but if Nightcrawler is feeling this way about his mother right now…

Uncanny Spider-Man #3

Maybe the Dark X-Men bringing his father into the mix might not be great.

Marvel Comics
Dark X-Men #3

Let alone a parallel version of himself that doesn't exactly play well with others.

X-Men, Orchis, Future Of Mutants
Dark X-Men #3

So where might mutants find safe habour?

Dark X-Men #3
Dark X-Men #3

Over in Vanaheim?

Marvel Comics
Realm Of X #3

Maybe not now that Saturnyne has muscled in.

Marvel Comics
Realm Of X #3

The Limbo embassy?

Marvel Comics
Dark X-Men #3

Maybe not, Luke Cage knows the score on this one.

X-Men, Orchis, Future Of Mutants
Amazing Spider-Man #36

So if not the Limbo embassy,  how about another planet half way across the galaxy, the Shi'Ar throneworld?

Marvel Comics
Alpha Flight #4

 

Maybe just too far. And too mockable.

X-Men, Orchis, Future Of Mutants
Alpha Flight #4

Or how about a very large Mexican vegetable outgrowth?

Marvel Comics
Dark X-Men #3

Although, could there be a way to turn this all around? With those words Captain America is so very fond of?

Marvel Comics
Uncanny Avengers #3

Though it is too late for Warren Worthington III, the Angel. One of the original X-Men…

Now an original cloud of ashes. And as Orchis operate from New York's Empire State University, trying to track down Ms Marvel, as they have already literally gotten inside her head.

Ms Marvel: The New Mutant #3

and plan another way to destroy all the remainin mutants after their assault on Krakoa for the Hellfire Gala.

Ms Marvel: The New Mutant #3

Orchis have all manner of mind-controlling poejcts in play, it seems, mostly in New York…

Uncanny Spider-Man #3
Uncanny Spider-Man #3

And while this Omega Sentinel Karima Shapandar from the future is behind all of Orchis, that doesn't mean all of Orchis are behind her.

Ms Marvel: The New Mutant #3

Does someone at Orchis suspect that it might not be entirely gerat to be replaced by machines? Oh look, there's another one.

Marvel Comics
Alpha Flight #4

Words can do damage too…

Marvel Comics
Uncanny Avengers #3

That trial of Cyclops is coming. And back on campus, was this the real Ms Marvel in Hallow's Eve: Big Night, at Empire State University?

Marvel Comics
Hallow's Eve: Big Night

Possibly not, but at least someone is wearing the costume. Albeit the old one. And it looks like X-Men Red writer Al Ewing is going to bring Storm, in her Regent Of Sol, Queen of Arakko era, into the Immortal Thor action…

Marvel Comics
Immortal Thor #3

While Ms Marvel imagines Wolverine in the Hot Dog Universe of Everything Everywhere All At Once…

Marvel Comics
Ms Marvel: The New Mutant #3

See? Doesn't have to be all doom and gloom for the X-Men… there is still some hope.
