The long-running X-Men Unlimited weekly series on Marvel Unlimited comes to an end this week, with its 142nd issue by Steve Foxe, Steve Orlando and Phillip Sevy before it too gets relaunched as X-Men: From The Ashes next week. So, for now, it is a day from the future but about to be of the past, appropriate given the issue number. But with everyone defeated, both in this title and across the X-Men books, what left is there to sort out for these mutant marauders? Well, checking in with how everyone is. Firstly the vampire immortal mutant Selene…

…literally kept in a box for whenever someone wants to open her up for plot purposes. Basically, she's Dracula… and Dracula is busy.

Selene's whole Externals team joins her in this high-tech version of the Krakoan Pit, and we get a little exposition for what's been going on in the print titles, just in case you are still lagging behind on Marvel Unlimited. But what's next for these folks?

The X-Corps Floating Island remains, as do a few of their mutants. Not taken into the great Phoenix beyond… could they be used by any flailing X-Men team looking for a base? It has to be better than making your house out of a crashed Orchis ship in Alaska, surely,

The rescued mutants remain on Earth, or are dead. Which is worse? Well. that anti-mutant hate is back. Though the boys get a break…

… as do the girls. And Tulkas has a couple of buffed brothers to choose from, if he so wishes.. As for Bobby DaCosta, getting new Sunspot profile in the animated series? Well, he gets the happiest ending of all.

The boys are back. Sam Guthrie is very much Resurrected. But who knows when they will see each other again?
