Nightcrawler #10 Spoilers

Spoilers: Aboard the Blackbird, Ziggy and Rico face the Shadow King. Meanwhile, Bloody Bess reveals that once Psylocke got inside her head, she was able to free her mind from Shadow King’s control. Kurt, Betsy and Bess team up to take on the Crimson Pirates. After they’re all defeated, Psylocke and Bess decide that Kurt is best suited to fight the Shadow King on the astral plane as Nightcrawler is somehow immune to his powers. Psylocke sends Kurt’s psychic avatar to the Blackbird where he faces the Shadow King. Kurt stabs him with a psi-sword and traps the Shadow King back into Omega Black’s body. Back on the physical plane, the sea-dogs stab Kurt at the same time. The Crimson Pirates take Ziggy and Rico as hostages and leave the place. The other X-Men wake up, as Kurt dies slowly. At the spiritual plane, Kurt meets Amanda Sefton, Jean Grey and Wolverine who all encourage him to go back and save the children. Kurt returns to the physical plane with all his wounds healed and promise to rescue the kids.

Nightcrawler #9 Spoilers

Spoilers: Nightcrawler battles the Shadow King-possessed X-Men. He first has the Bamfs teleport Psylocke away and throws Rachel at Colossus, taking out the telepaths first.

The Shadow King loses control of Storm for a brief period and her uncontrolled weather powers help Nightcrawler to take out Iceman and Colossus. Psylocke returns in control of the Crimson Pirates to ambush Kurt.

Claremont Explores "Nightcrawler" Post-Afterlife

CBR News spoke with Chris Claremont about Nightcrawler's feelings on death and resurrection, his coming confrontation with the Shadow King, and the appeal of a long-term collaboration with artist Todd Nauck.

The last time the Shadow King was part of a major story was in "Uncanny X-Force." At the end of that story he was in the custody of Kurt's friend and former Excalibur teammate Captain Britain. Will you get to write Captain Britain again in this story?

Claremont: No, the original story concept involved Kurt and Brian [Braddock AKA Captain Britain], activities in England and reunions with old friends. I think Daniel's concern as Editor is to keep the book more focused and more essential than in my case, where I'll throw in everything plus the kitchen sink just to keep it interesting and provide more possibilities down the road. So what we have is consistent with established continuity with a few modifications.
