The Story: SECOND COMING, Chapter 9
This is the end of the line. The horror of what the X-Men face is fully revealed, and the reality sets in...every single mutant on the planet is going to die. They cannot hold out any longer. And X-Force goes on their final mission.

“For so long, my life has been out of control. Chaos and serendipity, wrapped in insanity. I have suffered, I have lost. Not just my life, but my very soul, my self. But no more. Now I know who I am.” – Elizabeth ‘Betsy’ Braddock, daughter of Otherworld, mutant, telepath, telekinetic, defender of the realm and, above all, X-Man.

I'm completely haunted by that panel of Julian.
Guess we can expect an intense fight with this next issue.
why on earth did they make julian's tk pink? it's almost like psylocke is sharing some of hers as a pity act. love that she's one of the only ones not struggling. finally psylocke gets respect and is viewed as powerful and a veteran. in the 90s i would have never thought she'd reach this status. back then they just treated her like a throwaway mutant who only had fighting skills. now she uses her tp and tk like a pro and she's one of the most respected women on the island up there with storm and emma!
The panel where Julian Keller loses his hands is real nightmare fuel even though I'm even that fond of that character.
Loving the panel of Betsy ripping that nimrod apart.
And hoping that Armor will be ok after this.
Intense.
Is that Elixir? (In the cover)...
And I Agree, intense...
Wow, poor Hellion... Namor and Armor seem to be quite injured as well.
And replying to Juanita Estrella, I suppose that blonde guy in the cover is Cypher, since the solicits (not for this specific issue, but for the general event) mention that he will join Cable and the X-Force in the battle in the DOFP future timeline...
Let's see if Psylocke gets a recurring role in X-Force. I can certainly see her employing her fighting skills and tk in a devastating combo.
Oh my. My expression when I saw Hellion was that of X-23. I know he will probably get them all healed up at the end before his own Legacy-ark, but - wow. I feel the touch of Kyle and Yost on that one. They have totally forsaken their best creations (New X-Men), so if that the attention they can get - so be it, I'm grateful for it anyway. Being traumatized is still better that being trapped in limbo and becoming a cameo queen. Oh I hope X-23 and Julian will have at least a second, pleaaase writers?
why is julians tk pink? it should be green...
