Spoilers: After
retrieving Antonio’s memories, X-Force finds out that he was blackmailed into
stealing alternate reality tech for Volga, otherwise his family would be
killed. Among the tech stolen was a serum that turns regular people into super-soldiers
for a short time before it kills the users. The team tracks down Volga’s
whereabouts and plan to assault his airship by surprise. Marrow tells the “baby”
in her mind that her memories are blurred and she doesn’t remember much of her
life before she was kidnapped. Sarah sees Volga’s airship and warns the others.
Psylocke and Fantomex are ready to go in. Cable shoots the aircraft with a missile
and opens a hole. Marrow enters and remembers that unlike Antonio, she was well
treated by Volga’s staff. X-Force regroups inside the ship. Before realizing it
was a trap, MeMe is taken down. Volga appears before them, tells Marrow she
lost weight and orders his super-soldiers to deal with X-Force. Marrow
remembers that she was dumped into Alexandria and that Cable saved her, but her
“baby” was killed: she was pregnant. It seems X-Force and Marrow already knew
this, and Doctor Nemesis had built a healing suppressor for Marrow to bury
these painful memories. Volga then reveals to Marrow that she wasn’t kidnapped.
She volunteered to the experience to get her powers back even though she knew
all the risks of losing her unborn baby. Volga’s super-soldiers overcome Marrow,
Fantomex and Psylocke and imprison them. Volga deals with Cable by himself and
reveals that he injected Natham with the short lifespan serum. Volga doesn’t
know how Cable survived this long. Volga places a detonator on Cable’s chest
and kicks him out of his aircraft. Cable is left to die alone in the desert
until he explodes.

I have to say it was a great issue done by Spurrier. It looks like he stage a whole new level with the members of X-fore when it comes to fighting against a corrupt covert black ops design with mutant powers and new dangerous abilities we have never seen before. Right now, it is X-force lowest point as they are utterly defeated by the evil Volga and his mercenaries. I really love the art done by Molina, it looks like he improve his style of drawing since he was drawing for X-men.
