Crystal happily accepts as payback. Emma encourages the X-Men, as Rogue figures out Emma wants blood on her hands. Emma and The Cuckoos instantly control 4 Inhumans mentally. A mentally controlled Johnny leads an attack against Crystal and Medusa. A Mosaic-controlled Storm sweeps in to defend the Inhumans, but Naja jumps him. The X-Men worry as Magneto and Storm are now out. Emma yells at them to fight. Black Bolt jumps at Emma and she crystalizes and rams her hand through his body. Emma mocks him as she holds his bloody body. Karnak and Lockjaw arrive and knock Emma out. Karnak calls her “flawed”, but Emma rebuffs saying she’s “perfect”. Colossus and Havok arrive, and Havok, angry at Emma, blasts her using his powers. Psylocke, X23 and OML corner Medusa, Reader and Frank. Psylocke threatens Medusa and they fight. Reader tells Medusa they need to retreat but Medusa wants to make a stand. Just then, Ahura arrives in a big ship. The ship contains Forge and the NuHumans. Medusa is relieved to see Ahura and Iso, who tell her the truth about why the mutants attacked. Medusa claims they could’ve just asked her. Moon Girl and the NuHumans hand Medusa the control to the “terrigen eater”. As the cloud is about to hit and kill Magneto, Medusa hits the button causing the machines to suck up the terrigen. Emma is not satisfied and wants the attacks to continue. Teen Cyclops jumps in and exposes the truth about Cyclops. Storm asks Emma if it’s true and she gladly admits it saying it’s what Cyclops would’ve wanted. She then takes out her own remote and says “so is this.” Explosions! Mega Super Sentinels show up! Emma has turned them against the Inhumans. Emma mocks Medusa asking her how it feels. The sentinels blow up the “terrigen eaters”. Emma wonders why she didn’t do that earlier. OML saves the life of a grateful Inferno. Forge reveals Emma must’ve gotten in his head to build the sentinels. Cerebra goes to stop them, but Magneto blows them up. Emma thanks him and Magneto replies: It’s like I always tell people… Emma was right! Medusa and Black Bolt fly up together to stop Magneto and Emma. Johnny surprises them all by blowing up a mega sentinel, which allows Medusa to hit Emma and knock her out. Magneto comes to his senses as Emma was controlling him. As Medusa holds a diamond Emma with her hair, Storm destroys the rest of the sentinels. Medusa gives a speech about how much Cyclops’ death tormented her. Medusa then tries to kill Emma, but Havok blasts her. He tells Emma he’s doing this for Cyclops and not her. The two teleport away.

Muir Island: Storm, Jean, and OML meet with Beast to release him and apologize. Medusa narrates that Emma, who’s on the run, is now wanted by the X-Men as much as the Inhumans.

New Attilan: Medusa abdicates, and Iso is the new Queen of New Attilan. For the first time in 200 years, the Inhuman society will hold free elections. Medusa thinks love drove Emma mad and so she dumps Johnny Storm as she makes amends with Black Bolt.

Marvel Announces 'ResurXtion' Mystery Series

Newsamara: Marvel has teased another X-Men title launching this summer as part of its "ResurrXion" relaunch. Announced on Twitter, the promo art by Jim Cheung features Old Man Logan, Archangel, and an unknown number of silhouetted characters. It was tweeted with the caption "The comic series fans have been demanding! Coming June 2017."

Though no title or creative team was revealed, the line-up seems to strongly imply that the new series will be a variation on the more recent iterations of X-Force. Both Logan (albeit a different version) and Archangel were key characters in Rick Remender and Jerome Opena's popular volume of Uncanny X-Force from a few years ago.

Expect more teasers that will reveal this apparent team's roster in the coming days before the inevitable full details of the mystery title are finally announced.

#tbt: X-Men #22 – The Revanche Saga, Chapter 3

#tbt: X-Men #22 – In the state of Lord Nyoirin, the X-Men do battle with the Silver Samurai, whom they manage to defeat. After the fight, Gambit finds a scroll behind the torn painting of Psylocke/Kwannon they noticed earlier. It is Nyoirin's diary. The X-Men study Nyoirin's diary. Written in Japanese, Psylocke says that she cannot read it. Angered, the British Betsy uses her Psi-blade on Psylocke to explain what the scroll said and to mind probe Psylocke to see what she recalls. Through Psylocke's memories, the X-Men see Kwannon on a shipping dock where she finds Betsy Braddock unconscious just after she emerged from the Siege Perilous. Kwannon tries to help Betsy but when they touch both their minds merge and the two people become one mind in two bodies. With the memory finished, Psylocke, who feels angry about what she considers lies from Betsy, attacks her, forcing Gambit to step in and break up the fight. Suddenly, Lord Nyoirin arrives and explains to the two female X-Men that both of them are Kwannon and both of them are Betsy Braddock. Written by Fabian Nicieza and Art by Andy Kubert. Read full summary here.

X-Position – ResurrXtion Revealed With The X-Editors: Part 1

CBR: This week in X-POSITION, the X-Men editors Mark Paniccia, Daniel Ketchum, Christina Harrington and Chris Robinson answer your questions about “X-Men Gold,” “Generation X” and “Jean Grey”!

While I’m excited about ResurrXion, I am disappointed that Psylocke and Archangel are nowhere to be seen after all the amazing character development both got in Cullen Bunn’s “Uncanny X-Men.” Will we see them anytime soon?

Mark Paniccia: First, let’s give Cullen a round of applause for the work he (props to editor Daniel Ketchum as well) put into the series and the craft he invested in these characters. Second, Psylocke and Archangel are very popular but we need just one more e-mail asking for their return before we can seriously consider anything. 😉

Christina Harrington: These are two of my favorite characters, especially after Cullen’s run on “Uncanny.” And after that great character development, I don’t think Archangel or Psylocke will stay off the table for long…

Daniel Ketchum: We have received so many e-mails and tweets about Psylocke and Archangel! Fear not: there is a concrete plan in place for the pair. You’ll hear about it very soon…

Gambit wasn’t a part of any ongoing for years and appeared only as guest star. Can we expect Gambit to join any teams in 2017?

Robinson: I think you’re gonna wanna see the cover to “X-Men Gold” #4…

Paniccia: And there’s some place else he could be popping in the summer. Shhhhh.

I really miss Emma Frost. Specifically, I miss the interactions between young Jean and Emma…even the Cuckoos. I believe Emma was able to push Jean to try new things making her more than she had ever been before, with exception of the Phoenix Force. Are there any plans to have Jean interact with a Emma or the Cuckoos?

Ketchum: Has everyone read the end of “Inhumans vs. X-Men”? Without giving anything away, that series leaves Emma in a very different place than she’s been for the past few years. Needless to say, there are big plans for Emma. I wouldn’t rule out a run-in between Emma and Jean, but Emma has some bigger fish to fry in the immediate future…

Paniccia: Emma has such a rich history with the X-Men that it’s hard to imagine a world without her. There is something sizzling in the kitchen. You’ll hear about it soon.
