Hello again! This issue is a doozy, so lets get to it.
We start off with the preview, Shehulk talking to the JGS and Beast revealing he knows where Scotts school is. She Hulk tells them all basically to cut the crap and get Scott. Beast tells Logan where Scott is, and he comments about how the son of a bitch is good. So Storm, Beast, Bobby, and Logan head over.
Cut to the new mutant from last issue, and the huge crater he made last issue. He tries to reactivate his powers, but is unable to. Maria Hill sends in a hologram to try to talk him down, but fails. She sends in a team of Agents, but the mutant's power reactivates, cutting and destroying everything in a giant sphere of energy.
We move to the NXS, where the students comment on seeing the X-jet. Jeen and Emma comment about how unsecret their secret hideout is. Beast asks that some of them return to Westchester for the reading. We cut to Scott, sleeping (nude), being awoken by Storm. She, Bobby, and Beast make some catty comments, and ask Scott to get dressed.
Scott and his team confront the JGS staff, saying he wants no part of it, and how he won't accept anything that Xavier left him (Beast makes a snide comment about "how big of you"). Scott thinks its a trick, but Magik confirms it to be true (She teleported to the JGS, and saw She Hulk, playing a game on her phone, and called it off putting lol) Beast offers a lift, but Scott turns it down, saying he will take his own way there. As the Blackbird leaves, he spots Logan, and they exchange a glance for a secon.
The team converses on who will go, with Jeen wanting to go just to be there, and Celeste wanting to go cause she would pay to watch the drama. Scott denies the students requests. Emma offers to go in his stead. He admits he knows Xavier left them the school, and he has no idea what to do. Magik and Kitty joke on how this might be a chill and low key adventure, lol.
Illyana teleports Scott, Emma, Kitty, and Dazzler to the JGS. As they leave, Hijack suspects its a trap and is woried they will never come back, and Celeste suggests that "We'll have to repopulate the mutant race through procreation. So lets get to work!" Eva agrees as ajoke, but Goldballs doesn't seem too happy.
At the JGS, She Hulk prepares the introduction, and reveals Xavier's first sin: HE MARRIED RAVEN DARKHOLME! Everyone looks stunned, save for Emma, who smiles. As She Hulk attempts to remember who Raven Darkholme is, Emma just erupts into a laughing fit. The rest of the group just glares at her. As Bobby attempts to figure out what the marraige could mean, Beast spots a Shi'ar hologram device in the will's files, and starts it up.
The book ends with a hologram of Charles alerting us of his dark secret, and the mutant that is tied to it. End of story.
Amazing, flawless, and just super fun. The Soap Opera of the X-men continues in full force.
Anka slayed with his facial reactions, making nearly every panel of Emma and Magik and Kitty just gif worthy.
In case anyone was curious, in attentdance for the will reading, it was Scott, Kitty, Magik, Emma, Dazzler, Kurt, Firestar, Beast, Logan, Storm, Bobby, and Rachel.
2 main discussion points stem from the first reveal: Does Mystique inherit the school based on being the wife and sole proprietor of Xavier's estate? And what does this marraige mean for the X-men?
