    Wait, their whole sob story is about some white guy that basically let 20,000 people die because he made the drugs too expensive so they are stealing the drugs so they can do the same thing to their people as the white guy? And how could they sell them in their home country for exorbitant prices, unless Xavier was selling them for exorbitant prices (or withholding them) in the first place? Therefor, is Xavier also as bad as the white guy who got offed off panel and everyone is happy happened?

    Their country hasn't signed the agreement that recognizes Krakoa as a nation, so they aren't getting any of the Krakoan drugs shipped there

    So the citizens of the country (probably) want the drugs, creating a demand that can be met by this biker dude who sells them on the black market.

    They aren't being provided to their home country because they haven't agreed to recognize Krakoa as a sovereign nation per the trade agreement. If they agreed to recognize Krakoa, they would be given the drugs, and their government would set the price depending on what form of healthcare the country has, not Xavier.

    I also love how they found a little loophole in the Krakoan Loaw. It says no mutant will kill a human their technically not doing the killing.

    Part of me was hoping they would be rehabilitated after Ahab's last defeat, but I have to admit, I'm starting to like them this way.

    I accept your reality as my own.

    As for this, I'm dropping it until we get back to space. Issue 2 was just amazingly good. 3 was like dropping off a cliff by comparison, such a let down. I'll pass on 4.

    Shaw is already doing that, but I suppose that these guys want to make profit or didnt have enought money to buy the drugs in the black market

    They want to make profite, they say it clearly. They DO NOT want their country to recognize Krakoa because they can have a drug monopoly.

    Me thinks, I’ll be dropping this series after Hickman leaves.

    It started off so strong... *sob* it was actually fun.

    Once again they found themselves trapped in front of the abyss.”

    Pretty much. I've enjoyed some of Brisson's other X-men work like Extermination and even his parts of Age of X-man. I love Beak and Angel but I just wasn't feeling this issue (or the last one).

    Imagine if the plot was Surge, Rockslide, Synch, Wallflower, and Monet were the ones going out, recruiting mutants (more than just one rescue mission, more like one-and-done issue recruitments).

    I just think that’s neat.
