X of Swords: Creation #1 Spoiler Thread: "That is not a nice woman"

[Havok83]

UGH my other thread was closed as I was writing this recap. Here it goes again people



There was so much going on that I cant do this justice giving it a proper recap but Im creating the space to discuss it spoilers and all.

This was a GOOD issue. 10/10 and a great way to start the crossover

ETA: Here is a very abbreviated recap

The 4 horseman are about to wage war and in the watchtower a squire is given something to transport to Saturnyne. He is attacked as he flies off but makes it to the Starlight Citadel and mentions that Arakko has fallen.. Saturnyne later looks at her cards (same scenes from the FCBD issue)

On Krakoa, at the external gate, the Summoner comes through with an injured Banshee thats dying. He is taing to the Healing Gardens by Rachel, Magma and Rockslide as the Heatler works on him. Apocalypse brings Summoner before the Council to tell them of the threat. The Council says the Gate should be destroyed since its on all the time and not limited to mutants. Krakoa votes no bc the mutants are but guests here. He is the land. Magneto informs Apocalypse that whatever he is planning is w/o the Council's blessing and A says he will get volunteers

At the External Gate, the team of X-men consist of Havok, Polaris, Rockslide, Siryn, Rictor, Monet, Beast and Archangel. They prepare to go through. A and Warren have a talk. Warren doesnt trust him but A is pleased to see him in his Death form. In otherworld, they see tons of troops and Unus as a prisoner. A sees his children. He approaches War whom tells him what they had wasnt love nad stabs him. Siryn screams

At the HG, Rachel is joined by Cable and they join forces to go into Banshee's head to find out what happened. They see Summoner meeting with the Horseman and realizes he betrayed them. Saturnyne stops the two and tells them they are looking for the wrong thing. Rachel sends Cable to find Scott and Jean whies she goes back into Banshee's head. Back at the Summer House, Cable opens his mind up to Jean and Scott. Scott knows what they are looking for and where to find it. On Earth they find an energy core and Cable's sword is a source to get it started



There is a war on Otherworld and Summoner reveals his true colors and cuts Rockslide in half. Monet uses her TP to go in on Saturnyne who dismisses her. Lorna uses her power on the Citadel and ready to pull it out of the sky but Saturnyne blasts everyone back. Monet is frozen in place as she tries to punch her. Saturnyne reveals her plans and its to summon Arakko champions to duel champions of Otherworld. The Krakoans will fight for her using the 10 swords. In 3 days, the champions will gather and fight



Final shot is of S.W.O.R.D.
