X-Men #188 - Marvel

Killer book!! Mike Carey and Chris Bachalo come on board this issue. And they cranked it up a notch already. We start out with Sabretooth on the run from somebody. Not sure who, but he's beat up pretty bad. One of the guys he meets up with thinks it's a special occasion because "I just saw fear in the eyes of the most dangerous man I ever met". Rogue, Iceman, and Cannonball are trying to rescue a mutant from a hospital. Cyclops and Emma are there too, but they're both "knocked da fuck out!!" Rogue has to improvise, so after stealing Scott and Emmas powers, she comes up with an interesting twist and saves the day. Well, at least for the X-men, not for all the people standing in her path. They find Regan Wyngarde, Lady Mastermind and someone else. They're not sure who she is until they get back to the mansion and Hank starts examining her and they find out she is Karima Shapandar, one of Bastion's Omega Sentinels. That can't be good. We see a brief glimpse of the professor. We also get a glimpse of 2 of the people chasing after Sabretooth. I'm not sure who they are though. Oh yeah, we got a glimpse of 2 more of them, kind of, when they atomize the city block where Sabretooth stopped in Mexico to get supplies. They also propogate the blame to the X-men. And finally we have Sabretooth showing up at the mansion asking for asylum. What is the world coming to? Just when you think this book can't get any better, BLAMMM!!!!!! Somebody comes along and blows you out of the water. With Mike and Chris on board, this is gonna be a killer run!! Literally!!!!!!!
