X-Men Civil War #4 - Marvel


It appears that the whole reason behind this mini-series was to get Bishop alligned with the O.N.E.. Much in the way that he was with the X.S.E.. It's all altruistic right now, but you just know that there's going to be some point that's he going to have to cross some line, and he'll become a mutant hunter again. After last issue the battle has come to a halt, first because Micromax has been seriously hurt, and also because it was found out that Gnrl. Lazer has been manipulating everyone. And now, he has set the arsenal of weapons buried deep in the bunker to explode, and he has locked the 198 in. So, everyone is trying to make a concerted effort the break down the bunker door, and get the people, mutants, to safety. While they're all trying to bulldoze their way in, Valerie is back at the base, trying to persuade the information out of Gnrl. Lazer. Well, as much persuation as she can accomplish with a crowbar. But, the joke is one Lazer as he is betrayed by the doll man. He touched him, so he makes a likeness of him and twist his head around. Eventually with the combined power of Cyclops, Bishop, Iron Man and Ms. Marvel, they blast the door open. In the after math of the mellee, Valerie debriefs Bishop. She lets him know that some changes are going to be made in the way that the mutants are handled. Most of the changes are actually to the benefit of the mutants. And that is when she offers him the job. If nothing else, the X-men are constantly changing. It'll be interesting to see where they go from here.
