New Excalibur #14 - Marvel


This is part 2 of a 3 part story. Cain has been losing his power, because he trying to be on the side of angels. Well, unfortunately, that's not what his power is all about. So he's gone to Korea, specifically to the temple of Cyttorak, to retake the gem and get his power back. Obviously it's not going to be that simple. Cyttorak wants him to earn it. And to piss him off, he let's Cain know that he wasn't even the first choice for the Juggernaut power. It was Xavier. That'll probably get his blood boiling. Anyways, the rest of the team is hot on his trail, but as they enter the woods around the temple, they're all taken over by a form of bloodlust. They're all bickering and snipping at each other. And while they all have legitimate points, they're taking it way. . . . way . . . . overboard. I like the team that they've assembled for this book. It's a great cast of characters. Also Frank Tieri and Jim Calafiore do a fantastic job on the creative side. I hope that this incarnation sticks around as long as the first one.
