Lots of things going on this issue, the opening chapter to "Mercury Falling". Hank is trying to help Hellion come to terms with his powers. Laura, X-23, seems to be infatuated with Julian. Or maybe it just has something to do with him saving her life. Cessily, Mercury, comes to her rescue also, when Emma has a "tough love" conversation, that neither Laura of Cessily are comfortable with. There's also a group that's after one of the group. They seem to be a merc type of group. We see them assessing how to handle each member of the team. Kimura, from X-23 is also part of the group. And they have a member of the "198", Mammomax, that they're running tests on. Cessily and Laura go off to have a girl talk. And David and Nori have a heart to heart with Scott. He's really impressed that they were able to take care of Nimrod. Well the girls down time, at the coffee shop, is interrupted by the group that's after them. The real shock though is that they're not after X-23. They're after Mercury. Should've known that with the name of the storyline. But, I was still surprised. Craig Kyle and Chris Yost are really doing a great job with all of these characters. As much as we all love Chris Claremont, I really wouldn't want anyone on this X-book beside the current team. They're really doing something here.
