This was already one of my favorite books. But now, with Chris Claremont writing it, and Paul Pelletier back on the pencils, it is definitely at the top of my stack. This book is awesome. I hope Chris sticks around for a while, because I would love to see the influence he has on this team in the long run. Anyways, last issue, Sabretooth returned from their mission, severely beaten up and asking for help. Heather responded by obtaining Betsy Braddock, Psylock, I think, from our earth. She came in in the Desert, and Creed went out to get her. Unfortunately, she's not a very trusting soul, and being yanked to a weird place, and greeted by Sabretooth, did not put her in good spirits. In fact she proceeds to beat the crap out of him. In the struggle they actually break through the wall of the Crystal palace. After calming her down, and explaining the situation, Creed, Betsy and Morph head of to the world of their mission, to help their teammates out. We find out that HYDRA has captured Spider-man and Longshot, already converting him, and are in the process of subduing Blink. Also Lady HYDRA is none other than Susan Richards. When our team arrives, they are greeted by Captain America, and a squadron of HYDRA ninjas following his lead. Fortunately Elektra shows up and take them back to the base of their Free Earth movement. There they fine Nick Fury, Callisto and Reed Richards. Reed is trying to explain things to them, while Creed is talking to Heather, by way of Tallus. They have 100 hours to complete their mission, or else the entire dimension will be erased. "To preserve the sanctity of crosstime . . . Reed Richards must die!" Not to tall of an order, is it? Fantastic book. And now I think it's only going to get better.
