X-Force team up with The Amazing X-Men for the final push against the heir of Apocalypse, in a battle Royale that will force Wolverine to make the hardest choice of his life. One world must die!

X-Force/Uncanny X-Force is , has been , and I think will continue to be one of the greatest books being published right now. From issue # 1 this title has not disappointed in even one issue. Wolverine's for real! All the characters are great. The interaction between them is entertaining, the writing and dialog is always cutting edge and the art-Marvel always get a great artist for this book- is wonderful. Arch-Angel going off is the storyline being developed right now, so this is no surprise, but it's gonna be a great ride reading it! And I hope Nightcrawler decides to join X-Force back to their dimension so the 'elf' will be back in the X-Men's world.

@0sagemode0 they r using age of apocalypse I believe, so it's going to be the killing non Christian sword wielding kind, it makes sence now with them showing who has to b holocaust, if so then age of apocalypse is no longervan at universe but a close reality for 616 .

@osagemode-Yes.Bastion put his hand through his chest. Nightcrawler sacrificed his life to save Hope, Cable's little red-headed charge.Very sad.But his doppelganger is in the AOA, were X-Force is now trying to find a life seed to save Warren from becoming the new Apocalypse. If your not getting this book: Get it!!! It's great!

That was not a bad read. I do not read X-men but that was interesting. Too bad if they make it into a movie every character would be changed.

Hell yeah! Me too! I will never get rid of my X-men cards. And they are just stunning pieces of art. I think that's why I like them so much.

This was the problem with his story in deadpool 900, near impossible to understand remender's dialogue sometimes

@ dmm5

short story: Apocalypse kidnapped Angel, ripped his feather wings out and replaced them with the metal wings. He also brainwashed him, so he's constantly fighting an evil side. He did it to make him the Horseman Death.

Corndog: I thought I remembered it a little differently- Angel's wings had gotten shattered during the Mutant Massacre and would require amputation. Warren attempted suicide and was believed to be dead. Apocalypse had come to him and offered to restore his wings- for a price. Somehow the brainwashing and conversion into a Horsemen wasn't mentioned. Ah, this is why should always read the fine print! I could swear I remember it more that Angel voluntarily went with Apocalypse, agreeing to serve him in return for new wings. Am I wrong about this?

This looks like a really interesting storyline. Hope they do a TPB since I don't have the cash on hand to afford the books.
