This gave me a good chuckle. I hope we see more of Kobak and Solem.

Everyone at Arakko are tense since Genesis (Apocalypse's wife) came along and manipulated half of the council to her side, Storm and the remaining Arakki Council members are in the room trying to figure out what to do. Kobak Never Held and Lodus Logos are arguing until Sunspot comes into the room looking battered and disheveled. Sunspot informs Storm and the Arakki mutants about the murders at the Hellfire Gala such as Frenzy, Dazzler, Jubilee, Prodigy and mainly, his best friend, Cannonball. Sunspot claims that everyone at the Gala is dead. He also mentions Jean Grey and he believes Cyclops is dead too because the X-Treehouse is on fire. He presumes Captain America might be dead as well. However, Sunspot wasn't there and he only heard the rumors about it while he was on earth at a secret meeting. He tells her about having to resist Xavier and almost being forced through a gate. Storm realizes that this was all orchestrated by Orchis for both the downfall of Krakoa and Arakko at the same time. Xilo says Genesis has Sobunar at her side and that the people will listen to him. If they oppose Genesis it will cause a civil war. Xilo asks Storm what they should do and after a pause, she declares that they have to go to war.

Cue to battle at the Valley of the Fallen where the Arakki mutants are having a civil war. Nova the non-mutant human rocket is leading the charge, calling out war commands and maneuvers on the aerial mutants. Sunspot joins him in the air and Nova tells him that this site is the choke point of the Western front. Suddenly, in the distance, they see a new character rocketing at them, Orrdon the Omega Rocket. Nova says he'll plow through their forces like a bullet if they don't head him off, but Sunspot notices he's flying over Isca's territory. Orrdon boasts he's "fully invulnerable while blasting" until he gets an unexpected arrow up into his mouth and out the top of his head. Isca, holding her bow, watches him continue to rocket out of sight and he plummets to his death. When Nova and Sunspot get surrounded by Genesis' aerial Arakki mutants, Storm comes in to blow them away before summoning her lightning to strike at the statues of Genesis and Apocalypse to block more of Genesis' army from coming through.

Bei The Blood Moon best lines Part 2

These deal with Bei's actions and feelings in the final days and aftermath of the Genesis War.

Lots of friends lost.

The battle expressed poetically as only Bei does.

Roberto was concerned that she was taking too much upon herself, but Bei was not dealing with Doug's getting snatched up by Krakoa very well.

Information we knew, but it's a pretty rad stylisation of how Bei sees it. Krakoa's 'facial' expressions are hard to read but I think they look a bit cruel here.

Of course.

Awww. Pretty sure we're switching into Berto's viewpoint here with the visuals, or maybe they're both tight with the New Mutants. Either way it's nice to see them.

She asks if Arakko is observing the Blood Dawn this year. Kobak Never-Held has his perspective on it.

Bei has a more romantic explanation.

In what I believe is a moment of closeness, she sticks a knife in Sunspot's face and asks him if he's down.

Room for one more picture, so here's her impromptu wedding vows. I really wish we got to see Bei interact with Magneto, Exodus and Storm. Her sense of poetry and drama is legendary. A true romantic!

Top 10 Sexiest Mutants

but I'm gay so it's only the guys

Honorable Mention: Kobak Never-Held

I'm not really into porcupines or whatever he's supposed to be, but he has a nice ass and that's all that really matters.

#10: That one Betsy Braddock variant who has a beard

Okay I know this one's kind of a stretch but I always get excited to see this guy in the background when the Captain Britain corps shows up. If Betsy is a mutant her variants would be too, right? So this counts?

#9: Wolverine (Logan Howlett)

Pretty basic, I know, but he's popular for a reason and that reason is that he's sexy.

#8: Forge

Mustache <3

#7: Sabretooth

I'm pretty sure he was my first crush as a kid lol. And as stupid as it looks the Corsair cosplay here is really doing it for me somehow.

#6: Manifold

I'm usually not into yellow for clothing but he manages to make it look good, and I love a character who has a signature color.

#5: Nightcrawler (with the horns, from Legion of X)

He's a sexy little demon man :)

#3 (tie): Magneto & Fisher King

I'm not the only one who kind of ships them, right? Like, there's something there.

#2: Jon Ironfire (as seen in Sins of Sinister)

It's a shame this version of him is from a timeline that no longer exists, because he's sooooo cool. He's got sick horns and a huge beard and he's missing an eye and he can turn his blood into metal, like come on.

#1: Colossus (in his 2022 Hellfire Gala outfit)

Obviously. I'm still mad they came up with this amazing design and then he was in the background of like 3 panels throughout the entire event and that was it.

X-Men Red #14

[heckcareoxytwit]

Sunspot (Roberto Da Costa), Nova (Richard Rider) and Kobak the Porcupine mutant guy share their steamy but relaxing moment in the hot springs of Arakko until they get interrupted by something ominous.

Also...

"New Mutants VS New Warriors" in soccer or any sports match? Please make it happen, Marvel! I can take hero vs hero in sports game instead of hero vs hero fights.
