This is part of one of Marvel's mega-crossover projects that span all the mutant titles for a few months dealing with the topic of why did Cable shoot Prof X? And as the X-teams go scrambling about to find Cable, other villains pop up to confuse the matter including people like Apocalypse thus leaving all X-teams wondering what the heck is going on
SPOILER ALERT
Basically the prime villain is Stryfe who looks like Cable because he is the clone of Cable raised in the future and coming back to exact revenge on the past or some such nonsense but the tale is well-told and it shows how disjointed the heroes are especially in the way justice is meted out because if there is no death penalty or life imprisonment, then these characters will come back again and again to give others grief
In this chapter, which is still early, to find out the truth, X-Factor being a government sanctioned mutant strike force working with Valerie Cooper sets out to hunt down X-Force and bring them in for questioning because at this part of their convoluted timeline, X-Force has aligned themselves with Cable. Of course none knew that X-Force has kind of lost Cable in its own series a few issues earlier because by then, X-Force has walked away from the main world of X
So a fight ensues and while X-Force give it its all ... is it enough?
Some nice fight scenes but the artwork does take some getting used to though
Ratings: 6/10
