"The Swordbearers of Arakko aren't messing around," the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:writer explains. "They're more than worthy op🐎ponents, and you're going to see some of your favorite mutants up against the ropes."

"X-Force is an institution of violence but also bureaucrac💖y. It's made for saner, more stable times than these. Everything is on pause—when it comes to the standard machinations of Krakoa—because we're talking about a bridging and warring of worlds,"♏ Percy continues.

"The ♐swordbearers are the o𒉰nes who take center stage. It's up to them to defend not just the mutant nation, but Earth. All the X-men teams are on hold, in other words, merged and replaced by one team: those who must fight for the fate of mutantkind."

Here's a gallery of pages and covers.

X-Force #14 goes on sale on November 18.
