Story Title:
When Mutants Clash !
And The Mob Cried... Vengeance !
By: Gary Friedrich
Artists: Werner Roth
Synopsis: First Story:
It’s been several hours since the Angel departed from Magneto’s fortress to alert the Avengers, and the other X-Men have been securely imprisoned in separate cells. Using his power at full force after resting for so long, Cyclops manages to blast apart the lead shield covering his eyes. As he searches the huge castle for his teammates, Cyclops is spotted by the Toad, who immediately runs off to inform Magneto. Chasing after him, Cyclops gets lost in the huge fortress, and runs into Quicksilver instead. Surprisingly, Pietro wishes to talk rather than fight, but eventually one word leads to another and they end up fighting instead. Quicksilver soon gains the upper hand due to his speed and because he manages to temporarily blind Cyclops with some graphite padding that he ripped off a machine. In another chamber, Magneto and the other Brotherhood members observe the fight on a huge magna-screen. Despite being blamed for Cyclops escape, the Toad keeps cheering and praising his master, who even goes as far as torture his lackey. The Scarlet Witch urges Magneto to stop the fight between Cyclops and her brother, but Magneto decides to just watch, thinking that in his kingdom there’ll be no place for weakling, so Quicksilver better prove his worth by winning the battle. However, Pietro is knocked out by one of Cyclops’ optic beams when it ricochets off a wall. Just as the X-Man checks on his unconscious opponent, the Avengers arrive to threaten Scott that their missing teammate, Quicksilver, is better unharmed.
Second Story:
Bobby Drake has been arrested after publicly displaying his mutant powers. Cyclops has come to bust him out of prison but, convinced that he’ll get a fair trial, Bobby refuses to come along. As there is already an angry mob gathering in the vestibule of the jail, Cyclops wants to force Bobby to come along, leading to a fight between the two mutants. Considering him to be a criminal, Bobby runs away from Cyclops and wants to turn himself back in to the authorities later. Cyclops hot on his trail, the two mutants keep fighting each other until they are both exhausted. At that point, the angry mob catches up with them and the sheriff is willing to shoot them if they don’t come along peacefully.
