Owner's Description
X-Men Divided, Part Five
By: Ed Brubaker
Artists: Mike Choi & Ben Oliver
Synopsis: In San Francisco, Cyclops and Emma Frost take on Iceman, Warpath, Angel and Hepzibah, all four acting under the full control of Mastermind/Martinique, the mutant mistress of illusions, who has warped the entire city in a “hippie,” late 1960s version of itself. After Emma telepathically detects Martinique’s lair, the villainess flees and the citywide illusion begins fading, with everything reassuming its true form. In the ensuing commotion, Angel, now snapping back into reality like everyone, rescues the mayor of the city from being ran over by a car. The mayor subsequently invites the team to come and build their new home in San Francisco – considering that the city has rejected the Initiative. Meanwhile, in the Red Room facility in Russia, Colossus, Wolverine and Nightcrawler take turns fighting the Omega Red. Eventually, Kurt manages to render the villain unconscious in a rather ingenious way. After the S.H.I.E.L.D. arrives to apprehend Omega Red, Wolverine is contacted by Cyclops, who urges the three X-Men to get to San Fran, as a new era dawns for the team. Unbeknownst to everyone, in the outskirts of San Francisco, Mastermind is approached by a mysterious woman who recruits her in her Sisterhood of Mutants.
