Synopsis:
The Inner Circle of the Hellfire Club has shackled the X-Men but kept them alive, presumably to later use them as guinea pigs. Cyclops tries to snap Jean Grey out of her role as Black Queen by telepathically reaching her through the newly created rapport between them. However, impossibly, Mastermind is aware of this, co-opts the rapport and kills Cyclops on the astral plane, as a result of which the X-Men’s leader collapses in reality. Wolverine, in the meantime, attacks and badly injures several Hellfire Club mercenaries. Trying to find a way to his captured teammates, he eventually runs into several Club servants, who attack him with clubs while he is loath to harm them. On Muir Isle, Moira fears for Jean, as the latest tests show that Phoenix is now tapping into nigh-limitless power levels. Xavier, in the meantime, admits his mistakes in leadership to Angel.
Notes:
The mercenaries Wolverine carves up in this story will later be turned into cyborgs by Pierce and bear a great hatred for Wolverine, whom they blame for their condition.
