KEY ISSUE: To me HELL YEAH it is. Juggernaut fighting Warpath. So much awesomeness here that it even spills out onto the Spider-Man series. Seriously, this is how you cross series.

Total of 20 graded at 9.8 with me owning one and eBay showing two and World Wide Comics having one also. There’s also one that has been signed and man does it look pretty. Gonna have to get this one signed maybe on the thigh or across Shatterstars feet. They are like size extra midget.
Story Title: Battle Cry
SUMMARY:
World Trade Center
Day three of the Jankos hostage situation and Siryn arrives on the roof, only to find the Juggernaut ready for a fight. Siryn attempts to attack and the Juggernaut basically knocks her off the roof. She flies to safety and is greeted by X-Force as they arrive. Cable offers X-Force's help and then the fight really begins.
Warpath leaps from the ship to hit the Juggernaut but instead they both fall over the edge toward the street below. The remaining members take out the guards on the roof. They then start their descent into the floors below.
Meanwhile, Black Tom goads both Gideon and Sunspot into fighting him. Gideon strikes first and is quickly taken out. Sunspot then steps in and while making a dent in the action, he is then beat when Black Tom uses his cane on him. The rest of X-Force enters and meets Black Tom. They prepare to fight him when he reveals that he has packed the building with plastique.
On the ground, Warpath and Juggernaut continue to battle in the streets. Spider-Man then appears and surveys the scene. He decides that he is probably better off letting Warpath fight Juggernaut alone since he is distracting him. He then starts to make his way up to the top of the World Trade Center when there is a giant explosion in the side of one of the towers...
PERSONAL COMMENTS:
A few things about this one come up. One, that is one hell of a dysfunctional family. Between Siren and her Uncle Tom… did I really write that… I guess I did, and Juggernaut taking a monster size swing at here this family has some serious issues. Another unique thing about this one is the way Liefeld draws feet… take a look at the cover and tell me nothings wrong. Funny thing is I never cared as a kid as Liefeld’s ability to splash color on the page really made me enjoy it without caring. It wasn’t until I was an adult that I even noticed it. And finally a kind of sad piece, this one took place right around the initial destruction of the World Trade Towers and eventually the second time. Makes you think about the past a little in this one.
