☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "Octoplex," Sister Phoenix of the X-Priests breaks free from her sect's rigid control, eager to embrace a life of indulgence. When the X-Priests attempt to reclaim her and ultimately fail, they plot her demise in a twist that sets her on a dangerous new path. Written by John Byrne, Chris Claremont, and Jim Owsley, with art by Byrne and inks by Terry Austin, this 1982 issue features a striking cover by Steve Mellor.
In this satirical twist on superhero tropes from *Crazy Magazine* #88, Sister Phoenix of the X-Priests decides she’s had enough of religious austerity and is ready to live a life of sin—complete with all the indulgences the world has to offer. When the X-Priests try to rein her in and fail, they resort to drastic measures, setting up a dramatic end to her rebellion. Written with sharp wit and a playful edge, this 11-page parody skewers both religious dogma and superhero melodrama with a tongue-in-cheek flair.
