Exiles #12

In "Another Rooster in the Henhouse Part 1," the Exiles cross paths with Weapon X, a parallel team of time-jumping operatives, in a fractured future Earth. Blink reconnects with her former mentor Sabretooth from the Age of Apocalypse, while Nocturne grapples with a personal loss. Together, they battle Sentinels and rescue David Richards, a boy with extraordinary abilities—only to be told by the Tallus that their mission has just begun: Blink and Sabretooth must now kill him. Written by Judd Winick and illustrated by Mike McKone, with inks by Jon Holdredge and colors by Transparency Digital, the issue's cover by Mike McKone and Jon Holdredge captures the tension of this pivotal moment.
