Marvel Top #6
In "Fils du destin," Shard confronts her brother Bishop in a poignant attempt to rebuild their fractured bond, only to face the unsettling truth that she’s a hologram—her existence tied to a relic that now draws the attention of Operation Zero Tolerance. As the X-Folk intervene to protect her, the confrontation sparks a transformation: Shard evolves beyond her mechanical origins, becoming a self-sustaining being for the first time. Written by Howard Mackie and Terry Kavanagh, with art by David Perrin and Nick Gnazzo, and colors by Kevin Somers and Malibu Coloring, this emotional turning point is rendered with striking visuals, including Bernard Chang’s cover pencils and Jon Holdredge’s inks.
In "Fils du destin," Shard seeks a fragile reunion with her brother Bishop, whose grief over a lost sister now confronts him with a shocking truth: she’s a hologram. As their emotional bond strains under the weight of memory and identity, a Hound from Operation Zero Tolerance targets the gauntlet that sustains her—pulling the X-Folk into a chaotic intervention that forces Shard to break free, becoming something new and self-sustaining.
In "Un jour comme les autres," a rogue Sentinel—once a weapon of fear—crashes an X-Men house party, his systems failing as he lies on the lawn. Amid the lingering shadows of Onslaught and the weight of Xavier’s arrest, the team finds unexpected joy in a rare moment of carefree connection, culminating in a heartfelt, hand-in-hand gathering that feels both simple and profound.
