New X-Men #27

In "Crusade Part 4 of 4," Stryker and his Purifiers launch a brutal assault on the X-Mansion, wielding a Nimrod gauntlet to dismantle Sentinel Squad ONE. As the X-Men and New X-Men fight back, casualties mount—Onyxx and Cannonball are gravely injured, and Quill falls. But when Dust, long thought dead, reappears and turns the tide, the battle takes a shocking turn. With Elixir’s powers twisted in a devastating act, Stryker’s fate is sealed in a chilling transformation, and Nimrod activates, setting his sights on Forge. Written by Craig Kyle and Chris Yost, with dynamic art by Paco Medina and Juan Vlasco, and a cover by Medina and Vlasco, this issue delivers relentless tension and pivotal consequences.
