The Uncanny X-Men '96 #[nn]

In "Destiny's Child," Shard seeks reconciliation with her estranged brother Bishop, only to confront the unsettling truth that his late sister is a hologram—while a Hound from Operation Zero Tolerance targets the gauntlet that sustains her. As the X-Men intervene in the escalating chaos, Shard undergoes a startling transformation, emerging as a self-sustaining being unbound by technology. Written by Howard Mackie and Terry Kavanagh, with art by David Perrin and Nick Gnazzo, and a cover by Ian Churchill and Art Thibert, this 1996 issue blends emotional depth with high-stakes action.
