X-Force #1

"Angels and Demons: Part 1 of 6" kicks off a high-stakes mission in X-Force #1 (2008), where Cyclops recruits Wolverine to rebuild the team after the Purifiers steal a dangerous artifact from SHIELD. With Wolverine reluctant but the squad—Warpath, X-23, and Rahne—already in motion, the hunt begins, only to end in a tense standoff when Matthew Risman captures Rahne and forces X-Force to choose between surrender and bloodshed. Clayton Crain’s dynamic art brings every brutal edge and shadowed tension to life, from the team’s grim resolve to the chilling moment when Risman raises his weapon.
