X-Men: Psylocke #[nn]

In "Kill Matsu'o Chapter One," Psylocke returns to Japan with Wolverine, drawn by a personal reckoning and the haunting memory of her past. When the Hand, led by their master Matsu'o Tsurayaba, desecrate her old body's grave, Psylocke sets her sights on a long-overdue reckoning—making it clear that Matsu'o's time has come.

In "Kill Matsu'o Chapter Two," Psylocke ventures deep into Japan to track down Matsuo Tsurayaba, only to find Yukio already waiting at his base—sent by Wolverine. After a tense confrontation that ends in a fight, Psylocke faces a stranger claiming to want Matsuo dead, but the real threat comes when the enigmatic Jinn unleashes explosive force, reducing the compound to rubble.

In "Kill Matsu'o Chapter Three," Psylocke faces off against Jinn in a brutal contest of wills, each seeking the right to end Matsuo Tsurayaba’s life. With the villain now a broken, disfigured man begging for release, Wolverine arrives—his presence a grim reminder of the years of torment he’s inflicted on Matsuo in the wake of Mariko Yashida’s death—and refuses to let Psylocke deliver the final blow, insisting the man’s suffering isn’t finished.

In "Kill Matsu'o Chapter Four," Psylocke and Wolverine clash not with claws or bullets, but with wills, each driven by a different kind of vengeance. With Matsuo Tsurayaba at their mercy, one seeks his suffering, the other his death—until the psychic edge of Psylocke proves too sharp to resist.

In "null," Psylocke is manipulated by the Mandarin into becoming an assassin, her mind warped through a surreal journey orchestrated by Mojo. Trapped in a nightmarish vision, she confronts a twisted version of her past—her fellow X-Men, her identity, and the very fabric of her reality—while the shadowy forces of The Hand and the dreamlike tyranny of the Genoshan Magistrates loom ever closer.

In "Broken Chains," Psylocke attempts to reprogram Wolverine to serve The Hand, but her own mental conditioning begins to fracture under the strain. As the line between loyalty and control blurs, the heroes prepare to return home, while Forge takes his place among the Muir Island X-Men.
