Rated T
THE HIGH PRICE OF A NEW DAWN!
X-Force is the CIA of the mutant world-one half intelligence branch, one half special ops. Beast, Jean Grey and Sage on one side, Wolverine, Kid Omega and Domino on the other. In a perfect world, there would be no need for an X-Force. We're not there...yet.

Rated T+
Decent ending... more like an ending of an arc than an event. Without reading the tie ins other than Venom it feels like I missed a lot though. That is the biggest problem with these event tie-ins. You really have to invest in more of the other titles to get the big picture. I just don't have the funds. I'm po yo.
