INVASION!
The X-Men fly to the rescue of a mutant in crisis in San Francisco. The problem? Alien invaders seem to have a similar idea. Six X-Men vs. an invading alien fleet? Sounds about right. PLUS: THE CONCLUSION OF DEADPOOL/WOLVERINE: WEAPON X-TRACTION!

RAMPAGE! Feelings are hard. ORPHAN-MAKER doesn’t like feeling that he’s not NANNY’s little boy anymore…and what more sensible, mature action is there to take than to storm the fortress of their enemies THE RIGHT in a bid to get back in her good graces?  Before the day is through, there will be some dire consequences…

This was fantastic. I feel like it's a big problem within the comics fandom where readers are so focused on the plot furthering the overall narrative that when you get a comic that is all character, they act like it's completely worthless. Stop being so lame and pointless yourselves, and maybe you'll learn to enjoy super fun issues like this.

Definitely a tie-in/filler issue for the "Hellfire Gala" event, but of the three X books released this week, this was the most entertaining and had the best art (thanks Segovia and Team). While not the most substantive of issues, it was a fun read with some character development and light-hearted moments.

This issue definitely takes some unexpected twists and turns. A good conclusion to another good Hellions arc; even if it did feel a little rushed. Mr. Sinister is pushing Psylocke to the edge and it'll be exciting to see how/when she'll finally push back.

The tension from the Sinister and Psylocke dynamic is like a game of comic book "Jenga." Every new issue is like watching another block being pulled out. Someone is gonna make the tower fall.

Excellent!!! Zeb Wells gives us an interesting (and unexpected) little twist at the end of this story arc. While Sinister might have taken a couple of "hits" from Arcade and company, in the end Sinister proves that he is the master chess player. BTW...Zeb Wells is giving us the "BAD-ASS, TAKE-NO-PRISONER, F-YOU" Psylocke that she is meant to be AND injecting her with depth and characterization. Th more

That was alot to absorb. By the end of the issue I felt like Havok.
I don't care how much fan-service there was in the drawings of Psylocke in this issue , did she really have to throw up those robots?
The antagonist being baited to do himself in was comedy, and proved Empath has a reach that extends past what limits he belives he has.
And yeah, John's save of Psylocke was cool. more

Zeb Wells continues to prove why Hellions is the best X-Men title right now. This issue features great moments with Empath, Havok and Nanny; proving this truly is a team book and not just a Kwannon book disguised as a team book. Marvel, please don't cancel this title!

The "X of Swords" event is only important to Hellions #6 because it provides explanation for the team's mission. I agree with others that it shouldn't be considered a "chapter" in the crossover. Having said that, it's still the BEST of all the the chapters so far. Sinister's ulterior motivations for the Hellions' journey has resulted in the best action of the event. I'm more interested in what's g more
