I can’t tell you how close I was to dropping this series. Thankfully, this is the end of the Shadow King story.

Illyana decides to get everything over and done with.

The Shadow King swaps bodies to take control of a different host.

Next: Nightwing #4.

And so this saga of a villain with an obsession with Storm and a fondness for using mind-control on people comes to an end!
Up next: New Mutants Special, where a villain has an obsession with Storm and uses mind-control on her!
... wait.


(meanwhile just gonna breeze right past the detail of how Xuan has spent months being horrifically violated in just about every possible fashion, because hey, who wants to dwell on that?
Especially with her backstory.
It'd bum people out.)


But hey, triumphant moment for her!
Only slightly undermined by the fact that for the remainder of 'mont's run, for all the effort her friends made to save her, she sure does sweet FA most of the time.
