Greetings True Believers! Necrosha continues as a contingent of the X-Men battle Proteus on Muir Island. Here are a few bits. Spoilers and enjoy!

Suggested Tags: char: proteus/kevin mactaggert, char: rogue/anna marie, char: nightcrawler/kurt wagner, char: blindfold/ruth aldine, char: colossus/piotr rasputin, char: magneto/erik magnus lehnsherr, title: x-men legacy, event: necrosha, creator: mike carey, creator: clay mann



Proteus has taken over Blindfold's body and is battling the X-Men.


We flashback to 3 hours ago and start learning about Proteus and his plan.



Mags and the other Xers burst in and Proteus begins wiping the floor with them. He remembers Colossus.



Proteus has better control of his powers now.



Very Agent Smith.



Like I said, very Agent Smith.

Proteus kicks their asses up and down the island. Possessing Psylocke, Husk and Trance. Mags is his main opponent. One funny bit is that Magneto uses an unconscious Colossus as Rock'em Sock'em robot against Proteus.

Magneto declares that the final battle will be between him and Proteus.





I liked this issue, they referenced the old X-Factor/X-Force/New Warriors annual cross-over that was the last 616 appearance of Proteus. I wish that Proteus would survive Necrosha but I doubt it.

I love how he couldn't just punch her, Colossus had to go for a bitch slap.

So Maggie is a earth-bender now? And nobody has ask him or Quicksilver how they got their powers back? I know Magento cheated, but Quicksilver is restored by the power of thought (right?)

Presumably in the same way Toph is a metalbender- small amounts of manipulatable material among the rest.

They halfway asked and halfway went, "Eh, it's Magneto."

PAD's been implying that any mutant could get their power back through deep trancing. Of course, how many people do you know who are honestly capable of a deep trance?

the panel where proteus is monologuing about "multiple hosts" through nightcrawler and blindfold with rogue floating upside down-ish?

change the dialogue some on the speech balloons and you have instaPr0n! i mean, there's purple sparkly electricity arcing from Kur's CROTCH. and he's sort of got an "GRUNTING WIF PHYSICAL EFFORT" expression. and blindfold's looking kind of smug. and rogue's head is...well. that's kind of obvious.

i smell threesome. :D

(...wait, is it a threesome if you're technically inhabiting two of the participants? o_O)

Is anyone keeping tack of how many mutants are left? There's like, what, 190 now?

This looks like it may be a bit over 4 pages of a new issue. For recent comics a maximum of 4 pages is allowed to be posted per member.

Did they ever explain how Proteus managed to get out of Morph?

I think they'll just be sticking to thats an alternate Proteus at this point.

If they're not ignoring the short Parker run of Exiles (and I wouldn't be surprised if they are), then when the team that Morph/Proteus was in got placed in the crystal palace for absorption after their time was 'up', Proteus got absorbed out of Morph's body first. Given the nature of his powers, it wouldn't be too big of a stretch to assume that he was just able to pass out of the crystal palace and go looking for a new host body.

maybe the HoM Proteus and 616 Proteus are distinct even though they're technically supposed to be the same one?

That's my guess.

In this issue Psylocke says that when Proteus "died" his energy dispersed all over Muir Island, he was kinda trapped between life and death that way.

So my theory is that when Wanda created the House of M, history changed so that that never happened and Proteus left with the Exiles. And when HoM, Wanda put everything back to how it was before (with the exception of "No more mutants", Muir Island was once again saturated with Proteus' being even though he had technically left.

Magneto better take him out quickly instead of pontificating about how awesomely he intends to do so. As I recall, in his original fight with the X-Men Proteus took down Phoenix in a one-on-one fight.

I don't keep up with Xmen anymore, but Magneto is so awesome in this I might have to.
What 's the betting he would calmly sacrifice Blindfold in order to neutralise Proteus?

LOL, he started doing exactly that, by manipulating the iron in Blindfold's blood. Proteus stopped him, though.
