Okay, okay. Archie doesn't face off against Marvel's Natalia Romanov in this one. Instead, while on a scouting mission at a rival school, he faces temptation from someone else by that moniker. Has our hashtag-haired hero met his match?

Something has slithered into a gap in the mutant community. This evil thing has identified that if you are part of a society that has no limits then you also have no direction. Look, there's a whole heap of anthropological and sociological stuff that I could bore you with here, to hint at the big picture and foreshadow some of the fears and doubts Nightcrawler is sensing on the horizon, but this is comics! So, luckily for us, all this high-falutin’ stuff takes a very familiar, and utterly terrifying, form. It’s an individual who is lurking in the shadows, exacerbating the risks that arise when you have a society without any rudder or anchor. Especially when that society is made up of people with superpowers. It’s the sociological equivalent of a nuke, and this thing, this threat, has its finger on the button.
