Hellions (2020) #7 – All of Sinister’s schemes dissected | This Week in X

by

It’s This Week in X for Hellions (2020) #7, released 2 December 2020!

We’re taking a slightly different approach to This Week in X this week – each issue gets its own video, released one per day.

Hellions (2020) #7 is another twisted delight from Zeb Wells as we see the ramifications of the full team wipe from last issue – and, especially, the results of dying in Amenth. What unstable resurrection spurs Sinister’s next mission for the team? And, what is the surprising reveal that makes Fallen Angels relevant again?

We’re intrigued with Sinister’s schemes and how they affect the newly “honed” team. (Honed how, exactly?) Plus, Mr. Sinister has… fans (😯) in Psylocke (πŸ€”) and Clive (πŸ˜‚), and we see a familiar face at the end!

Join Peter, Tyler, and Fariha’s specially-nominated guest New Mutant, Harry, for this dissection (with a special guest appearance from our wayward mutant sister, Fariha).

by

Join Peter, Tyler, and Fariha as we dissect the fourth week of the 22-chapter X of Swords crossover in three issues – Hellions (2020) #5, New Mutants (2019) #13, and Cable (2020) #5.

In this episode we fawn over Sinister’s plumage, discuss Krakoa’s decadent phase, talk about violence as language, ponder if Cyclops & Jean are acting weirder than their normal Dawn of X selves, and more!
