Uncanny X-Force: Final Execution – Book 2 Premiere HC [2012]

      

      

UNCANNY X-FORCE: FINAL EXECUTION BOOK 2 PREMIERE HARDCOVER
The new Brotherhood of Evil Mutants kidnapped Evan and plans to unleash his powers to become Apocalypse. X-Force returns back from the future and heads to Genosha to stop the Brotherhood and rescue Evan before he becomes Apocalypse. However X-Force is betrayed by the AOA Nightcrawler who wants to kill the Blob for murdering his family.

The second arc is extremely disappointing as Rick Remender prepares for his Uncanny Avengers and Captain America runs. The resolution is very quick between X-Force and the Brotherhood as the writer prepares for his final issue.
