Astonishing X-Men #21
The X-Men crash landed in the alien planet Breakworld. In this issue the X-Men team got separated but soon after Wolverine and the mutant girl Armor rejoins the others namely Cyclops, Ms Frost, Beast and the SWORD director Agent Brand. There's a great scene where Wolverine rides a nice flying machine here. Soon after they split up again to search for the alien device that is going to destroy earth and also to search for Colossus and Kitty.
Meanwhile Colossus and Kitty both have problems of their own when the aliens security forces discovered them and they have to fight their way out. Until an alien native rescued them and bring them to a fortress in the mountains. The leader of the alien world Kruun is plotting how to destroy the X-Men and he has a new robot like assasin.
This alien robot assasin will later appear in the final pages as it ambushed the space ship Cyclops and Emma was travelling on. And the alien robot has a definitive hidden talent for retracting its body parts. But the real question is whether Cyclops is dead or just injured after crashing the ship again.
Notable scene: The SWORD agents have a mole inside the Breakworld empire.
Best action scene: The alien robot portruding arms and body in halting the ship Cyclops and Frost were in.
Best twist: Having compassion is a sin in Breakworld!
Cliffhanger: Frost asks the alien robot to kill her also. Not that easy.
