512 – You Can Get Anything You Want at Stryfe’s Restaurant

In which it’s rude to eat in a helmet; Cable does his best villain bit; Bishop is clearly unfamiliar with early X-Force; we’re pretty sure clones still count as people; and Stryfe is the surprise MVP of Gambit & Bishop: Sons of the Atom.

X-PLAINED:

  • Another time Stryfe and Bishop teamed up
  • Gambit & Bishop: Sons of the Atom #3-6
  • Some of the Witness’s fancy swag
  • An extremely awkward meal
  • Stryfe in four pages
  • Unsubtle foreshadowing
  • The relative ethics of killing Stryfe
  • A visual representation of time
  • Somewhat logical consequences
  • Bad clone ethics
  • Future uncertainty
  • Le Bête Noir
  • Hell-lord / anti-Phoenix disambiguation
  • A fancy t-shirt
  • The appropriate amount of mean to be to Stryfe
  • When Gambit and Bishop: Sons of the Atom takes place relative to The Search for Cyclops (more) (again) (inconclusive)
  • Reasons not to live under a crypt in New Orleans
  • Betty Noir’s
  • Relative (fictional) body counts
  • Business-casual Stryfe
  • Lucas Bishop, kitten guy
  • Relitigating the X-traitor
