Mystique fantasizes about killing her son (the aforementioned Creed). Beast and Cyclops are on a transatlantic flight (tailing J. Jonah Jameson no less) when Havok rips the top off of the plane and dukes it out with his brother. Bastion kills a Bugle reporter who has uncovered the secret of Creed's parentage.
