#35

Synopsis

The X-Men finally confront Kaga, the villain who has been reanimating their dead friends and foes and weaponizing them to attack. He turns out to be a bitter old man who hates the X-Men for being attractive and powerful while his own mutation has left him ugly and feeble. After he concedes defeat, Wolverine horrifies his teammates by punching the old guy in the face to keep him from activating his "Wheelchair of Death."
