Pick of the Week: X-Men Legacy #216

For Comic Book Wednesday 9/24/2008, I choose X-Men Legacy #216 as my Pick of the Week.

X-Men Legacy #216 is written by Mike Carey and illustrated by Phil Briones and Scott Hanna. #216 is the second of a 2 parter called "Walkthrough" which is part of the ongoing "Manifest Destiny" portion of Marvel's Secret Invasion event.

This issue continues the scheme of a terrifying Emma Frost to make Professor X beg for mercy. "Walkthrough" is purely one big psychic romp of a mind f*** for Professor X, which is why it gets my Pick of the Week stamp. Emma Frost is on her most Supreme Queen of Evil mode and many facets of Professor X are explored.
