Ok, how is this Operation Desert Storm bloodbath going to end? First, you’ll be relieved to know that Crimson Commando didn’t get his legs blown off, despite what the coloring in the first panel here would have you believe: He’s practically fucking dead though, and he did indeed have half his face blown clean off, and the hesitation in Avalanche’s demeanor to possibly give a shit is absolutely delicious, so there’s still that. Next, the Blob and Pyro get desperate and start straight up murdering bitches, proven here when Veil gets incinerated in just about the most brutal fashion possible. “Barbequed.” “Babe.” JFC. Avalanche manages to get Crimson Commando to the extraction point and then ruthlessly makes the decision to leave everyone else behind.And he doesn’t sugar coat it at all because … they aren’t worth it. “Hey sorry guys! We’re going to fuck off on out of here! Maybe try the embassy! Or the underground resistance? I dunno. Good luck!” And that’s how this story ends. With Crimson Commando’s face falling off, Avalanche fist fucking his teammates, and the Blob and Pyro getting captured as prisoners of war. You gotta be shitting me! What happens after this!! Do the Blob and Pyro get waterboarded?? Guys, one time in college a friend got his car stuck on the highway during a really bad snow storm and a bunch of us went out to help him but we couldn’t all fit in the car headed out there and one guy who was with us who really didn’t want to go in the first place was like “shit I guess there’s no room, well anyway, I’ll take a roast beef and a curly fry from Arbys.” That’s what this is like! Except they’re in Iraq and they’re probably going to be executed!! What was the point of this story?? Do they follow up on this? I’ll be watching for it. (X-Factor Annual #6 – 1991) -- source link
