Uncanny X-Men No. 178

From last issue Kitty and Peter get ambushed by the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. A combination Pyro-Avalanche attack that just might have killed Colossus. Kitty very wisely resorts to the Professor X psychic hotline.

In the Danger Room both Storm and Wolverine display how fast they are.

Kitty has another idea.

Not only does she intend to contact Reed. She's going to bring the FF into the fight. Brilliant.

Oops.

Finished with Kitty and Colossus, the Brotherhood go for Nightcrawler. First to attack is Pyro.

Avalanche.

Nightcrawler teleports out of this too.

Wow. Amanda in action.

So who gets the better of Nightcrawler and Amanda? The Blob.

Storm and Wolverine arrive just in time. The Blob demonstrates his strength . . .

Meanwhile, Kitty infiltrates the Baxter Building in search of a device that could help Colossus.

Back to the fight. Nightcrawler taking on Avalanche.

Back to Kitty at the Baxter.

Yes, I would have loved to have seen Kitty as Mister Fantastic's apprentice. Considering who Reed is, the fact that Kitty can think of something like that shows just how confident she is in her intelligence - most scientists would be intimidated to work besides the awesome Reed Richards. Aside from these thoughts Kitty also finds (and steals!) the gadget she needs, it is conveniently portable.

Leave it to Nightcrawler to have the creativity to use his teleporting power offensively. Here he uses Avalanches' power on the Blob.

This places the Blob in a very vulnerable position.

The Brotherhood goes down but the Blob has some chilling information.

Back at the Mansion.

Thank God it wasn't the real Rogue - it was Mystique!

All this so that Mystique can have her daughter back but Rogue enlightens her.

Mystique uses the Professor to free the Brotherhood.

Back at the Baxter. What the heck?!
