Omega Red may be harboring a deadly secret, but nothing compares to the trust broken by the unexpected interrogation of one of X-Force's own! Meanwhile, Forge, Wolverine and Quentin Quire brave the terrors of the deep - and a deadly discovery reveals a dark side of Krakoa! Shaken by his recent resurrection, Quire ponders his new lease on life - but when a creature of nightmares wreaks havoc on X-Force, can he fight it on its home turf? Plus: The squad handles unwanted party crashers at the Hellfire Gala, Wolverine surfs some gnarly waves and X-Force must get to the root of the problem when Krakoa suffers an attack from a very invasive plant! Meanwhile, Beast's best-laid plans invite a threat close to the heart as the secret works of Mikhail Rasputin are at last revealed! Collecting X-FORCE (2019) #15-26 and WOLVERINE (2020) #13.
Acclaimed author and screenwriter Benjamin Percy broke into comics in 2014 with a two-issue Batman story arc for Detective Comics. He is also known for his work on Nightwing, Green Arrow and Teen Titans for DC Comics, and James Bond: Black Box for Dynamite Entertainment. Percy has written two seasons of Marvel’s Wolverine podcast series: Wolverine: The Long Night, which was listed as one of the top fifteen podcasts of the year by Apple and won the iHeart Radio Award for best scripted podcast in 2018, and Wolverine: The Lost Trail. In print, he is a key contributor to Jonathan Hickman’s Dawn of X initiative as writer of X-Force and Wolverine. Percy is taking Johnny Blaze back to basics for the character’s 50th anniversary in the pages of Ghost Rider.

Joshua Cassara made a big splash with his work on Secret Empire, as well as the tie-in Secret Empire: Uprising one-shot. He joined writer Rodney Barnes to challenge Sam Wilson as never before on Falcon, and teamed with writer Jeff Lemire and fellow artist Kim Jacinto on Sentry. His fast-growing list of Marvel credits also includes Venom, X-Force and X Lives of Wolverine.
