Issue:	X-Force Annual 2
Date:	1993
Story:	Extreme Measures (49 pages)
Feature Characters:	Cable, Cannonball, Boomer, Feral, Warpath, Shatterstar,
Siryn, Rictor, Sunspot
Regular Characters:	
Guest Stars:	X-Treme (Adam X)
Villains:	Martin Henry Strong, Dr. Emelio Licciardo
Other Characters:	Neurotap (Michelle Salters)
Credits:	Writer: Fabian Nicieza
	Pencils: Antonio Daniel
	Inks: Mark Pennington, Bob Wiacek, Keith Williams, Kevin Conrad 
	Letters: Chris Eliopoulos

	Editor: Bob Harras
	Editor-in-Chief: Tom DeFalco
Synopsis:	Strong has sent X-Treme to bring back Neurotap. Just as she is forced
to yield, X-Force comes to the rescue. He quickly cuts them all, just enough so
he can use his mutant power to make oxygenated blood fry. (Note: if your blood is
not already oxygenated, you are dead.) He runs off before the team can regroup.
	Sam and Theresa are posing as college interns in Strong's foundation. They
break into the secure lab where Feral is being kept for experimentation along
with many other mutants.
	Cable allows X-Treme to follow them, so Rictor, Warpath, and Shatterstar can
ambush him. They beat him, and then talk: he is an alien who is only working for
Strong so he will tell him about his past. He sides with X-Force.
	Neurotap tells her story: she ran away from home when her mutant power
manifested (energy pulses routed through your optic nerves) and went to work at
Strong's lab. She had an affair with X-Treme, then ran away when she realized
Strong's goal is to prevent all mutations in the future.
	Strong attacks and subdues Theresa and Sam; he is an invulnerable mutant
himself, with two hearts.
	X-Treme takes Boomer and Rictor into the lab as supposed captives. He carries
a comm-link, which allows the rest of the team to bodyslide in, and all attack
Strong and his guards. Then Neurotap shows her true colors; the whole thing was a
set-up to get more mutants for Strong. X-Treme cuts and fries her blood; then
Cable uses an ionic blade to cut Strong's skin, and X-Treme fries his blood. His
body reverts to its true state: a small, weak, webbed thing.
	X-Force lets the lab stand, so Licciardo can continue to care for the mutants
there on life-support. X-Treme chooses not to join the team.
	Note: pin-ups follow: Domino, Cable, Cable and Deadpool, X-Force

	Editor-in-Chief: Tom DeFalco
Synopsis:	The MLF attack Gyrich's home. He activates Hardaway, a cybernetic
biosentry designed to kill all mutants. Moonstar and Locus arrive and quickly
kill him (and 2 others), and take Gyrich captive.
	X-Force taps into a meeting of Cooper, Forge, Fury, and Xavier discussing the
MLF; neither the X-Men or X-Factor are in a position to do anything, so X-Force
decides to go for it.
	In Magneto's old base in the Bermuda Triangle (Uncanny 6, 148), Wildside beats
on Gyrich; Reignfire apologizes and says he wants to split mutants from humans
and create a mutant army to conquer the world.
	X-Force breaks in, and fighting ensues. They are shocked to find Dani helping
the MLF (she was a teammate until New Mutants 87, when she stayed in Asgard as a
Valkyrie); Shatterstar and Wildside are in a standoff, holding Reaper and Siryn
captive, respectively; Cable is about to spring Gyrich when Reignfire attacks
him.

	Editor: Bob Harras
	Editor-in-Chief: Tom DeFalco
Synopsis:	Cable fights Reignfire, leaving Feral to get Gyrich to safety (she'd
rather kill him, especially since he knows things about her past).
	Shatterstar breaks the stalemate with Wildside by letting him have his sword,
then humming to make it vibrate and explode, killing Reaper. This is (thankfully)
a rarely used mutant ability of his. After much fighting, Feral and Tempo switch
sides, and the MLF retreats, taking parting shots at Gyrich. Roberto is able to
fly and deflect these energies (new powers), but in doing so disappears with the
MLF, to parts unknown.

and she, drunk again, screams at him. Cable calls Domino, asking for her to

Synopsis:	Arcade wants X-Treme and Shatterstar to fight to the death, else he
will kill Windsong, who is Shatterstar's betrothed. He throws his sword at her,
revealing her to be just a hologram, and he and X-Treme go to rescue the real
Windsong (not knowing Arcade doesn't even have her). They find Arcade, and Locke
pretends to have Windsong, so Shatterstar plunges his sword into his own chest
(!). As Arcade tries to make a deal with X-Treme, a renascent Shatterstar (quick
metabolism) stabs him in the back, and he turns out to be a robot. X-Treme goes
to find Milbury, the man who hired Arcade; Shatterstar returns with Rictor to

	At camp, Tempo leaves; Domino arrives (the real one, this time). Siryn invites

Synopsis:	In Ireland, Theresa screams and drinks herself stupid in her run-down
garden, and James cleans her up and tries to convince her she has a problem.
	James gets Doneghann to try to find Black Tom, but instead he finds
Juggernaut, and they tell the Cassidy story: Tom and Sean both loved Maeve; she
chose Sean, then died while Sean was away (Interpol), leaving Theresa with Tom.
Sean blamed Tom for Maeve's death and crippled him; Tom hid Theresa from him and
raised her himself.
	Theresa talks to James: she was sent to boarding school at 12 and learned to
drink there. Tom was sent to prison (by Sean) when she was 15, and she turned her
back on him.

Then, the Tribunal attacks, trying to abduct Firestar. They are beaten back, with
help from Justice, who convinces Firestar to let him give her to Shaw.
	In Madripoor, Moonstar and Empath look for Karma. So does Blaze, but Karma
arrives and immediately takes control of her.

Synopsis:	Note: this is part 3 of Child's Play.
	While Rictor and Siryn take down Fitzroy, Warpath learns all about him from
Bantam. Cable tricks Fitzroy into trying to drain his life-force through his
metal arm, so Fitzroy's power drains himself instead and opens a portal, through
which X-Force and Paige jump.
	Justice delivers Firestar to the Gamesmaster and finds that he has linked all
his captives to him, so he cannot be attacked. The rest of the New Warriors
attack Creed and threaten to expose him as a mutant collaborator (and progeny).
He tells them the captives are being held in Shaw's Swiss chalet.
	X-Force appears in Shaw's Tokyo penthouse, where he is bathing. He likewise
directs them to his Swiss chalet.
	Karma frees herself and the other captives. She has had Sienna under control,
but the Gamesmaster overrides this and uses Sienna to attack them all.

Synopsis:	Note: this is part 4 of Child's Play.
	X-Force meets the New Warriors outside Shaw's chalet and team up. Thrash and
Cable agree on a frontal assault, knowing that the Gamesmaster will know their
plan anyway.
	He does. He uses Karma and Empath to take control of Shatterstar and Rictor,
who with Moonstar and Magma fell Nova and Kymaera. He uses Blaze to take out
Siryn, Speedball, Warpath, and Rage (Speedball extended his kinetic field to keep
them all from getting killed). He uses Firestar, Justice, Cannonball, and Boomer
to attack Cable, Domino, Thrash. But they have a few tricks, including Silhouette
melting in from the shadows, and defeat their opponents (Cable is able to
telepathically shut down Sam). 
	Paige has tagged along and finds her brother fallen in the snow. She
challenges the Gamesmaster: everyone's lives, for the chance to direct the next
generation of mutants. He agrees and his psi-image disappears; he stands in front
of his picture window and plans to challenge other mutant leaders.

arrows that scramble your brain.
	In China, Reignfire helps 3-Peace against Snake and recruits them for the MLF.
	Dani tries to calm Darkwind (her flying horse from Asgard, formerly Brightwind
but now turned black), and Bird-Brain (an Ani-mate).
	The MLF and 3-Peace attack a Chinese base near Shanghai, which has equipment
that can track mutants. Moonstar restrains Feral from unnecessary killing, but
then Reignfire kills Rabbit just as a fear tactic.
	Next they attack a mutant detention center. Reignfire betrays 3-Peace, having
made a deal with the Chinese government, but 3-Peace fights their way out, and

rose again, an External.
	Gideon was on Columbus's voyage, died of scurvy, and rose again to grab
opportunity in the New World.
	The Legacy Virus has killed Nicodemus and Burke, and Absalom is infected.

all for wasting their long lives. Absalom burst with thorns, and is near death.

say they love each other.
	In Arizona, Cable and Domino plan to relocate the team. In the Bronx, a dead
body is found and is traced to the Callasantos sisters (Feral and Thornn).
