X-Force by Benjamin Percy Vol. 2

＂The threats to mutantkind’s island paradise grow ever more plentiful--and ever more deadly. As Krakoa is targeted by enemies from outside, from within and even from below, X-Force must evolve its methods to match--and Hank McCoy is full of ideas. The notorious villain Omega Red may be harboring a malignant secret, but the shocking interrogation of one of X-Force’s own may cause far more damage! Meanwhile, Wolverine comes face-to-massive-face with a terror of the deep--and a nightmarish entity wreaks havoc, testing Quentin Quire to his Omega-level limits. Then, when a very invasive plant attacks Krakoa, X-Force must get to the root of the problem. And that’s not the only thing burrowing its way somewhere it shouldn’t.＂--back of cover.
