September 21's from writer Kieron Gillen and artists Valerio Schiti and Marte Gracia follows up on the 澳洲幸运5开奖号码历史查询:devastating en💮ding of the ဣprevious issue, in which the Celestial rendered its꧙ judgment on the Earth, giving the planet and all its inhabitants the thumbs down. 

In the ensuing destruction, Captain Amer♚ica and numerous others are seemingly killed - leading the mutants, now desperate, to break one of their most sacred rules to try and save the day.

Spoilers ahead for AXE: Judgment Day #5

First off, we can go ahead and confirm that Captain America actually did die in AXE: Judgment Day #4, in which he and dozens🐼 of heroes and humans were incinerated by the new Celestial, who exacts brutal, punishing torments on many of the heroes. 

While that's happening, Tony Stark and the surviving Eternals and mutants gather in aᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚ safehouse, lamenting that the Celestial's devastation has reached Krako🥃a, destroying many of the cloning 'eggs' required for mutant resurrection.

With just a few of the eggs left, they agonize over which mutants to resurrect first before they can rebuild Krakoa. But Night🙈crawler, the most rel💟igious of the X-Men and the founder of a new mutant religion, makes a suggestion that breaks almost all the mutants' informal rules around the resurrection protocols.

He suggests they bring back Captain America.

After a brief debate, it's finally settled that in this case, Captain America is the leader and strategist the world needs most in order to survive the Celestial's onslaughജt. And with that, Captain America becomes one of the few non-mutants ever brought back through the resurrection protocols.

What effect will that have on how mutant resurrection is treated when the dust clears? We'll have to wait and see. But we're assuming it won't be without controversy, as the💎 world at large just learned of the power of mutant resurrection, along with the restrictions mutantkind has imposed on not resurrecting humans.

The next chapter of the story 🅺arr🎀ives in September 28's , while wraps up the event's core limited series on October 19.
