The Cuckoos’ plot revealed in our EXCLUSIVE preview of NYX #5

OK, let me see if I’ve got this straight:

Sophie is the one currently starring apart from her sisters in NYX but who is still very much in on their current plot alongside Hellion and Empath.

Esme is the one who went nuts on Kick and appeared to be in love with Magneto … or Xorn? Xorneto? Y’know what, pass. Later, she dated Kid Cable, which is a vast improvement.

Mindee is the one who also goes by Irma because Grant Morrison wanted the girls’ initials to spell out SPICE, much like the Phoenix Five’s initials spell out PENIS.

Phoebe is the one who died her hair red that one time and dated Quentin Quire on Krakoa.

And Celeste is also there.

OK, cool. I’m an expert now.

They’ve been fired, arrested, thrown out, beaten and betrayed: NYC is putting MS. MARVEL, WOLVERINE, ANOLE, PRODIGY and SOPHIE CUCKOO through the wringer. But there’s no time to rest: A riot’s brewing where the machinations of THE QUIET COUNCIL and the hatred of the TRUTHSEEKERS will come to an electric collision – for the fate of every mutant in the city!
