A thing about supervillain teams is they’re often found family. Think about the Frightful Four, always scrappin’ and squabbling, but in the end they come together to defeat those pesky heroes in the Fantastic Four.
Or the original Brotherhood of Evil Mutants. The way Magneto talked to Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch, you’d think they were actually related!
And the Sinister Six, gosh, if I had a nickel for every time we read about them sharing a beer at the Bar with No Name after a long day of beating the crap out of Spider-Man, or playing softball on the lawn of Castle Doom, well, I’d have multiple nickels because that trope is TIRED.
Anyway, families fight, and the Santo Marco Six are no different. Watch them go at each other in our EXCLUSIVE preview of X-Men #18, out next week, and keep scrolling for the basic deets.
