It is middling much guarantee that even the Shi’ar have never see anything like this before .
Despite Sunspot ’s stellar leadership , theNew Mutantscan not seem to get on the same Thomas Nelson Page as their Shi’ar allies - At least , they should be allies given Sam ’s affiliation with the superguardians and the fact thatthe unexampled Empress , Xandra , is the girl of Charles Xavier . However , due to a few mistake , the Shi’ar have not only sentenced New Mutants to a lifelong prison full term but alsosent the notorious Death Commandos after them .

Actually , it will all come down to a axial motion of the dice - and not even by one of the comics ' characters .
