Die-Cut #2
In "Don't Hurt My ID-Sister!", writer Glenn Dakin and artist Paul Scott deliver a wild, offbeat twist on mutant mayhem, as the flesh-craving X-Beast—born from the twisted fusion of Hank McCoy and Mr. Veneer—finds himself stranded on the secret island of Cyclaedea with the Manmaker crew. When the island’s mystical guardian, Id-Sister, ascends to godhood too soon and spirals into chaos, Die-Cut must tap into her unstable power to stop her before she destroys everything. The cover by Sophie Heath captures the surreal tension, while Pat Prentice’s lettering keeps the pace tight in this 1993 Marvel UK standout.

The flesh craving X-Beast has been formed from the genetics of Hank McCoy and Mr. Veneer and his Manmaker soldiers have a hard time controlling their new creation. Once X-Beast settles down, Veneer takes Die-Cut, X-Beast and the whole Manmaker crew to the secret island paradise of Cyclaedea. There is trouble in paradise, however, as the crew are attacked by Id-Sister who has achieved godhood too early and finds it is driving her crazy. Die-Cut is able to leech off some of her mystic energy and put a stop to her rampage. X-Beast and M'Lish capture Die-Cut and prepare to experiment on him.
