“Countdown to a Miscount”

In "Countdown to a Miscount," Dan Slott and Paul Pelletier deliver a pivotal chapter where Mr. Immortal confronts his unexpected cosmic significance, leading to a showdown with Maelstrom that ends in tragedy—Doorman's death marks his grim ascension as Deathurge’s successor to Oblivion’s service. With the real Avengers demanding they abandon their name, the Great Lakes Avengers reinvent themselves as the Great Lakes X-Men (GLX), setting a bold new course. The issue’s dynamic art by Pelletier, inked by Magyar and colored by Quintana, captures the stakes with precision, while the cover by Pelletier and Magyar perfectly frames the team’s transformation.
