The Uncanny X-Men #349

Nov 1997 · Marvel · 1.99 USD; 2.80 CAD
“The Crawl”

In "The Crawl," Psylocke and Archangel clash with Maggott in the heart of New York, while Joseph escapes captivity in an Arctic volcano, his growing fury echoing the voice of Magneto. As Nanny closes in on the powerless X-Men, it’s Trish Tilby’s courage that shifts the tide, and Gambit makes a surprising choice—turning himself in to bounty hunters Spat and Grovel, seeking redemption. Written by Scott Lobdell and illustrated by Chris Bachalo, with vibrant colors by Digital Chameleon and Dan Brown, and a striking cover by Jeff Matsuda and Jon Sibal, this 1997 issue delivers high-stakes action and emotional weight.

In New York, Psylocke and Archangel meet and battle Maggott. In an underground Arctic volcano, Joseph breaks free from Nanny's captivity and attempts to rescue his fellow X-Men. He begins to sound very Magneto like as he gives in to his frustration and anger. Nanny catches up to the powerless X-Men and enters battle mode. It is everyday human Trish Tilby who turns the tide and takes Nanny out. Finally willing to atone for his mysterious past crimes, Gambit turns himself over to bounty hunters Spat and Grovel to be taken for judgment.
