X-Infernus #2
In "This Mortal Coil," Illyana’s return to the Danger Room via Pixie’s Soul Dagger ignites a tense showdown as she fights to reclaim the artifact and the Soulsword—transforming into her Magik/Lightchilde form in the process. With her escape to Limbo, the X-Men must now mount a rescue, and Cyclops appoints Nightcrawler to lead a team of Wolverine, Pixie, Mercury, and Rockslide to follow Colossus into the mystical realm. Written by C. B. Cebulski and illustrated by Giuseppe Camuncoli with inks by Jesse Delperdang and Craig Yeung, the issue’s dynamic art and escalating stakes are perfectly framed by David Finch’s cover pencils and Danny Miki’s inks.

Illyana, summoned to the Danger Room by Pixie's use of the Soul Dagger, fights the team to get the Dagger and Sword back. When she gains the Soulsword she transforms most of the way back to her Magik/Lightchilde incarnation (armor and small horns, but human legs and no tail). After she flees back to Limbo, where she encounters Witchfire, Colossus demands that Cyclops allow him to take a team to Limbo. Cyclops names Nightcrawler the team leader, and sends Wolverine, Pixie, Mercury and Rockslide to accompany him and Colossus.
