Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends!

Iceman and Firastar:

Spider-Man and his Amazing Friends!

The test is mrer, Firestar,

and you failed.

You must be prepared

for anything to happen.

IHE-IE RENEE room

the threats are just holograms,

3D movies,

[hymn

but if that had been real life,

you would no longer eJ-cist.

I'm sorry, Professor.

You guessed it. We're in the secret

training headquarters

of the world-famous X-Men.

Each was born

with a marvellous super-power;

just like Firestar and Iceman.

It's OK, Firestar.

Remember the time Cerebre

put me in a live volcano?

WEE! happened?

I sorl: of panicked.

We were picking ice cubes

out of the circuits for weeks.

Boy, when you X-Mon train,

you don't: kid around.

We canfi: afford to, Spider-Man.

Please place your right hand on

sensor plate for bio-rhythm ID scan.

ill*gal.

Che-er up, Angelica.

I guess I'm still annoyed

at failing my test.

Looked like a tough test to me.

You know, I'd like to take a crack

at that danger ro-orn.

That can be arranged, Spider-Man.

'Ii-fell, I No

Well, sure.

You'll be sorry.

The room's set on danger laurel one.

The images and threats

are holograms, but they'll seem real.

- I hope Spideg/'s up to this.

- That's our boy.

The object is to reach that door,

starting now.

Cerebro doesn't waste any time.

Come on, Syfldwifou can do 'It.

I smell ozone.

Holograms don't: smell.

A heat-seeking m*ssile.

And me M111 such a warm personality.

Something .

Professor,

I don't care what Corebro says.

That's danger laurel seven.

Those taps are real.

Astonishing ..

Maybe he'll respond to this.

L'f this is a best,

I'd hate to see the real thing.

I think this is the real thing.

Let's get out of here.

- What went wrong?

- Precisely what I've asked Cerebro.

Greefings, X-Men. I am Cyberied.

I bust you've enjoyed

this example of my abilities.

I've interfaced myself with Cevebre.

All of your security taps

and devices are under my command.

Impossible. Who are you?

Why are you doing this?

Only one among you knows, Professor,

but all of you will sufier.

He's protecting himself

M111 a mental shield.

I was able to pinpoint his location.

He's tapped into the logic circuits.

All the way up in the attic?

Yes, within the sub-basement.

That means wdve got to go up

past all the taps on all the floors.

And all of them set to k*ll.

The rest of you

can take the scenic route,

but I favour

the more direct approach.

Kurt, wait.

Cyb-eriad has shut off the power.

Not all the power.

That's one doorman

who deserves a tip.

WWW Bobby

Lighten up. Wefire been in worse spots.

You OK, Firestar?

Yes. No. I don't: know.

Something about Cybefiad bothers me.

Besides the fact

he's trapped us in the mansion?

'One of you knows,' Cyberiad said,

but which one?

Relax. Let my mind scan yours.

L'l: is not you, Cyclops,

nor you, Storm,

nor you, Spider-Man.

And I sense you worry, my friend.

Rest assured I will not probe

your secret identity.

Danika-wait.

Firestar, there is a memory

deep viithin you.

One you are suppressing.

One you must experience again.

Ne. Yes. I remember new.

Several years egoJwes going

tooollegeomheWsstCoast,

Mira?

Who, Firesiar?

His name was Nathan Pryce.

He was a physicist

Pdnelverbeeninlovebefore.

I helped him in his experiments

to mentally fuse matter

with anti-matter.

mm.

Firestar. What did you do to me?

Why did you hurl: me?

No, Naman.

I didn'l: do anything. I'l: was

Don't: touch me, you fiaitor.

No, Nathan.

I navel" saw him again.

I know he blamed me for the accident.

The accident that turned

Nathan Pryce into a cyborg,

half man, half thinking machine

named Cyb-eriad.

And new he, I't, intends to take

his revenge on you and all of us.

Mum

as if I knew something terrible

was going to happen.

A most touching confession, Firestar.

grateful

Your blundering gave me powers

I had not thought possible.

Beam-swims;

installed mm.

Let's see how well you do.

My data circuits tell me Nightcravfler

is the jokester of the X-Men.

How appropriate

for what I have in mind.

Sea? You canfi: even telep-orl:

from my plasma bubble.

Nonetheless, you will lead

your friends to their ultimate doom.

No. You mustn't. This is inhuman.

He's right. I canfi: let this

go on any further. I can't.

I have been programmed to seek

revenge on the mutant Firestar.

This programming

mrerrides all other commands.

No. I programmed you.

I, Nathan Pryce.

Stop this before ifs to-o late. Stop.

Programming will proceed.

This is all my fault.

Cyberiad just wants revenge on me.

He may well get his revenge,

taxman-am

an.

Unless we reach him viithin twvo hours,

the X-Mansion will be vap-orised.

A mekdwm oi the power core.

Nilride gas. One of my taps.

Hes tapped boih

the Spider-Hana and the X-Men.

Bu! he's more than e men.

Flo's part robot, part living computer;

fizbaafizamad

threatens to destroy the entire

X-Men Mansion and everyone inside.

Good

Come on, Cyclops.

Give that door

the old penetrating stare.

- You bet, Iceman.

- Wait, Scott.

The walls are anodised

against your eyebeam energy rays.

The blast could ricochet

and hit any of us.

Sorry about that, guys.

Maybe a gentler approach

will do the irick.

I'll phase through.

Way to go. Sprite-

Professor, how can we possibly

reach the aific

M111 all of the mansion's defences

against us?

I suggest we split into teams.

Good idea. That way, some of us

might make I't and stop the meltdo-uvn.

Wanna be on my team?

Sprite, Colossus and Storm,

take the main stairs.

Cyclops, Thunderbird and Iceman,

the back way.

Spider-Men, Firestar and I

will head for the elevator.

Let's go,

and lefs be careful out there.

Cerebro indicates they've split up.

How resourceful.

I must match their clemremess.

I'll program Cerebre to use their euvn

greatest fears and desires against them.

And I'll start M111 a little help

from Nightcraviler.

Come on. Quietly.

Nightcravflerl Where did you come from?

Wait. Somethinds different about him.

Catch me 'Ii you can.

I'll catch you, you blue devil,

and when I do

Thunderbird

He's gone.

And the door is locked.

I think this place is gonna get

a lot more confining.

Don't: panic, Storm.

I call upon the spirit

of the great grizzly.

I didn'l: know you oould do that.

You OK, Storm?

Yeah. Just.

I canfi: believe that Kurl:

led us into a trap.

He's a practical joker, but this?

Yes. He has much to explain.

I know this is diffioult for you,

Firestar, but you must be bravo.

Remember, Cyberied

is not the men you once knew.

You're wrong there.

I'm sure there's something of

Naihen Pryce still left in Cyberied.

I just hope I can somehow reach him.

Hvonder haw the ether: are doing.

That wasnfi: funny, Cyb-eriad.

You just wail: until Colossus

gets a hold you.

Wham

You cam keep me baked up, Cybefiad.

Excellent.

The anti-metal walls reflected

the force of his blow back at him.

His ouvn strength knocked him out.

Now to bait yet another trap

M111 another phoney X-Man hologram.

Give UP, CY0l°P5-

The walls of your cell

are pure adamantium.

Your blasts canfi: even scratch them.

UUhflli? No.

According to Cerebrds

memory bank, Cyclops,

your greatest fear

is losing your sight.

Being in the dark, so to speak.

I canfi: see.

Colossus? Cyclops?

Here I am, Sprite.

Come on. I've found Cyclops.

Lead on, tin man.

He's in here. Only you can save him.

Hang on. cyclops-

What's the big idea?

What's this place made of?

“My

A metal that can vibrate

to block your atomic shucmre.

In other words, I've gro-uvn

accustomed to your phase.

What have you done?

Wbranium is also

an excellent sonic wave conductor,

as you're about to find out.

EM“

Gotta focus all my power

in one tiny beam.

. Steady

through

through

Talk about eyestain.

Somebody's playing

mm» ..

Ne you akight. KIN?

Colossus did this to me.

He flicked me into the ro-orn.

Here's the elevator.

I'm still blocking as many

of Cyb-eriads sensors as I can.

But I canfi: hide

the elevatofs mmrement.

Be on complete alert.

I still don't: know

how I can fight Naman.

I used to lmre him.

I think I still do a litfle.

Someone onoe said that you newrer fall

all the way out of low-re.

You'll do what you have to do.

I know, but this wasnfi: in my contract.

Wm.

The elevator cable has been cut.

This line better hold.

The line's holding,

but I'm not so sure about my arm.

We're moving by Spider-Man power.

Looks like we'll get

to the top fle-or after all.

Yes, and then

the hardest parl: begins.

Then we face the maze of madness.

Top floor. Cyb-orgs, computers

and catastrophes, everybody out.

Glad you could make I't.

It's lonely at the top.

We are running out of time.

In less than an hour,

Cerebrds core will explode.

We; mm rreaemah Gyberiad

Professor!

Mamanfium.

But wéve gotta reach Cybefiad.

And the only way is through

the maze of madness.

Every second counts.

Our homes must reach Cyberied

in time to prevent the tenifi/ing

meltdown “which threatens them all.

Dmitatlfizam

they first must survive

the mysterious maze of madness.

Wefire got to keep going.

Mammy?

The maze of madness

is e\ren crazier than the danger room.

Stay together.

It's easy to get lost in the maze.

They're just more

holographic illusions.

Don't: let them get to you.

What's the matter, bird brain?

Don't: know which way is up?

Hey. g*ng. This way to Cyb-eriad.

Wait. That's not the real Nightcravfler.

How can you tell?

When he vanished,

there was no smell of brimstone.

That means I't was

just a hologram of Nightcravfler.

Maybe the Colossus that trapped me

Wasn't the real Colossus.

I knew Peter Rasputin

wouldn't pull such a rotten trick.

But if he can make our images,

how do we know

who's real and who isn't?

There's no time for puzzles, Storm.

Let's just try to get to the attic.

And then ifs up to me.

Yes, Firestar, you will give me

my sweetest revenge.

Firestar knows she's the one

Cyberiad is after.

No matter how greeflhe odds,

everything depenk on her.

thought

mm.

I failed that one,

but I'll pass this one.

Brave words, Firestar, but wrong.

No. I canfi: let this happen to her.

Not to Firestar.

Yes. Especially to Firestar.

Ma.

I smell brimstone.

Kurt, is I't really you?

Yes, Cyclops. I managed to escape

from the plasma bubble

that Cyb-eriad

had held me prisoner in.

We have to reach him.

There are only a few minutes left

before the meftde-uvn.

I know. This way.

I can lead you to him.

I'm so glad you reminded me

about the brimstone smell

of the devil, Thunderbird.

I programmed Cerebro

to add I't this time.

Now the only one loft

is the one I most desire.

This is crazy.

There's goth be away out.

mam.

Let the other: go, Nathan.

Rs me you want.

Since you're so conoemed

about them, Firestar,

why don't: you join them?

I'm sorry I't has to end like this.

L'l: hasnfi: ended, Firestar.

You're just another hologram.

Yes, I've taken Cerebrds

cenhal control unit,

and now there's nothing you can do

to stop the moltdo-uvn.

I've got to get out of here.

It's no use.

I can't break the bubble.

I canfi: hear you, Spidey.

Haidwb reach

I'l:'s useless, Professor.

She eanfi: hear me.

Perhaps she can hear me, Spider-Man.

Firastar; try to reach

the Image-battery unit.

It may deactivate the plasma bubble.

It's worth a try.

Don'! boiherebout us. Stop Cyberied.

We have onlyfive minutes left.

Right, ..

- Nathan!

- Ne, Fheshr.

Nathan Pryce no longer exists

because of you.

Now there is only Cyb-eriad.

Wefire got to use teamwork.

Cyke, try to focus these energy eyes

of yours fight enough

to burn a small hole

through the bubble.

Hear the nega-baflnws charge

was used up to free Fkeshat.

Maybe so, but I've got an idea.

Keep your fingers crossed.

Brace your arms

against the field, metal man.

You are a scientist,

whoever else you may be.

Using Colossus-ts body

to amplify the nega-batterg/'s charge

is a brilliant idea.

[HE brilliant

As they say in department shores,

charge it, lady.

- That fielded.

- Way to go, webhead.

There's only one minute left.

Nathan, fight your programming.

You can do 'n.

Become a human again,

not a machine.

The meltdo-uvn will take care of your

friends, and I shall take care of you.

Naman, you canfi: let the machine Mn.

Then, I'm sown], Nathan.

You're fusing my circuits!

I still lmre you, Firestar.

I know, Naman, but rest now.

Spidey, what you said earlier

about nmrer falling

all the way out of lmre.

I think you were wrong.

- Sorry about that.

- So am I.
