If Vicious was reminiscent of Frankenstein( unintentionally, on Schwab’s part), the story of two men who create monsters in themselves and each other, and then hunt each other to the ends of the Earth to vanquish that villainy, then Vengeful is X-Men: a fight for the future of EOs as a species, one defined by two differing opinions from within the EO community of what that future should look like. Sydney is struggling with her part in Victor’s condition, as well as the isolation that comes from being an 18-year-old stuck in a 13-year-old girl’s body. Eli has been locked inside of a cell at ExtraOrdinary Observation and Neutralization (EON), an organization set up to catch and contain EOs. Victor is suffering from the increasingly-serious side effects of having been brought back from the proper dead. Vengeful picks up five years after the events of Vicious, and those years have not been kind to this world’s central characters.
