Synopsis
Bishop discovers that a renegade criminal from his own era, Styglut, is active in this timeline. He tracks Styglut down and engages in a battle that seemingly claims the criminal's life. Storm reprimands Bishop on his actions, indicating that the laws and moral codes that he adhered to in his own timeline do not coincide with the values of the X-Men. If he wants to make it as a member of this team, he is going to have to re-evaluate how he dispenses justice.
