This debut issue a few more variant covers.
Plus the main cover.
We open with a look at Marvel’s X-Men or mutant space program, although it is much more than that, is structured.
Then we have their team of teleporters…
…go on a mission…
…elsewhere…
…in spectacular fashion…
…to bring back…
…an artifact that…
…is black and “feels” relevant to King in Black and Knull’s attack on Earth (full spoilers here).
THIS is where S.W.O.R.D.’s next mission or adventure begins!

A promising start.
