It's X-Men Monday, the most treasured of international holidays, but Marvel X-Editor Jordan White has forsaken his responsibilities and declined to provide us with previews this week.

PS I am out of the office today, so no new previews. Sorry! — Jordan D. White (@cracksh0t) September 24, 2018

Luckily, our hero, Uncanny X-Men writer Kelly Thompson, has stepped in to provide us with our first look at October's Mr. and Mrs. X #4. As we saw on the final page of Mr. and Mrs. X #3, Rogue and Gambit were captured while infiltrating Shi'ar homeworld of Chandilar to rescue Xandra, the daughter of Charles Xavier and Lilandra Nermini, and left hanging upside down in a Shi'ar prison, depowered and helpless.

Well, not completely depowered it seems. They still have…

Thompson provided a clue as to how these newlyweds will get out of their predicament.
