“In NEW MUTANTS #12, a.k.a. chapter three of X-Men: Second Coming, the Purifiers target the X-Men’s teleporters during a fight and unleash a weaponized spell on Magik just as she’s about to get to Hope and teleport her out,” recounts Yost of the circumstances leading to HELLBOUND. “A portal opens and scary things pull her into Limbo, taking her out of the fight. And she doesn’t come back.”
