This has Mystique issues 14-18 in it.

Mystique is sent to Europe to look into the possiblity that a company there is doing the use mutants as lab rats and see what they can get out of them manoeuvre.

Shortpack tags along. What they discover actually goes a lot further than just a little bit of experimentation.

This review is from: Astonishing X-Men: Mystique, Vol. 3 - Unnatural (Paperback)

I always liked X-Men as a kid and when I heard about this series involving Mystique, actually working towards the greater good, it got my attention- I have only read the first three books in the series, but I think its a fun story- Mystique who has always been one of the most famous villians in the series working for Magneto is based on surrounding circumstances forced to work for Charles Xavier. This book continues the story of mystique as an undercover agent for the leader of the X-men and like the first two books its very entertaining. The graphics are great and the story is fun providing the usual comic book action. If you are a fan of the X-men, i think that this provides for a continuing enjoyable story following the complex character of mystique as she is forced to make ultimate choices as to whether she wants to continue to work for the greater good, which is clearly out of line with her past character. Good clean fun
