Mekanix #4 of 6 – 2003

The tension continues to mount in Mekanix #4 of 6 – 2003, as Chris Claremont dives even deeper into the social and emotional consequences of life as a mutant in a world that fears and misunderstands them. This powerful limited series from Marvel Comics is more than a superhero tale—it’s a pointed exploration of identity, activism, and resilience.

In this fourth issue, Kitty Pryde—known to X-Men fans as Shadowcat—faces mounting threats that threaten both her physical safety and her ideals. After turning her back on life with the X-Men to pursue a college education at the University of Chicago, Kitty finds herself in the centre of an intensifying campaign of hate directed at mutants. Alongside her close companions, including the telepathic Karma (Shan Coy Manh) and the mysterious Alice Tremaine, Kitty uncovers dark undercurrents on campus that suggest an organised assault on mutant students.

What makes Mekanix #4 so captivating is the way Claremont weaves topical social commentary into a gripping personal narrative. The issue balances emotional vulnerability with decisive action, as Kitty is forced to weigh her instincts for peace against the pressing need to fight back. The dialogue remains sharp and purposeful, offering a voice to the frustrations and hopes of those who strive to change a broken system.

Artist Juan Bobillo and inker Marcelo Sosa continue to deliver a distinct visual tone for the series—stylised yet grounded, intimate yet dynamic. Their work captures the emotional depth of the story while adding visual energy to key confrontations and quiet moments alike.

Whether you’re an X-Men collector, a fan of strong female leads, or simply seeking a Marvel series that resonates beyond its panels, Mekanix #4 of 6 delivers a thought-provoking, character-rich instalment. It’s an essential read for anyone interested in stories where justice, prejudice, and personal courage collide.
