The long-running sexual tension between Wolverine and Domino comes to a point where it invites senseless violence.
A badly beaten, bloodied and battle-worn
Domino remembers being attacked by a group of assailants who broke into her place, which she barely survived and ended up on Alcatraz Island. She hits the washroom spitting two of her teeth into sink and tells
Elixir to heal her wounds up but
Wolverine of
X-Force stopped him from doing so.
Logan came here seeking her when he sensed that she is cooking some trouble and asks her how who did this to her. Neena spills that members of the infamous Assassins Guild took her in for a score but she never really knew who she was working for. Then shit just hit the fan and they are attacked by Ninjas of
The Hand out of nowhere.
As these villains were busy tearing each other apart, she finds out that they were after a cargo full of captive Japanese girls. She managed to smuggle them back to Texas and helped them to get back but now the Guild is very pissed at her and want payback.
Wolverine suddenly shoots the hinges off the door to see
X-23 standing on the other side and she came here following his trails. Laura suggests that
Domino is still hiding something about her encounter with Assassins Guild and the run-in with Hand. Telling her to stay out of this, he tells
Elixir to heal her before getting out.

Logan decides to stick with her and though she doesn't want his help,
Domino suggests he is hanging out for a hookup. A bullet hits him, causing the car to crash and she comes out to see the Guild sends its members to bring her. A quick shootout ensues where Wolvie joins to lend a hand before they take out everyone and passionately kiss.
The villainous Razor-Fist leading the Guild members comes out asking her about the money she stole from them and Logan too asks her the same question. He goes slicing and dicing them up until getting stabbed by the mercenary leader. Logan manages to break free and spare him to tell Belladonna Boudreaux to stop chasing Neena Thurman.
Domino later confessed to him that during the rescue of those girls, she found a truck full of 237 million dollar and took it, which is why the Guild is mad now. The gun wielding bombshell suggests that they spend some quality time together in a hotel and then discuss about what to do with the money. Being an animal, Logan simply complies.
Assassins Guild leader Belladonna is furious at the incompetence of Razor-Fist, so she calls in favor from Black Mamba,
Boomerang, Bullet,
Bushwacker, Clay and Nakh to finish the job. They are quickly located in their hotel room in San Francisco, where
Bushwacker breaks in to capture
Domino and kill
Wolverine, only to fail miserably.
These two then head to face the Guild and Neena points out walking straight to enemy lair is kind of a suicide mission she is not very fond of but for this instant, she is trusting
Weapon X. The Guild thought that he came here to exchange her life for money but he suggests that the money goes to charity and they leave
Domino alone.
An infuriated Belladonna orders her legion of killer to take them down and as the former
X-Men duo was already having a hard time to even defend their own; a group of Ninjas sent by
The Hand comes out of shadows to apprehend them.

X-Force – Sex and Violence (Softcover)
X-Force – Sex and Violence (Hardcover)
In 2010,
Marvel Comics took writers
Christopher Yost (
X-23 – Innocence Lost,
X-23 – Target X) and
Craig Kyle (
X-Force – Angels & Demons,
X-Force – Old Ghosts) to work on a three part limited series focused on
X-Force in collaboration with artist
Gabriele Dell'Otto (
Secret Wars,
The Clone Conspiracy), who mostly does cover art in general.
"
Sex and Violence" is the result of that creative process and features current
X-Force members
Archangel,
Domino,
Elixir,
Vanisher,
Warpath,
Wolverine and
X-23. After
Cyclops has deployed a strike force version of the team following the events of "
Messiah CompleX", the group has been operating as a black ops squad of mutants.

Aggression and Romance |
Although there is a certain twist in the plot that might make things interesting in the end, at times it might feels like that the story was only conceived to portray a couple of hot and steamy romantic encounter between Logan and Neena. Both Assassins Guild and
The Hand may seem underplayed and so is the character of Belladonna Boudreaux.
This sexiest blood-soaked adventure taken place in "
Sex and Violence" ushered a new direction for the team which reflected on a new monthly ongoing series
Uncanny X-Force with some new members like
Deadpool,
Fantomex and
Psylocke on the team.
