In one of possibly the worst storylines ever, this was revealed to not actually have happened: it was all part of a plot to make Nightcrawler the Pope and murder Catholics with communion wafers that made them EXPLODE. Yeah, you heard me. I said it was terrible.

Chuck Austen man, Chuck Austen. I mean, it wasn’t just a dumb idea: for dessert, it was also extremely poorly written.
