Magneto’s return has stunned the X-Men, but that’s not the only surprise they’re in for, as a herd of Predator X’s come hungry for mutant tar tar. The hits just keep on coming, but can the X-Men, still nursing their wounds from "Utopia," deal with all this?
Cyclops takes a voyage into the head of Emma Frost in hopes of containing the horrifying piece of the villainous Void that has been stuck there since "Utopia." Can they possibly defeat the awfulness that has haunted the most powerful being in the Marvel Universe?
Tensions are rising on Utopia as the X-Men deal with the new members of their team and the fact that the island is... well... sinking. And Wolverine and a classic pal take one of the craziest journeys you’ve ever seen.
There's a rogue Predator X stalking mutants beneath New York City and it's down to Wolverine and Fantomex to hunt it down. There's an island in the San Francisco Bay that the mutants call home and it's slowly sinking, and only King Namor can save the day. And meanwhile, in San Francisco, a supermob is making life hard in Chinatown... somebody call the X-Men!
What on Earth is Magneto doing on top of Mt. Tamalpais, just across the Golden Gate Bridge from San Francisco? He’s not telling and the X-Men Psychics can’t get it out of his brain. But he’s been up there for days plotting something that will rock the X-Verse to its core. All this while Wolverine, Psylocke, Colossus and Fantomex take on the foes that have been plaguing the X-Men since the start of “Nation X.”
She’s been gone for a long time, but she’s coming back. This isn’t a hoax. This isn’t a joke. Kitty Pryde is back in this over-sized special issue of Uncanny X-Men!
The race to find Cable and Hope is on, but who will get to them first? Will it be Cyclops and the X-Men or Bastion and his mutant-hating cabal? Cyclops isn’t waiting for the answer to that, as he takes the fight directly to Bastion with the New Mutants!
