Issue Description

John Sublime captures Cyclops and Emma, intending to dissect them for their mutant organs. He plans to dismember all mutants, including those of the Xavier Institute, and implant their body parts in human beings, bestowing ordinary people with incredible powers.

Wolverine rescues Angel from becoming Sublime’s latest victim and tries to help her come to terms with being a mutant. Even though Wolverine means well, Angel seems resistant to him and X-Men.

Jean comforts Beast and Beak, trying to help them and discover the cause of their pain. She’s taken aback when Beak tells her that Professor Xavier is responsible.

The U-Men attack the mansion and Jean leaves to stop them before Beast can tell her that Cassandra Nova is the real reason he and Beak were attacked.

Outside of the Xavier Institute, Jean and the students prepare to defend the school and stop the U-Men in a battle for their lives.
