A deadly cadre of warriors pursue their target to Earth – a target making a beeline to the X-Men’s home territory of Alaska! But who is this fugitive, and what grim portents do they carry for the X-Men? As a horde of the galaxy’s most fearsome killers descend upon the X-Men, help comes from an unexpected direction: across the border! Alpha Flight flies into action again, though at what price? And can even Canada’s hardiest heroes turn the tide? A simple search-and-rescue mission escalates out of control – placing not just the X-Men, but also the entire town of Merle in danger! And as 3K steps out from the shadows for the first time to further their twisted program, will the Means – their anointed headsman – slake his bloodthirst on our mutant heroes? Plus: Meet the all-new, all-different X-Men-staking their own claim for possession of mutantkind’s future!
