Owner's Description

“The Good Shepherd” At the Xavier Institute, Charles Xavier exercises, while he takes in the events that have occurred in the last few days. While he recalls the events that led to him and Moira to fall in love, Nightcrawler and several others monitor Cecelia Reyes in the Danger Room, who is fighting her addiction to the performance-enhancing drug called rave, by going cold turkey. Wolverine and Rogue take a break from meditating to drop by Shadowcat’s room, where Rogue reveals that Kitty had been researching the seventh volume of Destiny’s diaries, before she disappeared. After learning that Shadowcat may have known about her disappearance before it occurred, the two flip through the diary and find a section depicting them in the present, as well as Gambit and Storm, confronting Mystique in the hospital. In the hospital, Mystique warns the X-Men of a dark future for mutant kind. She tried to decipher Destiny’s diaries but failed. That is why she has given her remaining diaries to Xavier. However, many are still missing. At the mansion, Xavier helps Cecelia overcome her fears and helps her begin her journey on the road to recovery. <br /><br />Moira MacTaggart and Senator Robert Kelly both died at the end of Dream’s End in X-Men (2nd Series) #108. Moira was fatally wounded in an explosion on Muir Isle created by Mystique, while Senator Kelly was assassinated by a human for calling for mutant rights. Before her death, Moira produced a vaccine for the Legacy Virus, though her work won’t be properly deciphered until Uncanny X-Men #390. <br /><br />Cecelia used Rave to save Nightcrawler from the Neo in X-Men (2nd Series) #101. <br /><br />Rogue began to display powers she absorbed from people in the past after a freak accident with Z’cann, a telepathic skrull, in X-Men (2nd Series) #107. <br /><br />Shadowcat discovered Destiny’s diary in X-Men (2nd Series) #94. She went missing in X-Men (2nd Series) #100.<br /><br />This issue came from my personal collection that I submitted raw to CGC at the NY National 2007.<br /><br />
