Owner's Description

“The Cure” After seventy-two hours in his laboratory, Beast is able to discover the cure for the Legacy Virus after deciphering the notes of the late Dr. Moira MacTaggart. Xavier, Cecelia Reyes, Gambit and Wolverine congratulate Beast, who explains to them how the cure works. However, Beast and Cecelia realize that the cure can only be released after its host uses his or her power, which will then kill him or her. Beast stores the cure in a cabinet and goes out to play basketball with Gambit and Wolverine to clear his head. While the three debate on how they should be living their lives as mutants, Xavier enters the game. Inside, Cecelia senses something wrong with Colossus, who tells Cecelia all about his dead sister, Illyana. Cecelia realizes what Colossus wants to do, but he knocks her out before she can stop him. He injects the cure into himself and, for the last time, uses his mutant power. Cecelia recovers and desperately tries to save Colossus, but there is nothing she can do, as the longtime X-Man leaves to be reunited with his sister. <br /><br />Illyana contracted the Legacy Virus in Uncanny X-Men #300 and died in #303. <br /><br />Colossus’ death will have unforeseen repercussions, as well as an unexpected twist, as detailed in Astonishing X-Men (3rd Series) #1-6<br /><br />This copy is a Signature Series copy and was signed by Dexter Vines.<br /><br />
