Synopsis:
As the remaining X-Men bury their recently deceased teammate Storm, a call is received by the base's computer. The call is from the missing Lorna Dane, a.k.a. Polaris, asking for help. The X-Men investigate the call, leading them to Punta Arenas, Chile. Upon arrival, the X-Men witness Polaris being kidnapped by warriors from the Savage Land, led by Zaladane and her Savage Land Mutates. Reaching a stalemate, the X-Men offer to allow Zaladane's forces to withdraw with their captive, if only the innocent people of Punta Arenas are left alone. Zala accepts and and she and her forces leave, failing to notice that one soldier in her army is none other than the disguised Havok.
Notes:
-Signed by Marc Silvestri on 05/19/2022
-The star symbol on the X-Men's table was designed by Madelyne in Uncanny X-Men #232 as a mysterious calling card, similar to the Lone Ranger's silver bullet. The symbol was first put into use in Uncanny X-Men Annual #12 when it was left behind on an obelisk in the Savage Land.
-The events the Havok witnesses on the monitors in the computer room took place in the previous issue, Uncanny X-Men #248.
-Although it is never stated plainly, it is assumed that Jubilee helped Havok to his bed, and placed the note on the flowers.
