Brief Description of X-Men Issue 11
Registering a very powerful energy signature, both the Brotherhood and the X-Men rush to recruit the new mutant. Magneto makes first contact and he and Mastermind try to impress the stranger with their abilities. They end up annoying their potential recruit who turns Mastermind to stone. As the X-Men arrive the Stranger leaves with Magneto and the Toad. Left behind are Quicksilver and the Scarlet Witch who believe they have worked off their debt to Magneto and decide to return to their native Europe. Not far away the new mutant reveals himself to be an alien called the Stranger. His people are intrested in mutations and he picks Magneto and the Toad as his new specimen, since they insisted to ally with him. The X-Men can only observe as they depart to the stars. Back at home, Cerebro registers a new powerful presence.
