Story Title: “Generation Next” - part 1: Encounter
By: Scott Lobdell
Artists: Joe Madureira & Dan Green
Synopsis: An evening car ride in Monaco turns disastrous when a member of the Phalanx decides to attack. Both the driver and another passenger are assimilated. However, the young girl, Monet, sits emotionless as she is taken prisoner and transported away. The Phalanx notes that she is likely the most powerful of the next generation of Homo Superior. Meanwhile, at Xavier’s Institute for Gifted Youngsters, Banshee returns from a trip to Massachusetts to find things are not well. He has a bizarre confrontation with Storm over the White Queen’s treatment as well as a heated discussion with Archangel over a transmission Banshee picked up from Scott and Jean. To make matters worse Jubilee is locked in a Danger Room training session alone and Banshee spots Psylocke coming out of Xavier’s private ready room. When he decides to investigate he finds Gambit and Bishop already there doing some work on Cerebro. Knowing something is wrong, Banshee mentions that Xavier is walking again and neither X-Man corrects him. Banshee leaves worried and uses the computer system to locate any real X-Men. The computer responds that there are only four mutants in the mansion: Banshee, Jubilee, Sabretooth and the White Queen. After an unsuccessful attempt to get out a call in the communications room, Banshee decides to free Sabretooth to get some help. He first has to battle Rogue who he discovers is a member of the Phalanx. After freeing Sabretooth, Banshee goes to the Ready Room to set the self-destruct sequence while Sabretooth goes off to rescue Jubilee and the White Queen. They all end up in the sewers beneath the mansion, Banshee having successfully blown up the ready room and destroying the remaining Phalanx. Prior, Banshee got out a message to the X-Men on Muir about what happened telling them to start searching for the missing X-Men. Their mission, Banshee tells his new friends, is to find and protect the next generation of Homo Superior who are being targeted by the Phalanx.
