Brief Description:
Jock Forrester kills himself in the Everglades after learning that he is incurably ill. His pain draws the Man-Thing close and his death frees the demon D’Spayre, who temporarily destroys the Man-Thing and takes on Forrester’s form. He calls Forrester’s daughter, Lee, on the phone, inviting her to visit him. Lee is Captain of the trawler Scott Summers is working on. She invites him to come along visit her father. They are expected by D’Spayre, who imprisons them. He forces Cyclops to relive bad times in his past turned into nightmare scenarios, until Scott can’t take it anymore and jumps out of the window. Outside, he is joined by the reborn Man-Thing and, together, they face D’Spayre once more. Scott now realizes that it is despair that gives the demon strength and, refusing to give in, he finds the strength to hold him, just as the Man-Thing finds the strength to beat him – for the time being. Cyclops takes the unconscious Lee and leaves the burning house. Back at the X-Mansion, the X-Men are still trying to repair the damage to the house done by Sprite’s battle with the demon. Angel offers to help with the costs and Wolverine and Nightcrawler make fun of Kitty, who takes their taunts more serious than they were intended.

Brief Description:
Magneto gives the world’s governments an ultimatum. They are to relinquish all governing power to him or he will destroy the world. When a Russian submarine attacks his island, he destroys it and the uses his new machine to create a volcano under a Russian town. His prisoners, Cyclops, who is powerless thanks to another device of Magneto’s, and Lee Forrester decide they must stop him, though they don’t yet know how. In the meantime, the X-Men have been searching the area in their plane, looking for the disappeared Scott. When they fly over the island, the forcefield causes the plane’s controls to go haywire and they crash into the ocean. Without Magneto noticing, they join up with Cyclops and Lee. While their powers are gone, Cyclops reminds them that they still have skills and that hey have to stop Magneto. The men try to destroy the device Magneto uses to move the earth crust, while the women go looking for his computers. They soon find them but Kitty finds she cannot make head or tails of his notes, as they are written in a foreign language. Storm scout the rooms and finds Magneto asleep. She debates whether to kill him but hesitates too long. As he awakens and finds her with a knife, he magnetically tosses her outside the room, which is a quarter mile above the ground. Professor Xavier is on a yacht not too far away. He mentally attacks Magneto but the villain simply uses his powers to bring Xavier’s wheelchair – and Xavier as well – to him. He then takes Kitty and Lee prisoner and confronts the rest of the X-Men, who were just successful in destroying the machine – for all the good it does them, as Magneto easily reassembles it with his powers. Storm has survived, though, managing to hold onto a projection outside Magneto’s room. She returns to the lab and destroys several computer controls. As the X-Men’s powers return, Cyclops hits Magneto with an optic blast and the team fights him, soon joined by an angry Storm. While the others battle, Cyclops asks Kitty to find Magneto’s data banks and destroy them. Kitty finds them and phases through the system, destroying the data. Magneto notices that and joins her in the lab. He is so furious that he doesn’t know what he’s doing. Trying to get away from him, Kitty phases. As she phases though his electrical field, it causes him pain and he responds with a nearly lethal does of electricity. Seeing Kitty’s limp form, he comes to his senses and realizes what he’s done. Scared by his past in the Nazi deathcamp, Auschwitz, he had vowed to create a safe future for mutants and now he has killed a child of his own species. Storm joins them, intent on killing him, but faced with his genuine grief and remorse she refrains from doing so, suggesting that it is not yet too late for him to change. Magneto leaves and Kitty survives, thanks to her phasing power. In fact, she’s recovered enough to play a joke on the others. Xavier isn’t too bothered about Magneto’s escape. He believes that this time they were able to challenge Magneto’s dream and there is a chance that he might come out of the experience a changed and better man.

Brief Description:
Pursued by Emma Frost (in Storm’s body), Storm (in Emma’s body) makes her escape from the Massachusetts Academy with Kitty Pryde. Kitty awakens and is frightened, thinking that Storm is Emma. She attempts an escape and Storm’s efforts to stop her result in the car going off the road and down an embankment. Kitty falls separately, protected by her phasing power, while the car explodes upon impact. Emma leaves, thinking them both dead. Kitty finds what she thinks to be the body of Emma Frost, lying just outside the fire from the car’s explosion. Though Kitty does not believe her at first, Storm manages to convince Kitty to help her, since she cannot take the risk of the other X-Men being in danger. Meanwhile, the other X-Men believe Storm has become the new White Queen at Shaw’s side. Guards take Wolverine from the room where they are being held captive. Storm and Kitty are picked up by Stevie Hunter and driven back to the mansion. After dropping them off and saying goodbye, Stevie is captured by Emma and Shaw. Within the mansion, Harry Leland seemingly kills Wolverine in the Danger Room, but it is merely the appearance of death, created by Amanda Sefton. Storm uses Emma’s psionic powers to help Kitty unlock mansion’s hanger’s hatch, as Kitty is able to phase through the earth to get to it. The two manage to get inside before Emma and Shaw, still patrolling the outdoors, attack them. Inside, Kitty finds Wolverine and they exchange information. Kitty frees the X-Men by phasing through their inhibitor collars. Shaw is thrown by Colossus through a hole in the wall that Shaw had created, into the lake. The X-Men and the members of the Hellfire Club battle until a freak storm appears. On his way back, Shaw is struck down by an extremely intense bolt of lightning. Storm forces a psionic rapport with Emma in order to control the storm and then uses the persona exchange gun to switch their bodies back. All this occurs far up in the sky. Emma falls and Storm saves her just before impact, a favor for which Emma shows her appreciation by proceeding to attack Storm. Her patience depleted, Storm goes wild and intends to kill Emma, but is stopped by Wolverine’s reasoning that Storm is the type of person to show others a different way of resolving such situations. Since both groups fear exposure, they agree not to involve the authorities. Emma explains that, until Shaw recovers, the X-Men have nothing to fear from the Hellfire Club but, inwardly, vows that someday the X-Men will all die.

Brief Description:
The X-Men try to make repairs to the demolished mansion, but Xavier fears the cost is too high. In the meantime, Kitty tells the frightened Illyana a bedtime story and soon all the X-Men eavesdrop. Kitty’s story is a fantasy retelling of the Dark Phoenix saga, with her as a heroine, lots of humor and a happy ending, much to the joy of her friends, especially Cyclops.

Brief Description:
Cyclops is furious at Corsair and angry at Storm for keeping Corsair’s identity a secret. Corsair tries to explain that he believed his sons to have died in the Shi’ar attack, but Cyclops refuses to accept this answer. Their argument is interrupted when the three of them alongside the other X-Men are teleported aboard a Shi’ar dreadnought, where Lord Chancellor Araki informs them that Lilandra has been kidnapped by parties unknown, though the trail leads to Earth. The belligerent Admiral Samedar wants war but Xavier gets them to compromise, leaving the X-Men one day to try and find Lilandra their way. However, they have to leave two hostages and ultimately decide on Nightcrawler and Kitty Pryde. Back on Earth, the X-Men try to enlist the Avengers’ help but only find their latest member, Tigra (and their butler). Storm, in the meantime, accompanies Corsair on a trip to New York. There, they are shot at with a psi-scream, a weapon that amplifies their fears by the true culprit: Deathbird and her allies, the Brood. Storm and Corsair are saved by the arrival of the other X-Men and Tigra. While fighting their foes, Deatbird tries to shoot Xavier and ends up firing acid at Colossus instead but the recovered Storm saves him with her weather powers. Storm and Corsair then leave Colossus and Xavier behind to capture the Brood and Deathbird. They fail to do so and find that, in the meantime, Deathbird has attacked again, taking Xavier hostage and apparently killing Colossus. Aboard the Shi’ar dreadnought, Kitty uses the knowledge Xavier has implanted into her brain to hack into the Shi’ar computers.

Brief Description:
The X-Men are horrified to see Colossus lethally injured as they and Tigra are surrounded by cops. Luckily, the Starjammer arrives and beams them aboard, where Corsair learns that his comrades escaped the Shi’ar. Aboard, Colossus also is saved by the Starjammers’ doctor Sikorsky. In the meantime, Xavier awakes, sensing something wrong within himself and as a prisoner of the Brood and Deathbird. On the upside though, he shares a cell with Lilandra. Deatbird’s ally, Admiral Samedar, shows his prisoners, Nightcrawler and Sprite, footage of Deathbid seemingly killing Colossus to taunt them. The Starjammers give chase to Deathbird’s vessel only to be captured by the huge Broodship. Aboard, the Starjammers and X-Men fight the Brood while Corsair and Cyclops rescue Xavier and Lilandra. Together with them, they escape. However, the bad news is that they won’t be able to finish repairs to the damaged Starjammers before Earth’s deadline expires…

Brief Description:
The X-Men and Starjammers try their best to repair the Starjammer before the Shi’ar’s deadline for Earth runs out. In the process, Colossus reopens his wounds and needs to be treated again. Lilandra tries to reach the Shi’ar battle fleet in vain – unbeknownst to her, the traitor Samedar has killed her loyal chancellor Araki and is preventing her signal from being heard. Xavier mentally contacts Nightcrawler and Kitty aboard the Shi’ar cruiser to inform them Lilandra is safe. In the process, he becomes aware of a wrongness within him. As he examines it, he is mentally hit by something and falls into a coma. Using their ingenuity and the knowledge Xavier previously implanted in Kitty’s mind, Kurt and Kitty escape their cell and find the murdered Araki. Using the clothing-designer, Kitty scares the Shi’ar by pretending to be Dark Phoenix, while Kurt kidnaps the Shi’ar telepath Oracle. Once she can corroborate their story, some other trustworthy members of the Guard come to their side. However, the larger part of the Guard follows Samedar and battle ensues. Samedar plays dirty and all the good guys are captured. But when Samedar tries to destroy Earth the Starjammer intercepts just in the nick of time. Lilandra addresses the fleet and tells them to stand down and arrest Samedar. In the meantime, Deathbird gets back into the Brood’s good graces by offering them the X-Men as breeding material.

Brief Description:
The Brood-hunterships try their best to capture the X-Men's yacht without killing them. The X-Men and friends fight back, using their powers and weapons. Storm, though, notes that, for some reason, her powers are out of control and after accidentally destroying one Brood ship, she refuses to chance killing any more. In the fight, the Brood manage to damage the yacht's warp-drive and, against the protests of the others, Kitty steps outside to repair the drive, getting hit by a piece of shrapnel in the process. In the meantime, Carol Danvers' body reacts to the modification the Brood put her through. She turns into an energy form that is powered by a "white hole" and uses her new powers to destroy the Brood ships. Kitty's repairs completed, the yacht enters warp-space. Later, Carol uses her powers to re-energize the depleted matter-antimatter drive. While the X-Men effect their repairs, Nightcrawler is puzzled that Kitty's managed to completely recover from her lethal injuries. Storm, in the meantime, is ailing and doesn't know why, until she realizes there is a living being inside her. Realizing the truth, she steals a scoutship and leaves. Cyclops demands answers from Wolverine, who finally relents and tells the others that they are hosts to Brood embryos and what that means. Carol goes ballistic and flies outside, not realizing that the hole she?s burned into the hull endangers the others. Back on Earth, Xavier notices some strangeness about Illyana but finds he no longer has the strength to care.
