One of their own members, Jean Grey, has gained power beyond all comprehension, and that power has corrupted her absolutely! Now they must decide if the life of the woman they cherish is worth the existence of the entire universe!

Marc Silvestri's uncanny legacy as an X-Men artist begins here!
The artist who would define a new era of mutant drama kicks things off with the X-MEN VS. AVENGERS limited series, in which Magneto is summoned to trial for crimes against humanity. Can the Avengers bring him to justice? And why are the X-Men standing in their way?
Next, Alan Davis draws an epic Annual introducing the alien force named Horde! Then, Silvestri joins with mutant maestro Chris Claremont for a run of legendary stories - including the iconic "Fall of the Mutants," which changed everything for the X-Men.
In a major status quo change for the series, the X-Men relocate to Australia - where they take on the cyborg Reavers!
