Story Summary:
In a future where mutants are no longer seen as heroes, Xi’an Chi Xan gathers a new generation of mutants under the X-Men name. Set in the corporate-controlled dystopia of 2099, this debut issue introduces the team, their mission, and the harsh realities of surviving in a world that’s rejected the dream of Xavier. Packed with Ron Lim’s bold visuals and fast-paced narrative worldbuilding, this issue laid the foundation for a fan-favorite futuristic mutant saga.
