A visitor from the future who may or may not be the future Wolverine comes to kill Professor Xavier, to prevent future horrors. Eventually he apparently succeeds, and after inheriting the Professor's holdings, Scott and Storm and Jean disband the X-Men and seek to follow his original dream of teaching mutants to co-exist in a human world. This naturally causes dissension in the ranks; some mutants leave and some decide to stick it out. Jean is tormented by the vision of the Phoenix, and it turns out that Hank McCoy's death was not quite as final as most. Intriguing storylines, with compelling interaction between the teammates, and pretty good artwork. ( )
