It’s the end of an era in Uncanny X-Men #5 as Magneto destroys a huge part of X-Men history, does a major makeover to an old school locale and strikes two rogues – not Rogue – who have been working for mystery masters.

Magneto, Psylocke, Sabretooth, M and Archangel investigated the Someday Corporation and tried to save mutant healers hunted by the Dark Riders.

Mystique and Fantomex are running their own investigation of Someday and working for the resurrected Hellfire Club.

Spot-on character portrayals, fast-paced action, killer chemistry and multiple engaging plots and counterplots – writer Cullen Bunn is nailing it with this book. The first arc is racing to a big finish and this chapter is packed with major changes. Continue reading X-MEN Homecomings, Reunions & Destruction

X-Men Field Trip! Wolverine’s Redneck Brother!
