Written by JASON AARON
Pencils and Cover by CARLOS PACHECO
The X-Men event of the decade starts here! It's never been a more dangerous time to be a mutant. Even with their numbers at a record low, the world refuses to trust mutantkind…and after a mutant-triggered international incident, anti-mutant hatred hits new heights. Of course it's at this moment, when the mutant race needs most to stand together, that a split begins that will tear apart the very foundation of the X-Men. From superstar writer and Marvel Architect Jason Aaron and a full roster of comics' top artists, this is an X-tale that will reverberate for years to come! Come October, the X-Men landscape will be irreparably changed. 48 PGS.

BONUS REVIEW by SHANNA BERRY
So was this concentrated build-up worth it? ABSOLUTELY! Before making any assumptions about this being an event book: read this issue. Jason Aaron writes the X-men better than anyone in…I don't know how long. It's fantastic. We all know he writes a mean Wolverine (his weapon x was severe, his current Wolvie run has been stellar). Now spread that across the X-verse and we got one helluva good read!
This just feels old-school. Humans hating mutants, mutants about to be extinct, and an end you won't see coming! What the conflict is, I'll let you find out for yourselves.
As a long-time X-reader, it's been really fun finding my way back. I was lost there for a while, just wasn't my X-men anymore. If you have felt like that anytime in the last decade, now is the time for your return. You won't regret it.
