Astonishing X-Men: Xenogenesis #1
“Xenogenesis [Part One]”
In "Xenogenesis [Part One]," the X-Men arrive in a remote African village to investigate a mystery that defies logic: reports of mutant infants being born—despite Beast's firm belief that such a thing shouldn't be possible. Warren Ellis crafts a tense, grounded mystery with Kaare Andrews' striking art bringing the story’s eerie atmosphere to life, from the haunting cover to the stark interior panels.
