In "God Spare the Child," the X-Men return to the mansion only to find Professor Xavier back and ready to lead once more, his presence a quiet anchor amid rising tension. With a new mutant on the radar and the Hellfire Club eyeing young Kitty Pryde, the team must navigate loyalty, legacy, and the weight of what it means to be chosen—before the past they’ve left behind catches up.
