“Better”

In "Better," Kieron Gillen and Jamie McKelvie deliver a poignant chapter in the Generation Hope saga, where the team rushes to meet a newly emerged mutant—only to arrive too late. The emotional weight of Zee’s struggle with his transformation and the crushing isolation he faces cuts deep, setting a powerful tone for the series. The cover by Salvador Espin captures the moment’s haunting intensity.
