Generation X #66

Part four of "Correction" arrives with a cover by Steve Pugh that makes its threat unmistakably clear: a gray-haired man in a black suit stands at the center of a sea of fallen, unconscious bodies, cradling a glowing skull while his eyes burn a menacing red. Scrambling desperately across that grim landscape are several Generation X members in their red-and-gold X-Men uniforms, looking battered and outmatched. Warren Ellis and Brian Wood bring their story to a near-boil here, and Pugh's artwork sets a cold, imposing tone that makes this 2000 installment hard to put down.
