About this Collection

This collection continues the reality-hopping saga of the New Exiles, a team assembled by the mutant Sage to prevent the collapse of the multiverse. In 'Soul Awakening,' the team faces new threats and personal challenges, with Betsy Braddock (Psylocke) playing a key role as they navigate alternate realities and confront the consequences of their mission. The volume collects issues #7-12 of the 2008 series, written by Chris Claremont with art by various artists.

In "The War Day Part 1," the Exiles find themselves caught in a fractured reality where England and France are locked in a brutal conflict. As Mystiq and Rogue race to protect a young prince from assassins, the rest of the team faces a dire choice: battle Havok or risk the life of England’s queen. Psylocke’s sudden visions of China and her counterpart’s death at the hands of Slaymaster send her on a desperate journey, while Cat watches in dread as realities flicker and vanish. Written by Chris Claremont and illustrated by Tom Grummett, with colors by Wil Quintana and letters by Tom Orzechowski, this issue features a striking cover by Alan Davis and Mark Farmer.
