Written by Chris Claremont with art by Bob McLeod, Sal Buscema, and others, the volume follows Dani Moonstar, Cannonball, Wolfsbane, Sunspot, and Karma as they train under Professor X and face threats like the Hellfire Club and the Demon Bear saga. It also includes the complete Magik limited series and the New Mutants Special Edition, making it a comprehensive starting point for the team's formative years.
In "And Introducing--Karma! She Possesses People!", a young mutant named Jo uses her powerful ability to possess others in a desperate mission to rescue her younger brother and sister from the grip of their manipulative uncle. With Spider-Man and the Fantastic Four caught in her path, the stakes rise as she pushes them to the edge—just to prove she’s not just a weapon, but someone who fights for family.
In "Renewal," Moira convinces Professor Xavier to assemble a new generation of mutants after rescuing a young girl with the power to become a wolf. As Xavier reaches out to other young mutants, they're targeted by soldiers sent by Donald Pierce, who seeks to eliminate them. When Xavier and Rahne are ambushed in Kentucky by Sam Guthrie—tricked into serving Pierce—Xavier is captured, forcing the group to act before Pierce can drain his mind. With courage and unity, they move to protect their mentor, setting the stage for a new beginning.
In "Initiation!", the New Mutants settle into their new home, discovering their powers and forming bonds with each other and their teachers—unaware they're being observed.

In "Sentinels," the New Mutants face a relentless assault from the Sentinels, only to uncover a deeper conspiracy tied to the government. As Col. Rossi returns from the dead and the Hellfire Club shows unexpected interest, the team begins to question who’s truly pulling the strings—especially when Psyche’s attack appears to have been triggered by Professor X himself.

In "Who's Scaring Stevie?", the New Mutants confront a chilling mystery when a series of threatening calls target Stevie, a fellow student. As they dig into the fear behind the phone calls, they uncover a hidden connection to a vulnerable classmate—someone whose past trauma has twisted into something far more dangerous than anyone expected.
In "The Hunter and the Hunted!", Spider-Man teams up with the New Mutants to rescue two of their own, caught in a deadly game orchestrated by a mob experimenting with designer drugs meant to replicate the fateful event that gave Cloak and Dagger their powers.

As they navigate the city’s vibrant streets and hidden dangers, old family secrets begin to surface—none of which Sunspot is ready to face.
In "The Road to... Rome?", the New Mutants and Sunspot’s mother find themselves adrift on the Amazon River when they’re ambushed by hostile natives. After Cannonball captures one of the attackers, the group is shocked when the captive reveals a startling truth—then their ship is destroyed, and they’re taken prisoner by a force that defies all logic: Romans.
