“The Light That Failed”

In "The Light That Failed," the X-Men face off against Mastermold in a brutal clash that sends shockwaves through their ranks—Rogue is pulled into the Siege Perilous during the fight, and the aftermath leaves Senator Kelly reeling from a personal loss. Written by Chris Claremont and brought to life with intense precision by Marc Silvestri, Dan Green, and Glynis Oliver, this issue captures the escalating tension between mutants and their enemies with emotional weight and dynamic art. The cover by Marc Silvestri and Dan Green perfectly frames the chaos of the moment.
