“Blackbirds”

In "Blackbirds," Rogue is haunted by a chilling nightmare of draining Wolverine’s life force—only to face suspicion when the X-Men discover Wolverine power-drained and Rogue standing over him at the lake. With tensions rising and the Xavier Institute under scrutiny from a disapproving Board of Education representative, the team must confront the truth before blame fractures them further. Written by Steve Seagle and brought to life with striking visuals by Chris Bachalo, Tim Townsend, and Steve Buccellato, this issue delivers a tense, character-driven mystery with a cover by Bachalo and Townsend.
