True Believers: New Mutants #1
"Initiation!" kicks off a fresh chapter for the New Mutants as they settle into their new home, navigating emerging powers, new friendships, and the guidance of unfamiliar teachers—all while sensing they're being watched. Chris Claremont's writing, brought to life by Bob McLeod's distinctive art and Mike Gustovich's inks, sets a tense tone as Psyche faces an unexpected threat in the Danger Room, and Moira uncovers a startling revelation about Professor X's past. The cover by Bob McLeod captures the team's uneasy transition with quiet intensity.
