X-Men Adventures [II] #12
In "Reunion Part One," the X-Men find themselves caught in a web of betrayal when a performance by Morph turns deadly—Mr. Sinister and the Nasty Boys ambush them, capturing Jean. Meanwhile, Xavier and Magneto, stranded in the Savage Land, are overwhelmed by mutates and taken prisoner. With Jean forced to watch as Sauron mind controls Xavier, the team must rely on Cerebro to track them down. Written by Ralph Macchio and Len Wein, with art by John Hebert and inks by Greg Adams, this pivotal issue sees the X-Men pushed to their limits—both physically and mentally—while the stakes rise in the shadows. The cover, by John Hebert and Greg Adams, captures the tension with a striking image of Jean's helpless gaze.
