X-Men / Alpha Flight #1

"Survivors" kicks off a high-stakes team-up in X-Men / Alpha Flight #1 (1998), a pivotal issue where Cody’s well-intentioned move to fund Alpha Flight backfires when he unknowingly sells Mac’s power suit design to Hydra. With Kitty and Colossus taken during a date—and the entire X-Men suddenly missing—Alpha Flight must step in to rescue their allies, setting off a tense, action-packed mission that tests their limits. Written by Ben Raab and John Cassaday, with art and inks by Cassaday and cover by Cassaday, this issue blends personal stakes with larger conspiracy, all rendered in bold, dynamic style.
