X-Men: Deadly Genesis #5
In "Part 5 of 6," the X-Men face a shocking revelation as Vulcan’s true identity begins to unravel.

Written by Ed Brubaker and illustrated by Trevor Hairsine and Scott Hanna, with colors by Val Staples and letters by Artmonkeys' Dave Lanphear, the issue’s cover by Marc Silvestri and Joe Weems captures the tension of a legacy fractured.

The government sends a Sentinel against Vulcan but he quickly destroys it. Cyclops uses this diversion to send Rachel back to the mansion to contact the rest of the X-Men for help. Vulcan takes Cyclops to Muir Island and they wait for Professor X to show up. Xavier arrives, followed quickly by the X-Men. Cyclops is horrified when Xavier admits that Vulcan has been telling the truth--he is part of a previous team of X-Men who died on Krakoa and is also Scott's brother. Vulcan demands that Xavier show them all telepathically, but Charlie admits that he can't do so as he is no longer a mutant.
