X-Men Milestones: Phalanx Covenant #[nn]
In "The Measure of the Man," Lang makes a critical stand to buy time for Cable, Wolvie, and the Summers couple as they launch a daring infiltration of the Phalanx citadel—pushing the X-Men’s fight against the techno-organic threat to a breaking point. Written by Larry Hama and brought to life with sharp, kinetic art by Steve Skroce, the issue pulses with tension as the battle on Earth echoes across the stars, where a new Phalanx begins to plot its next move. The cover by Adam Kubert and Mark Farmer captures the moment’s weight with stark, powerful detail.
