In "Dying Inside," the first chapter of X-Men: Return of Magik Must Have #1, Blindfold spins a chilling tale of Belasco and his former protégé, Magik, to the young students at Xavier's — a story that quickly blurs the line between myth and nightmare. Written by Craig Kyle and Chris Yost, with art by Skottie Young and Niko Henrichon, and colored by Young and Jean-François Beaulieu, the issue unfolds with a creeping dread as the students realize the dark legend is unfolding in real time. The haunting cover by Olivier Coipel and Mark Morales captures the eerie tone perfectly.

Blindfold spins a chilling tale of Belasco’s dark reign and Magik’s fateful descent into Limbo, warning the young New X-Men of the ancient sorcerer’s return.

In "Planting Seeds," Illyana Rasputin returns to the X-Mansion seeking help from Peter and Kitty to recover the lost bloodstones that could restore her soul—only to find the once-familiar sanctuary reduced to ruins. The echoes of her past, from Belasco to her fallen teammates, linger in the silence as she faces the weight of what’s been lost.
