Avengers: X-Sanction

Jeph Loeb and Ed McGuinness reunite for this explosive 2012 Marvel miniseries that bridges the gap between "Avengers vs. X-Men" and the "Age of Ultron" timeline. Cable, driven by a desperate vision of a doomed future, targets key Avengers—including Iron Man, Captain America, and Logan—in a violent, four-issue confrontation that pits the time-traveling mutant against Earth's Mightiest Heroes. With McGuinness's bold, dynamic art and Loeb's high-stakes scripting, this series serves as a crucial prologue, setting the stage for Hope Summers' pivotal role in the coming mutant-human conflict.
