Generation X 1999

In 1999, Marvel launched Generation X 1999, a one-shot special that brings the youthful mutant team into a tense encounter with Spider-Man. Written by Jay Faerber with art by Kevin Sharpe, Pete Woods, and Yancey Labat, this standalone issue offers a snapshot of the team’s dynamic during the late-'90s era of the X-Men franchise. It’s a compact but character-driven crossover that highlights the contrast between street-level heroics and mutant coming-of-age struggles.
