X-Men: Curse of the Mutants - X-Men vs. Vampires

In 2011, Marvel pitted the X-Men against a vampiric threat in this single-issue tie-in to the larger Curse of the Mutants event. Illustrated by Nick Bradshaw, the story expands the conflict between mutantkind and a vampire army led by the ancient Xarus, exploring how even the most powerful mutants can be undone by a supernatural enemy. It's a compact, action-driven chapter that underscores the X-Men's vulnerability outside their usual mutant-centric battles.
