X-Men: Regenesis

Kieron Gillen and Billy Tan crafted this single-issue Marvel special, which served as a pivotal status-quo reset for the X-Men line in 2011. Following the schism between Cyclops and Wolverine, the book mapped out the fractured team's new directions, dividing the mutant population into two distinct schools of thought. It’s a compact but essential bridge between major X-Men eras, clarifying the stakes for the split that defined the franchise for years to come.
