Uncanny X-Men #521

X-Factor #201
Something is rotten in the state of Latveria. How does it relate to the disappearance of the Invisible Woman?

And will you buy the issue in order to find ...

Astonishing X-Men #33
"EXOGENETIC," PART 3 Dead mutants turned into biological weapons...genetically-reprogrammed Brood sleazoids...missing data on Henry McCoy's research computers...the truth about what Abby Brand was trying to burn out on Cruithne.

Cable #21

Astonishing X-Men #32
The X-Men have fought towering, mutant-slaying robot Sentinels before. But never one quite like this.

And as the X-Men fight for their lives, they're left to wonder: What could this monstrosity hav...
Kind of pointless until the reveal

They might not have much of ...
