Experience some of the greatest stories the blockbuster X-Men franchise has to offer! The era's top talents mark milestone after mutant milestone beginning with the “Brood Saga.” Then, author Chris Claremont rises to find perhaps his most poignant and challenging expression of the mutant metaphor in “God Loves, Man Kills.” His work with Frank Miller on WOLVERINE skyrocketed the character's popularity, setting the stage for his breakout as a global icon. The X-Men classics continue with a look into Professor X's past with Magneto, Kitty Pryde and Colossus's growing romance, Illyana Rasputin's transformation into Magik, encounters with Dracula; Rogue's debut with the X-Men, the first appearance of the Morlocks; and the wedding of Cyclops and Madelyne Pryor.
