THE STORY:
The biggest event to hit the X-Men in ten years is here! Superstars Ed Brubaker (UNCANNY X-MEN, CAPTAIN AMERICA) and Marc Silvestri (UNCANNY X-MEN, NEW X-MEN) bring you the first chapter of the story that fans will be talking about for years. Just when it looked like there was no possibility of a future for mutants, hope arrives. But the X-Men aren’t there to meet it—The Marauders and Purifiers beat them to it. Now the race is on to get the first new mutant since HOUSE OF M! The story that begins here continues through all the X-Men books. Don’t miss it!

All i will say...this is a MUST BUY. Hands down the best X-Men event opener that i can remember. If the rest of the event keeps up like this, it will be the best in a long time and will be hard for marvel to beat.

Just finished my copy and while i agree this is a great read not sure if this is a must buy. I haven't been feeling about half the X titles for a while now the only good books left are X-factor, New X-men and Astonishing X-men. the rest have been real sub par imo.

I grabbed a few...already got some offers for about $70.00 for one..hehe. They have been selling well. Not quite the level of sales that Captain America had for the death issue, but not bad so far. If it keeps up how i think it will, then the first issue is going to go up in value for sure.
