Title:
X-Men Vol. 1
Synopsis:
”Homecoming”
Iceman brings Marrow and Cecilia Reyes back to the mansion with him, following their adventures against the forces of Operation: Zero Tolerance. However, the trio is shocked to discover that Bastion has thoroughly stripped the mansion of everything by use of nanotechnology. Cyclops, Phoenix, Cannonball, Wolverine and Storm also return to the mansion with bad news: Cyclops was planted a nanotech bomb in his chest during the time he and the others were imprisoned by Bastion in the Hulkbuster Base and Jean is barely keeping the bomb from exploding thanks to her telekinesis. Cecilia decides to perform an operation in order to save Scott’s life – as well as theirs. Cannonball brings antibiotics from a drugstore, and Storm boils some water while Cecilia uses Wolverine’s middle claw as an impromptu scalpel to open up Scott. Things are further complicated when Juggernaut shows up, together with his lawyer, and announces that he is the legal owner of Xavier’s financial estate, following Charles’ incapacitation. Juggernaut is ultimately enraged by the disdainful way the team treats him and decides to attack. However, at that moment, Rogue, Beast, Joseph, Maggott, and Trish Tilby also returned to the mansion. Bemused by Maggott’s slugs and amused by the overall condition of the team, Juggernaut departs. Peace restored, Cecilia extracts the bomb by use of Marrow’s bones, and Rogue ingeniously tosses it to one of Maggott’s slugs, which devours it, saving everybody from certain death. Eventually, everybody goes to bed, although the current developments, including the animosity between some of the team members, the absences of Gambit, Bishop and Professor Xavier and the arrival of Maggott, Cecilia and Marrow guarantee that things are not going to be easy.
An all new group of X-Men embark on an all different adventure! Deadly Homecoming!
