Title:
The Uncanny X-Men (1978)
Synopsis:
The Hunt For Xavier Part 1: Meltdown
In Nebraska, a frightened Pyro is running about, setting crops on fire, mumbling about Xavier. S.H.I.E.L.D. are called in, and Nick Fury calls the X-Men to deal with it, as they might be able to help more. The X-Men try to stop Pyro, but his powers are spiralling out of control due to the Legacy Virus, and he is running from something very, very bad. While this is happening, Marrow is wondering what the point is in searching for Xavier and clashes with Storm on the subject. Gambit brings it home for her- Xavier is just a man, a man who would risk anything to save their lives.
When it looks as though stopping Pyro will be impossible, something emerges from the flames trailing behind him- something metallic, and the reason he was fleeing, trying to warn Xavier. It attacks Pyro, taking him out, but not killing him. Kitty gets a glimpse of this thing. Later, S.H.I.E.L.D. take Pyro away.
Kitty uses the Cerebro sent over by Moira McTaggert and discovers two mutant energy signatures belonging to Professor Xavier. Then, some outside source shorts out the machine, ruining it. The X-Men decide to split up into two groups to investigate the mutant signatures. One group will head to Russia, and the other to San Francisco.
Meanwhile, something crashes into San Francisco, and it is looking for Xavier.
