Chris Claremont Knihy

Do týmu X-Men přichází noví a zásadní členové. Poprvé se objevuje Kitty Pride... A hned jí jde o život. Ovšem pekelně záludný Hellfire Club není to nejhorší, co X-Meny čeká. V dvaadvacáté knize řady Comicsové legendy začíná jedna z největších událostí komiksového vesmíru. Přichází Dark Phoenix. Celý vesmír je v ohrožení a v centru víru, který může zničit veškerou existenci, je jedna jediná osoba - Jean Greyová.

X-Meni, které shromáždil profesor Charles Xavier, aby bránili svět, jenž se jich bojí a nenávidí je, vybojovali již mnoho bitev, zažili dobrodružství po celé galaxii a pokořili protivníky s nesmírnou mocí, ale nic z toho je nemohlo připravit na nejstrašnější dilema, jakému kdy museli čelit. Jedna z jejich vlastních řad, Jean Greyová, získala moc mimo veškeré představy a tato moc ji absolutně zkorumpovala! Zbylí členové týmu se nyní musí rozhodnout, jestli život ženy, kterou milují, stojí za existenci celého vesmíru.

Děti atomu. Mutanti. Nenávidění a proklínaní - a přesto bojující za lidi, kteří by je nejraději upálili na hranici. Ve dvanácté knize ze série Comicsové legendy se již podruhé střetnou se svým největším protivníkem, samotným vládcem magnetických polí Magnetem! A utkají se nejen s ním. Svedou také nelítostný boj se svými předchůdci, s tajemnými bytostmi na cizí planetě i s robotickou chůvou. Ocitnou se v cirkuse (a ne zrovna jako návštěvníci), ve vesmíru a dostanou se i do útrob sopky. A to vše díky scénáři legendárního Chrise Claremonta a v kresbě Johna Byrna.
