A biotech breakthrough promises a cure for the mutant X-gene, and the news splits the X-Men down the middle: Beast, horrified by what curing himself would mean, Emma Frost under suspicion of playing both sides, and Cyclops trying to hold the team together while a Breakworld agent named Ord watches from the shadows with his own agenda. Adapting Whedon and Cassaday's celebrated comic run, the story ends with a shock no one on the team saw coming, Jean Grey, alive again.
