It’s an all-new, all-different version of the X-Men as told by some of Europe’s greatest comics storytellers!  In this vivid re-imagining of the X-Men mythos, everything is not as it seems and teenaged versions of Cyclops, Beast, Wolverine, Iceman, Storm and Rogue face a threat worse even than super villains or race-destroying viruses… HIGH SCHOOL! Xavier’s students face the deadly Sentinel robots, but is it Magnus who unleashed this threat, or someone even more dangerous? The gang will need some unlikely allies if they hope to stop the Sentinels’ wave of destruction, and not everyone will make it out alive!

Penciled by STEVE MCNIVEN

Covers by STEVE MCNIVEN & MICHAEL TURNER

Millar. McNiven. Wolverine. It doesn’t get any better than this. The only way writer Mark Millar (Wanted, Kick-Ass) could top his all-time classic Wolverine tale “Enemy of the State” was to take it to the future —his Civil War brother in arms, Steve McNiven, handling the art duties! Fusing the dystopian super-hero elements of the X-Men’s “Days of Future Past,” the wild and wooly futurescapes of Mad Max, and the tragic pathos of Clint Eastwood’s archetypal Western heroes, Millar’s tale finds Wolverine at a crossroads with who he really wants to be and who he really is.
