As Xavier’s psychic probe reveals hidden schemes, the X-Men split into teams—one led by Cyclops, Wolverine, and Rogue, who clash with Doom’s forces, and another, including Colossus and Zsaji, whose growing connection adds quiet tension to the fray.

In the crumbling aftermath of Galactus’s rampage, Dr. Doom channels the power of Klaw’s remains through his lenses, absorbing the energy of the dying world ship and confronting the Beyonder in a clash of wills.
