The Uncanny X-Men #342
In "…Did I Miss Something?", the X-Men find themselves stranded aboard a runaway Shi'ar starship hurtling toward a stargate, with only Beast’s quick thinking and Joseph’s latent powers to guide them through a deadly asteroid field. On the other side, they discover a deserted spaceport and a gravely wounded Deathbird—her presence a mystery that echoes through the silent corridors of a fallen empire. Written by Scott Lobdell and brought to life by Joe Madureira’s dynamic art, with Tim Townsend’s inks and Steve Buccellato’s colors, this 1997 issue delivers a tense, high-stakes journey across the cosmos, all while Cannonball grapples with the fallout of their sudden disappearance back on Earth.

Gladiator has teleported half of the X-Men (as well as intrepid news reporter Trish Tilby) onto an out of control Shi'ar starship hurtling toward a stargate. Beast gets the ship under control but finds there is an asteroid field between themselves and their destination. Joseph uses his powers to get the ship through safely. On the other side of the gate, they find a busy Shi'ar spaceport completely desolate aside for one badly wounded survivor--Deathbird. Meanwhile, back on Earth, Cannonball has to explain to the rest of his comrades how he lost the X-Men.
