About this Collection

This 1989 Marvel collection brings together two interconnected X-Men stories that pit the team against mystical threats from Asgard. The volume includes the 'X-Men and Alpha Flight' miniseries, where the X-Men and Alpha Flight are drawn into a conflict involving Loki and the enchanted Norn Stones, followed by the 'New Mutants Special Edition' and 'X-Men Annual' crossover that sees the New Mutants caught in a battle between the Asgardian gods. The collection showcases the X-Men's rare forays into fantasy and Norse mythology, with art by Arthur Adams and writing by Chris Claremont.

In "The Gift," Loki’s schemes take a deadly turn as he captures Storm, forcing the X-Men and their allies into a desperate race across realms. With the New Mutants scattered by Magik’s teleportation, each faces a personal trial that reshapes their understanding of power and purpose. Written by Chris Claremont and brought to life by Arthur Adams’ dynamic art—both interior and on the cover—this pivotal issue deepens the stakes of the Asgardian Wars with emotional weight and mythic scale.
