Absolutely loved this story. The comic set up for new X-men and Alpha readers (very good for starters of ether series). The premise of this story so far is really working

Back when Marvel did 2 shot comics(my favorite), this was definitely one of my favorites, especially when written by Claremont.
Reading old comic series from my “FAVORITES” stash.
