X-Men: Outback - by Steve Orlando (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

A new tale set in a fan-favorite era of UNCANNY X-MEN!

Journey back to a time when the public believed Storm, Wolverine, Rogue, Colossus, Dazzler, Havok, Psylocke and Longshot were dead. From the shadows, these X-Men protected humanity from their Australian headquarters! But why did the team choose the Outback as their home base? How did tensions between them almost tear the team apart? And which of their old enemies threatened to expose their secret? The X-Men relocate to the Reavers' abandoned headquarters -- but when they trip the security system, they must protect themselves from their new home! And their hopes of peace are shattered by the ancient necromancer Yaga Dyara arriving from the Quantum Realm -- and seeking to end the Rasputin bloodline for good!
