Synopsis for 1st story

• Synopsis not yet written

Solicit Synopsis

Before she was Magik, Illyana Rasputin was just a kid whom Limbo chewed up and spit out seven years older. So it’s no surprise that, at 15, she wants nothing to do with the X-Men... nothing to do with the New Mutants... and nothing to do with her own powers. It’s not even surprising that she runs away... but where — and who — she ends up? Well, that’s something you’ve never seen before.

Notes

• The Magik of Earth-616 joined the New Mutants after returning from Limbo, but Professor X knew too little about magic to train her. She regrets never receiving a formal education in sorcery when young; as an adult she has begun training with Stephen Strange.
