Synopsis
Communicating telepathically with Professor Xavier in the future, Wolverine learns that Africa is about to be wiped out – by Storm. The X-Men rush to Africa to find their friend, but the trouble has already begun. Possessed by a psychic entity known as The Shadow King, Storm now thinks her homeland is burning, and is using the full scope of her powers to douse the flames. Wolverine must act quickly if he's to prevent the destruction of an entire continent—but to stop Storm without hurting her, Wolverine will need to find a way to free her mind from Shadow King's clutches.
