Synopsis for "Day of the Atom , Part 1 of 4 : Black Holes"
A new team of X-Men is formed, but some may not like to be on it. Tensions start as Iceman is unsure of Juggernaut being really good or not. Polaris is unsure if she wants to be on the same team as Havok, and Rogue and Gambit just don't want to serve. Nevertheless, they are placed on an assignment to China anyway. Once there they have to search for a mysterious force located by Cerebro, and they may have found it. But it looks like Xorn!
Notes
- This issue returns the title back to 'X-Men' from 'New X-Men'.
