Uncanny X-Men #18

For the first time in New Orleans history, the city has declared a MUTANT APPRECIATION DAY festival and street fair, with all the music, food and fun the city is famous for. If the Hellfire Gala is filet mignon, this is corn dogs and lemonade.

But are all mutants okay with this attempt at bridging the gap, or are sinister forces lurking behind the Tilt-A-Whirl?
