IT’S A WILD, WILD WORLD!

The rise of mutant monsters has put mutantkind on high alert as the question of “who will be next?” grows imminent. On Krakoa, a bizarre eco-technological structure has risen around Nightcrawler’s home, and Vox Ignis is on the case to figure out the origins. What he discovers has the potential to bring the foundation of the living island to its knees. With the clock running against them, will the Legionnaires be able to quell the spiraling chaos before it is too late?
