The saga continues as the mutants on Mars deal with both the promise and the threat that Arakko represents to the Marvel Universe. Storm, Magneto, Sunspot, Abigail Brand, and the mutants of the Great Ring continue to forge Arakko’s uncertain future in a place of mystery, strength, and endless conflict.
