RESTOCK ALERT! X-MEN: ELSEWHEN VOL. 1 is back!

You asked, we got more — John Byrne's lost X-Men epic is back on the shelf at Kowabunga!

This sold out FAST last time.

What if Jean Grey survived the Dark Phoenix Saga?

That's the whole premise. Byrne picks up the story right where his legendary run with Chris Claremont left off — the moon, the Shi'ar, Jean sacrificing herself to save the universe... except this time, she lives. She comes home.

Now the X-Men have to deal with what that means. Jean is alive but powerless, traumatized, and where is the most dangerous force in the universe now?

Vol. 1 is 232 pages, Byrne wrote and penciled every page — full classic team back in action: Savage Land, Sauron vs. Wolverine [on that cover!], Sentinels attacking NYC in a massive throwdown with the Avengers, Fantastic Four & Spider-Man.

Pure, classic, 1980s X-Men like you haven't seen in decades.
