(W) Christina Strain (A) Amilcar Pinna (CA) Terry Dodson

The Xavier Institute for Mutant Education and Outreach has opened its doors, and is ready to foster the next generation of heroes and diplomats! But this time around, the X-Men recognize an unfortunate truth: Not all mutants are created equal. Some mutants are just not made to fight Sentinels or serve as ambassadors on behalf of their kind. Some will be lucky just to see another day in a world that hates and fears them. These are the students who should be kept out of harm's way when the Purifiers target the campus. Or when a mutant-stealing monster has an all-too-familiar face. And who better to mentor lovable losers like Eye-Boy, Nature Girl and - wait, Quentin Quire? - through life out of the limelight...than perpetual sidekick Jubilee! But will her Generation X survive the experience?! Collecting GENERATION X (2017) #1-5. Rated T+

Adapted by Hugo-nominated author Daniel Abraham and artist Rafa Lopez, this graphic novel stays faithful to Martin's original dark vision, immersing the reader in the tortures and joys of vampire society. Available in softcover and hardcover formats, with illustrated covers by Felipe Massafera (Alan Moore's LIGHT OF THY COUNTENANCE).
