Story Title: Showdown!
By: Chris Claremont
Artists: John Byrne, Terry Austin & Bob Layton
Synopsis: Television coverage reports on another in a series of daring raids on research facilities throughout New Zealand and Australia by Magneto. He destroys the latest base but the authorities refuse to speculate on what he has actually stolen. Charles Xavier is in Kirinos with Lilandra and wonders why he has lost telepathic contact with his students. Meanwhile, underneath an Antarctic volcano, Nanny cares for her charges as Storm attempts to free herself using techniques learned as a child. Her plan is seemingly thwarted however by Nanny. Later, aboard Asteroid M, Magneto is alerted to a problem in his Antarctic base and flies there, only to find the place dark and Nanny out of control. Storm’s second attempt to free herself and her comrades has succeeded and the team attacks Magneto, with Cyclops telepathically organizing them through Phoenix. They keep him occupied with hit and run tactics, so as not to allow him to utilize his powers, but, when the control center is smashed, the whole complex begins to crumble. Lava begins to seep in through the cracks. Magneto manages to free himself and heads away, as Phoenix and Beast also make it to the freezing surface, where a blizzard rages. The complex explodes behind them. Jean, however, is exhausted and Hank seems to have very few options available to him.
