Essential X-Men

Last update: 29/08/2010

They are mutants; people born with genetically enhanced abilities that set them apart from the rest of humanity. Mutants have become a cause of public hysteria around the world, with many viewing them as a threat to the human-race; the evolutonary replacements for homo sapiens. Some mutants use their skills for personal gain, others want to rule over humanity. Professo Xavier, however, dreams of a future where humans and mutants may live together peacefully.
