Uncanny X-Men by Gail Simone Vol. 3: Murder Me, Mutina
by Gail Simone
Beloved author Gail Simone continues her exciting run on Uncanny X-Men, with classic members like Rogue, Gambit, Nightcrawler, and Wolverine teaching a new group of mutants known as the Outliers how to fight the good fight! When a brilliant but exploitative Hollywood director makes a surprise-hit horror film featuring a serial-killing mutant girl, there are protests at theaters around the country and a rise in anti-mutant violence in those same communities. But is it just a movie, or is something much more insidious going on? Things are looking up when, for the first time in New Orleans history, the city declares a Mutant Appreciation Day festival and street fair, with all the music, food and fun the city is famous for. If the Hellfire Gala is filet mignon, this is corn dogs and lemonade. But are all mutants okay with this attempt at bridging the gap, or are sinister forces lurking behind the Tilt-A-Whirl? COLLECTING: Uncanny X-Men (2024) 17-21
