Uncanny X-Men, Vol. 1 – Issue 515

A meeting of senior X-Men members, Professor X and Namor in which they discuss the current set-up of Utopia and the needs for the residents of their haven is interrupted by Psylocke who reports that Doctor Takiguchi has passed away. The Beast and the X-Club grieve for their dead friend and plan funeral arrangements, while Cyclops discusses the current situation with Xavier, before going to San Francisco for an impromptu meeting with Mayor Sadie Sinclair, in which they also discuss current goings-ons. Sadie assures Cyclops that the X-Men and the other mutants are not wanted criminals as far as she knows. The White Queen and Danger return to the X-Men’s old HQ, Graymalkin Industries, where the White Queen explains that several dangerous mutants are still held in prison cells, and discusses their rehabilitation with Danger. Later, Doctor Takiguchi is cremated in an incinerator and the Beast conducts his funeral. Cyclops and the White Queen discuss her current “ice queen” attitude and the White Queen explains that it is due to having part of the Void inside her and being stuck in her diamond form, when suddenly, Magneto arrives! Meanwhile, at a diner somewhere out west, Scalphunter is attacked and kidnapped by a group of 5 apparent super-powered beings.
