cover by kevin sharpe. chris claremont/kevin sharpe. ? THE SCOOP: Now you've got two chances to get X-Treme... with the ongoing series, and with this all-new four-part adventure! ? THE STORY: Rogue is a mainstay of the X-Treme team, as she was of the X-Men before them. But she's also a woman in trouble, her life and sanity gravely threatened by the very power that makes her so valuable as a hero. Now, her power has mutated: like her name itself, it's gone "rogue." The residual psyches that she once absorbed ? which at one time faded away ? are stronger, battling hers for dominance. Worse, all those stolen powers keep manifesting themselves on a random basis that's totally out of her control. As if that wasn't bad enough, she's also having nightmares, recurring images of herself in flight from a pack of sentient dinosaurs. To help her, the X-Treme team has to divine the meaning and source of her dreams ? which in turn leads them to answer a cry for help so stark and desperate that it cannot be ignored. Thus begins a journey that will take these mutant heroes to the bottom of the world ? and to the dawn of time itself! For in a hidden corner of the globe, the great dinosaurs of the Jurassic and Cretaceous ages still rule ? and some of the X-Men's oldest and most malevolent foes lie in wait to destroy them! There, in the Savage Land, the very best among the team will be confronted by the very worst that lies hidden in their souls, and as a result be forced to reassess what it means to be a hero. And possibly, a human being. Guest-starring (straight from his current role in NEW X-MEN): the Beast! ? THE CREATORS: Mr. X-TREME X-MEN himself, Chris Claremont helms this rip-roaring tale, joined by penciler Kevin Sharpe (Mystic)! ? THE FORMAT: Each chapter of this four-issue series will be 32 pages, with ads. Cover price $2.99.
