Story Notes:
This issue features the first appearance of Phoenix II as well as Freedom Force. The story also features a holocaust survivor reunion in Washington D.C. and leads to the Trial of Magneto.
The story begins with Rachel Summers (the alternate reality daughter of Jean Grey and Cyclops) contemplating how to reveal her parentage to Cyclops. At the same time it is revealed that Professor X is dying. Meanwhile, Mystique makes a deal with the federal government to reform the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants as a superhero team under the complete control of the U.S. Government in exchange for amnesty. The new team is called Freedom Force, which is then tasked to bring Magneto to trial.
Rachel Summers travels to Jean Grey’s parents house and breaks in when the house is empty. She is taunted by the Phoenix Force. As she encounters the holomatrix globe, the full power of the Phoenix is released. She embraces it as a force for good and becomes Phoenix II.
Back in Washington D.C., Kitty Pryde (Shadowcat) attends the Washington National Holocaust Memorial and encounters Magneto. Magneto’s Jewish origins are alluded to here but not specifically stated.
The conference is interupted by Freedom Force and a battle with the X-Men ensue. Ultimately, Magneto offers himself up to stand trial.
