"In Gifted, Cyclops and Emma Frost re-form the X-Men with the express purpose of "astonishing" the world. But when breaking news regarding the mutant gene unexpectedly hits the airwaves, will it derail their new plans before they even get started? As demand for the "mutant cure" reaches near-riot levels, the X-Men go head-to-head with the enigmatic Ord, with an unexpected ally - and some unexpected adversaries - tipping the scales! In Dangerous, a tragic death at the Xavier Institute reveals a powerful enemy living among the X-Men that they could never have suspected - and no, it's not Magneto. Things heat up in a way none of the X-Men ever dreamed, but will teamwork save the day when they can't even depend on themselves?"

Sixteen million mutants dead... and that was just the beginning! In one bold stroke, writer Grant Morrison (The Invisibles, JLA, Fantastic Four: 1234) propelled the X-Men into the 21st century - masterminding a challenging new direction for Marvel's mutant heroes that began with the destruction of Genosha and never let up. Regarded as the most innovative thinker of the current comic-book renaissance, Morrison proceeded to turn the mutant-hero genre on its ear. Gone were the gaudy spandex costumes - replaced by slick, black leather and an attitude to match.

Everyone around her is overjoyed…but Evie has major doubts about whether she's cut out for motherhood. Before she can dwell on her dilemma, a local women's college reports a string of mysterious "hauntings," and Evie and Aveda are called in to investigate, going undercover as grad students during the creepiest time of the year: Halloween. As she confronts terrifying ghosts and lives out a bizarre version of the grad school life she left behind, Evie can't help but wonder about the road not taken: what would her life be like if she'd stayed here instead of pursuing superheroing with Aveda? And can an overwhelmed pregnant superhero truly have it all? She's about to find out.

"Once upon a time, Jessica Jones was a costumed super-hero, just not a very good one. Her powers were unremarkable compared to the amazing abilities of the costumed icons that populate the Marvel Universe. In a city of Marvels, Jessica Jones never found her niche. Now a chain-smoking, self-destructive alcoholic with a mean inferiority complex, Jones is the owner and sole employee of Alias Investigations - a small, private-investigative firm specializing in super-human cases. In her inaugural arc, Jessica's life immediately becomes expendable when she uncovers the potentially explosive secret of one hero's true identity. But her wit, charm and intelligence just may help her survive through another day"-- Amazon.

Meet Jessica Jones. Once, she was a rising star in the world of super-hero adventurers. She had it all: the superhuman powers, the spandex costume, even an offer of membership in the legendary Avengers. Everything seemed perfect, until a clash against a sadistic criminal turned her dream of a hero's life into a brutal nightmare. Years later, Jones is the chain-smoking, hard-drinking owner of Alias Investigations. Her firm specializes in cases no normal private eye will touch, those requiring an intimate knowledge of the super-hero world. Cases that take Jones deep into the dark underbelly of the Marvel Universe - where former super heroes become helpless pawns of drug pushers, and teenage mutants mysteriously vanish from their small-town homes. As Jones fights to redeem other heroes fallen from grace, can she finally close the book on her own demons? Alias was the inaugural title in Marvel Comics' uncompromising MAX imprint, featuring stories aimed squarely at adult comic-book readers. This volume collects the complete 28-issue series by Brian Michael Bendis and Michael Gaydos, plus the one-shot What If Jessica Jones Had Joined the Avengers? - enhanced by a bounty of all-new, behind-the-scenes bonus material. Nominated for the prestigious Eisner Award, and the recipient of numerous other awards and critical accolades, Alias is a modern milestone in Marvel Comics history.
