Cyclops and Madelyne Pryor are transporting a group of Canadian scientists to the Artic, when their plane is attacked by a mysterious force. Rachel Summers proposes an X-Men/Alpha Flight team-up, to save Cyclops, Madelyne, and the missing Canadians. The X-Men zip up their parkas as they head to the Canadian wilderness!
