Stories

Chapter 3: Reign · 22 pages
Magneto takes over the island nation of Genosha but Xavier loses the use of his legs in the struggle. Magneto tries to broaden the mutant power base of his new domain by making allies of the Inhumans, the Atlanteans and the Wakandans. When American politician Graydon Creed begins spouting off against mutants, Magneto sends Sabretooth to kill him. In retaliation, Trask sends Bucky, Nuke and Mimic to Genosha to kill Magneto and bring his reign to an end. During the infiltration, Winter Soldier is confronted by Xavier and stabs him in the side.

Publisher’s description

See them here, the House Of M versions of the Sub-Mariner…Black Bolt…Sabretooth…and Bucky! Magneto solidifies his power base, forming tenuous alliances with other world leaders, including the Sub-Mariner and Black Bolt! But Professor Xavier objects to some of Magneto's tactics--and especially to his personal assassin, Sabretooth! As the human-mutant war intensifies, will the conflict between Xavier and Magneto destroy the mutant alliance from within? Or will its end come at the hands of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s elite strike force--led by Captain America's former partner, the deadliest man alive...Bucky Barnes?
