Stories

The Emperor of the Realm of Grief · 22 pages
Elektra and Wolverine go to Gateway to get more information on Onslaught. Gateway shows them the moment when Xavier shut off Magneto's brain (after he ripped all of the adamantium out of Wolverine) and the seed was planted for Onslaught to be born.

Publisher’s description

The origin of Onslaught revealed! How is it that Professor X became host of this dangerous psychic entity? And how was Magneto involved in the transfer? All is explained through Wolverine’s flashbacks, and first-hand narrative, in this Onslaught-centric issue.
