The clock marks two in the afternoon on a storm-lashed Friday in May 2026. Beyond the mansion windows, thunderheads churn and rain streaks the glass. Deep underground, in the resonant quiet of the Cerebro chamber, Charles Xavier is motionless in his wheelchair. The machine’s soft hum vibrates through the air, amplifying the reach of his mind. He closes his eyes, and his consciousness unfurls across the world, a psychic net cast over millions of thoughts, searching. His body may seem fragile, but the scale of his mental power is immense—a force that draws both respect and dread.
