"Xavier has urgent news, gleaned from Master Mold¹s old data core. The flashpoint of the war can be narrowed down to one incident the theft of Magneto¹s helmet by a mutant thief working for Senator Kelly Gambit.
"As Wolverine and Nightcrawler rush to try and prevent this, Gambit has landed on Genosha and gained Magneto's trust. In the process, he has attracted an ardent admirer in Magneto's youngest daughter Lorna. But Lorna has fallen for a dangerous man, for while Gambit plays his part perfectly, the Cajun thief always hides his true intentions."
