Marvel Digital Holiday Special

Summary

Synopsis 1st Story: If the Fates Allow... As Ororo Munroe (aka the X-Men''s Storm) flies from the X-Men''s old home in Westchester, New York, through the hometown of deceased veteran X-Man Kitty Pryde in Chicago, Illinois, and finally arrives at the X-Men''s new home in San Francisco, California, she reminisces through the good and the bad of recent times as she heads home to her family. She is greeted by her teammate Wolverine as the two observe the unremarkable sight of mutants and humans alike celebrating the holidays together--peacefully. The nice moment is interrupted as perpetual jokester Bobby Drake (aka Iceman) slides past the pair and throws a snowball at Wolverine. The two proceed to catch up on Colossus, Kitty Pryde''s long-term love interest. Wolverine remarks that he''s trying his best to stay strong and positive during the holidays as are several other X-Men who have close friends missing. As other X-Men help in the festivities, Cyclops thinks of his time-displaced son Cable (who, as chronicled in his eponymous solo title, has been jumping between future realities evading Bishop in an effort to protect the first born mutant). During these solemn and simultaneously happy times, Dazzler sings a Christmas tune for the crowd. As Dazzler''s mutant powers activate and a glowing light shines brightly from the stage, Storm remarks that the light is an important reminder to keep faith that families will always be reunited again...
