It's a lucky seventh volume chock full of memorable X-Men moments by the classic creator combo of Claremont and Cockrum!
First up, Kitty's leaving the School For Gifted Youngsters. Her new academic destination? The Massachusetts Academy, run by none other than Emma Frost, the Hellfire Club's White Queen-setting up the inevitable showdown between the X-Men and Sebastian Shaw's minions, with a classic, no-holds-barred, Storm/Emma catfight in the clouds! Next, it's the immortal "Kitty's Fairy Tale," a storybook fantasy that introduced Kitty's loyal pet dragon, the lovable Lockheed!
Then, the first half of the all-time great "Brood Saga," with four-issues of space operatics starring the Starjammers, the Shi'Ar, and those disgusting parasites from beyond the outer limits, the Brood! Topping off this marvelous mutant Masterworks is the return of Rogue and Mystique's Evil Mutants and the coming of Dracula in a tale only Bill Sienkiewicz could draw!
Throw in a double-sized annual team-up with the X-Men and Fantastic Four combining forces against the Badoon, and, just because we love ya, Avengers Annual #10, featuring the first appearance of Rogue and her pivotal meeting with Ms. Marvel, and this is indeed the most masterful way to start off a blockbuster new year of MARVEL MASTERWORKS!
Hardcover, 304 pages, full color.

When you've got amazing stories by Chris Claremont, excellent artwork by Dave Cockrum and the astonishing debut of fanfavorite Paul Smith, what you have is a mutant masterwork! It starts off with an adventure in Belasco's mysterious Limbo realm that leaves Colossus' little sister, Illyana Rasputin, aged from child to teenager in a moment. Then comes a classic tale of Professor X and Magneto in their younger days, before their philosophical fallout, teamed up to take down Baron Strucker and Hydra. But the real action is the conclusion of the epic Brood Saga! Teamed with the Starjammers and Shi'ar, the X-Men find themselves fighting in an all-out war for survival against the sleaziest parasites in outer space. There's also the debut of Carol Danvers as Binary, the return of Dracula and an appearance by the New Mutants.
And to top it off, we're including the long-demanded Wolverine and Angel backup stories from MARVEL TREASURY EDITION #26-27, and the Kitty Pryde classic from SPECIAL EDITION X-MEN #1!
