Gathered together by Professor Charles Xavier to protect a world that fears and hates them, the X-Men had fought many battles, been on adventures that spanned galaxies, grappled enemies of limitless might, but none of this could prepare them for the most shocking struggle they would ever face.

One of their own members, Jean Grey, has gained power beyond all comprehension, and that power has corrupted her absolutely! Now they must decide if the life of the woman they cherish is worth the existence of the entire universe!

The Dark Phoenix Saga is considered one of the classic story arcs in comic book history and to this day is still heavily referenced. It is also one of the storylines that helped make Uncanny X-Men one of the most popular titles in the 1980s.

It was alluded to in the movie X2: X-Men United and X-Men: The Last Stand contained several elements from the saga.
