The Third Summers brother. Was he Gambit? Was he Adam-X? No, he was Vulcan. But it was touch and go back then, twenty-five years ago. And X-Men Legends #1 out in February from Marvel Comics will team nineties X-Men creators Fabian Nicieza and Brett Booth to retell that story with all-new stuff – and future issues bringing in Chris Claremont, Larry Hama, Louise Simonson, Peter David and more.
