"Third Genesis" Charles Xavier is gone, whisked away to the far side of the universe by the Shi'Ar Empire (see Uncanny X-Men #200), but his dream is not dead. His original X-Men, Cyclops, Angel, Beast, Ice Man, and the recently resurrected Jean Grey, have reunited as the super-group called X-Factor to see his dream of mutants and humans co-existing in peace realized and brought to fruition.
