Vol. 93 - Cable & X-Man: The Man in the Mirror (optional)
[The X-Man book is mostly irrelevant to the X-teams but since he will play a part in Onslaught, I feel the need to give context for his role, hence this volume. I used only the Blaquesmith pages from the first X-Man issues. Didn't feel like the X-Man stories were important, and they're really bad tbh.]
