To Have and Have Not

The X-Men have been poisoned and don't have long to live. Now the only two immune to the poison, Wolverine and Rogue, must race against the clock to save the team. But when push comes to shove can Wolverine trust the former member of the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants to watch his back? Will Viper and the Silver Samurai let them live long enough to find out. Plus, Storm and Yukio's friendship grows. Storm gets a new look and Mariko informs Wolverine of a decision that will haunt him for years to come.
