Indexer Notes
Although packaged as part of the Young Gods series, this is an X-Men story; Windsor-Smith was under contract with Marvel to produce a third Lifedeath story for Uncanny X-Men, apparently completed the work, but Marvel never bought it; Adastra in the story is really Storm, complete with mohawk, as she returns to the African village she helped out in Uncanny X-Men #198; Only the names have been changed.
