- It is Peter's first day on the job as a detective and even being the captain's son doesn't prepare him for the shock of finding one of Xavier's sociopathic X-Men kids brutally murdered and washed up on the shore. When the police make little effort to solve the crime, reporter Tom Halloway tries to get to the bottom of the affair and interviews a number of colorful underworld characters including imprisoned shrink, Xavier, himself. Inspired by the pulps heroes, Tom puts on a costume and tracks down the X-Men but gets a less than friendly reception.

- Once reporter turned pulp inspired hero, Tom Halloway, convinces the X-Men that he wants to help them find Jean Grey's killer, he takes them back to his base of operations--the abandoned Welfare Penitentiary where he grew up surrounded by criminals (his father was the warden). Tom rescues Anne-Marie, another of Xavier's charges who has amazing powers of mimicry, from the police who want to use her to take down crime boss Unus. Cyclops tracks down one of Jean's other lovers, the boat captain, Logan, who wields a deadly set of claws.
