We cover Uncanny X-Men 181-183 by Chris Claremont and John Romita Jr. 181- The X-Men return from Battleworld, but to Japan instead of NY. They fight a giant dragon and Wolverine's family gets one little girl bigger. 182- We learn just how much the events of Avengers Annual #10 have changed Rogue's life, as she attempts to save the life of the only man she's ever loved. 183- You demanded it! It's Colossus vs. #Juggs as Kitty Pryde's world is turned upside down. MUSIC OUTRO - "Careless Whisper" - Wham!
