X-Men Legacy Volume 1 (Issues 208-275) (Marvel Comics, 2008–2014)
X-Men Legacy began as a continuation of X-Men Volume 2, refocusing the series on character-driven storytelling rather than a traditional team book. The early run centers on Professor Charles Xavier as he confronts the consequences of his past decisions, exploring themes of guilt, responsibility, and the long-term cost of his dream for mutantkind.
Following Xavier’s death, the series shifts direction, spotlighting Rogue as the central figure. Under her leadership, the book evolves into a more personal exploration of power, identity, and legacy, blending classic X-Men elements with modern mutant politics.
Running through multiple creative shifts, X-Men Legacy stands out for its introspective tone, deep continuity awareness, and emphasis on how history shapes the present—making it one of Marvel’s most character-focused mutant titles of its era.
