The official guide to the scientific reality of the X-Men universe. Have you ever wondered how laser beams might actually shoot out of someone's eyes? Or what could cause wings to sprout from the back of a man, allowing him to fly? And if your skeleton was constructed of a flexible but indestructible metal, how would your blood flow and nerves be affected? From the Angel to Wolverine, here is a comprehensive guide to the strange and wonderful powers of the world's most popular mutant superheroes, with a twist! Through discussions with noted geneticists, you'll learn how each of the uncanny X-Men's powers could work in the real world...with the right amount of radiation and a healthy dose of creative imagination.
