| The flagship Marvel Comics superhero team returns, thanks to the record-setting success of X-Men. The first film hints strongly at a storyline at least partially devoted to Wolverine's search for answers about his mysterious past. Beyond that, most speculation centers on which foes Professor X and his superpowered prot�g�s will face next: Ian McKellen is contractually obligated to reprise his role as Magneto "under certain conditions." A showdown with the Sentinels, mutant-seeking killer robots created by the U.S. government to function as peacekeepers between humanity and "homo sapiens superior," is another much-discussed possibility. | ||||||||||||
