Moira MacTaggert unwittingly awakens Apocalypse from his slumber after thousands of years. Forming a new quartet of Horsemen to be his agents—including a bitter Magneto, who went on to start a family only for them to be murdered, Angel, Storm, and Psylocke—Apocalypse plans to reforge his ancient empire anew. Charles and Raven, as well as the next generation of mutant students they’re training to be X-Men—Nightcrawler, Quicksilver, Cyclops, and a young Jean Grey—put a stop to Apocalypse’s plans, convincing Magneto and Storm to change sides in the process. Apocalypse is defeated, but only after Jean taps into a strange, fiery power she had no idea was at her disposal. (X-Men: Apocalypse)
