X-Men: The Last Stand (2006)

A mutant “cure” divides the X-Men as Jean Grey returns with destructive Phoenix power. Its closest comic relationship is two major arcs combined, with the feature reshaping that material for the screen.

Comics behind the movie

X-Men: The Last Stand draws together recognisable comic-story material and reshapes it for a self-contained feature-film narrative. Start with Uncanny X-Men #101–108 and #129–137 (Dark Phoenix Saga), then compare it with Astonishing X-Men #1–6 (Gifted). Reading the references alongside the movie makes it easier to see what the filmmakers retained, combined or reinvented for the screen.
