Plot[]
The series follows Wolverine's founding of a new haven for young and new mutants, The Jean Grey School for Higher Learning, named in honor of one of the most brave X-Men - Jean Grey. Wolverine starts a job as the headmaster for the school, even giving a tour to Charles Xavier on the new school. Wolverine is decided to find a way to give young mutants a chance to live as normal kids, as students, not as soldiers. And so, Wolverine ensembles the help of fellow X-Men recruiting them as teachers for the new school while also giving mutants like Toad a second chance at doing something worthwhile - as a janitor. Giving the young mutants a normal life will not be easy as treats to mutantkind never stop and even if Wolverine does not want the students to be treated as soldiers, their survival will depend on hard choices that can scar them for life.
