Political intrigues are hinted at but never really fully embraced as a story line. Gaiman is known for his Sandman comics series and his novels. Something is messing with the weather, there is a plot on the Queen’s life and a great treasure (weapon?) is being smuggled from the Holy Land to England. But the X-men are here as are the Fantastic Four, Dr Doom, Black Widow, Peter Parker, Daredevil and a few others. Some characters are a bit more vague than others.
