This January, two interconnected series will close out the X-Men’s revolutionary Krakoa era: Gerry Duggan and Lucas Werneck’s "Fall of the House of X" and Kieron Gillen and R.B. Silva’s "Rise of the Powers of X.” These five-issue limited series will present the final battle of Krakoa and see the fate of mutantkind decided in a war across space and time.
- The mythos-shattering storytelling of "Fall of the House of X" and "Rise of the Powers of X” will also impact the current “X-Men” ongoing series where the team finally take the fight to the most critical threat to mutantkind, Nimrod.
- Special limited series like the recently announced “Cable,” “Dead X-Men,” and “Resurrection of Magneto,” will tell of the vital missions and epic quests spinning out of "Fall of the House of X" and "Rise of the Powers of X.”
- And the frontlines of Krakoa’s last stand are never deadlier than in the pages of “X-Force” which gears up for its milestone 50th issue and the conclusion of Krakoa with a charactering-redefining turn for X-Men icon Beast.
- Today, learn more about this pivotal turning point in X-Men history with a sneak peek at what’s to come in these five titles in February.
