Marvel Comic is about to launch an explosive new X-Men crossover series and today, they’re giving fans a look at the covers for the final chapters.
What’s Happening:
- X OF SWORDS, the massive X-Men crossover tying into each and every X-Men title, kicks off next month!
- By November, this sprawling story will reach a senses-shattering conclusion, and the covers for these exciting final chapters were unveiled today.
- X OF SWORDS will continue writer Jonathan Hickman’s grand vision for the X-Men that began last year in the hit series, House of X and Powers of X.
- Hickman and Excalibur writer Tini Howard join every current X-Men writer—Gerry Duggan, Benjamin Percy, Ed Brisson, Zeb Wells, Leah Williams, and Vita Ayala—to deliver the next great X-Men milestone.
- Featuring breathtaking art by Leinil Francis Yu, Carmen Carnero, Pepe Larraz, Stefano Caselli, Joshua Cassara, Mahmud Asrar, Phil Noto, and more, X OF SWORDS will be an unforgettable saga that will go alongside classic crossovers like The Mutant Massacre, Age of Apocalypse, and Messiah Complex in X-Men history.
What They’re Saying:
- X-Men Editor Jordan D. White: “X OF SWORDS is by far the biggest story we've done since HOUSE OF X, with every series coming together to tell one tale. It's crazy, it's epic, it's fun, it's tragic…you're gonna love it! I know I do.”
