3K’s Counter-Attack Stuns the X-Men and Fantastic Four seek to Save Magneto’s Life in DNX this October

This October, things go from bad to worse for the X-Men and the Fantastic Four in their battle against the villainous group 3K! While Cyclops’ team engages 3K above the skies of Philadelphia to prevent the release of the X-Virus and the emergence of a dark future, the Fantastic Four have mysteriously forgotten their own identities (and how their powers work!) while on their own quest to save the master of magnetism, Magneto. As if that’s not enough trouble, the X-Men’s base in Alaska comes under attack with John Greycrow left alone to defend it and Psylocke stalks a mysterious monster on a dangerous solo mission that promises to reveal dark secrets. It’s all taking place across new issues of DNX, Fantastic Four, and X-Men this October.

In DNX #3, 3K’s counterstroke has shocked the X-Men and Philadelphia is no less in the shadow of disaster as the Chairman’s spoilsport plan comes into effect! The X-Men must look to the least of their number while the Fantastic Four fight against time to deliver the data that can save the day. From writer Jed Mackay, art by Federico Vicentini, and cover by Kaare Andrews, it arrives October 14.

In X-Men #39, enemies put their sights on the X-Men’s home base — the Factory, in Alaska. But the Factory is not undefended…and John Greycrow is an army unto himself! From writer Jed Mackay, art by Netho Diaz, and cover by Tony S. Daniel, it arrives October 14.

In X-Men #40, alone on what could be a flying tomb, Psylocke stalks a mysterious monster on a solo mission for answers. But the answers she finds may raise only further questions. From writer Jed Mackay and art and cover by Tony S. Daniel, it arrives October 28.

In Fantastic Four #18, The Fantastic Four are lost, with no memory of who they are or why they’re there — but now they know they need to find out, fast —because Magneto’s life hangs in the balance. But without identities — or a clear understanding of their powers — the FF are as much a danger to themselves as they are their opponents. from writer Ryan North, art by Vincenzo Carratù, and cover by Giuseppi Camuncoli, it arrives October 28.

Check out the main covers for DNX #3, Fantastic Four #18, X-Men #39 and #40 below and stay tuned for more reveals about DNX in the weeks ahead. Preorder the main series and tie-in issues at your local comic shop today and look for the DNX #1 True Believers Blind Bags, featuring exclusive covers not available for individual purchase, in shops on September 2.

Johnny Storm has had some incredibly bad ideas in his time, but every once in a while he also has an incredibly good idea too. Unfortunately, it’s hard to tell which is which until you’re neck-deep in their consequences, and by then it’s usually too late. We mention this only because in this issue, Johnny convinces his sister Sue to go along with a scheme to use her powers to turn the flesh of his skull invisible, so that when he flames on he can pass himself off as the Ghost Rider and settle some old scores. What could possibly go wrong? It’s a Johnny-and-Sue adventure you won’t soon forget!

Aliens have invaded Earth and been rebuffed by the Fantastic Four many a time before, and finally, one of them got wise and invaded Earth where the FF couldn’t defend it: They’re attacking our world in the past, in ANCIENT ROME. Johnny and Reed are the only two who make it back in time before all of history is erased, but it’s okay! As long as they can defend Earth, push the aliens back AND reset history to how it once was, everything should be fine, right? Good thing that, when left alone, Johnny and Reed don’t get into ANY sort of problems on the regular. Plus: Reed stretches in a new way in this one! He does that in a lot of our issues, but this one is particularly fun.

THE INVINCIBLE WOMAN: FINALE! The Invincible Woman has made it to Earth, which is already fending off an invasion it can’t win. If humanity doesn’t win this fight, it won’t win any of them ever again. There’s still the tiniest sliver of hope — if the Fantastic Four and S.H.I.E.L.D. can work together. But will it even be enough? And if the Invincible Woman can best even Susan Storm, then who can stand against her malice? Will Earth survive? Will Galactus? And if they do — at what cost? The big finale of the Invincible Woman arc — it all ends here with a bang!
