This October, “Age of Revelation” takes the Marvel Universe 10 years into a future where the world has been reshaped by Apocalypse’s heir, Doug Ramsey AKA Revelation!
Announced last week, Age of Revelation #0, a surprise prelude issue, will be available at select retailers later this week and additional copies can be ordered now. Age of Revelation officially begins this October in Age of Revelation Overture #1, a one-shot by current X-Men creative team, writer Jed MacKay and artist Ryan Stegman. Following that, “Age of Revelation” continues in bold new titles, including an evolution of the entire current X-Men line. Today, fans can learn about the first of these new series, all hitting stands on October 8.
The world is beholden to the will of REVELATION! Doug Ramsey commands Earth with his voice, creating the Revelation Territories, a new mutant utopia built on an insidious lie. Beneath the surface, rebellion brews and as a ragtag X-Men team strikes from the shadows, Revelation faces threats from within. Welcome to the AGE OF REVELATION!
The new launches include Amazing X-Men, a flagship X-title introducing the team of X-Men leading the resistance against Revelation; Laura Kinney: Sabretooth, a new solo series that sees Laura Kinney take on the mantle of Sabretooth; Binary, a cosmic series starring the power of the Phoenix; Longshots, a series following various characters trapped in a twisted competition by Mojo; and World of Revelation, an anthology one-shot that explores Age of Revelation’s impact on the wider Marvel Universe, featuring the fate of the Fantastic Four, the end of the Young Avengers, and the gaze of Apocalypse. Read on to learn more!
