The world of the X-Men continues to be shook to its core in February by Fall of the House of X

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.

Learn more about this pivotal turning point in X-Men history with a sneak peek at what’s to come in February.
