We’re heading into week 4 of the Fall of X. Mutants are dead, missing, on the run or, in a few cases, running sneak attacks on Orchis and then disappearing into the night. Psylocke and Penance are, apparently, two of those mutants. How did they start working as a pair? Which one is the by-the-book stickler, and which one is the loose cannon who plays by her own rules? Who invited Quicksilver to play? I HAVE SO MANY QUESTIONS!
Some of those questions may be answered in Gerry Duggan and Javier Garron’s Uncanny Avengers #1, out next week. Check out our exclusive preview, and get the basic deets below.
Y’ever wonder if there are two Gerry Duggans?

The FALL OF X calls for the return of the Avengers’ Unity Squad! Innocent people and world leaders are dead after simultaneous attacks on the U.S. and Krakoan governments, and that means one thing: It’s time for a new squad of Avengers. False-flag attacks meant to whip up anti-mutant hysteria are unfolding, and hey, some of Steve Rogers’ best friends are mutants. Your new unity squad is: Captain America, Rogue, Deadpool, Quicksilver, Psylocke and Monet. They must solve the mystery of who the new, murderous Captain Krakoa is – and stop his team of killers from igniting the fires of a new world war. PLUS: A bonus page written by Jonathan Hickman – WHO ARE THE G.O.D.S.?
