Last month at San Diego Comic-Con, Marvel dropped info on most of the second month of its upcoming Age of Revelation event, in which Doug Ramsey, the heir of Apocalypse called Revelation, remakes the world in his image X years in the future.
But missing from that set were the second issues of Binary, which carries on plots from the current Phoenix series, and Rogue Storm, which carries on plots from Storm and Uncanny X-Men. Both comics are due out in November.
Marvel solicited info on those two books Friday, teasing bad blood between Ororo Munroe and the Raven-LeBeaus and a fight between the Phoenix-powered Binary and a threat from her past.

Last month, Marvel Comics kicked off San Diego Comic-Con with the second issue reveals of upcoming Age of Revelation titles, all on sale this November. Today, fans can learn about the two titles still to be revealed—BINARY and ROGUE STORM!
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.
The event takes place 10 years into the future where the world has been reshaped by the heir of Apocalypse, Doug Ramsey, A.K.A. Revelation! He and his followers hold power in the Revelation Territories, a new mutant utopia, while the rest of the Earth is transformed and ravaged by the mysterious X-Virus. But the cracks are beginning to show and the lie that this land was built upon stirs the flames of rebellion.
Across this new storytelling landscape, Revelation’s conquest shattered destinies and upended the lives of your favorite heroes, including two of the most powerful X-Men. What fate befell Jean Grey? What drove Storm to madness? Read on to learn what awaits in two of Age of Revelation’s most anticipated series: BINARY, written by current Phoenix scribe Stephanie Phillips and drawn by Giada Belviso; and ROGUE STORM, written by current Storm scribe Murewa Ayodele and drawn by Roland Boschi.

And now…a face from the past, determined to bring chaos and destruction that will challenge even the incredible might of the Phoenix!

CHAPTER TWO: BEST SERVED COLD!
X YEARS LATER, many secret events have taken place among the mutants of the world – including the one that changed Gambit and Rogue’s marriage forever. As Storm embarks on her quest to destroy Eegun, the devourer of Sorcerers Supreme, Gambit has a score to settle with Storm…for the fate of his marriage. But what is the fate of the mystical world compared to the fate of two mutants’ marriage? Well, Storm and Gambit will have to figure out the answer to that question on the dirt road to hell and carnage.
