This X-Vengers #3 variant cover by Edwin Galmon shows half of the original class of New Mutants – Cannonball, Sunspot, Dani Moonstar and Doug Ramsey/Revelation – as they were in happier days and as they are now. Three hardened warriors taking the fight to a former teammate gone mad with power. But it begs the…

So much for “now and forever,” huh? This preview of next week’s Binary #2, part of the ongoing “Age of Revelation” event, appears to show Jean Grey sacrificing herself – as she does – to stop the spread of the X-Virus beyond Earth. Sounds right. All she ever did was die on us. But wait,…
It’s time to wrap up the first month of the future!

So we’re just eating Warlocks now? We wondered in this week’s Age of Revelation roundup where Doug Ramsey’s selfsoulfriend is, and he (or a version of him or another Technarch being; who’s to say, really?) appears to show up in this comic, where he is unceremoniously killed by Hellcat and then shown being eaten by…

We’ve met a lot of new kids during the Age of Revelation. Omega Kids. Elbecca the Chorister. Temper and Ransom’s baby. Kids who theoretically weren’t even born in the present of the X-books. But the fact of the matter is, we’re still getting to know the kids we met during “From the Ashes,” which was…

Well, it looks like Fabian Cortez is back to one, eh? X-villainy’s best obsequious twit is back and doing his fawning lackey who will betray you at the first opportunity schtick, using his ability to boost others’ mutant power to cozy up to yet another big bad. So much for the come-to-Jesus moment he seemed…
X years later, with Earth’s gods gone, only Ororo Munroe, the mutant god of storms, remains. She is a goddess driven mad by dark magic and grief. Now, as Storm threatens to freeze the world into a new Ice Age, Rogue leads a team of killers and legends — Gateway, Iceman, Fantomex, Spiral and Warpath….

As a ragtag X-Men team strikes from the shadows, Revelation faces threats from within. X-Men: Age of Revelation Overture #1 is written by Jed…
