Starting in October, Age of Revelation transforms the Marvel Universe, taking it 10 years into a future where a new mutant utopia created by Apocalypse's heir, Doug Ramsey a.k.a. Revelation, threatens to overtake all of Earth.
All this week, we'll be taking you into the Age of Revelation with announcements for new series set in this bold new storytelling landscape, including exciting status quo changes for Spider-Man, Wolverine, and more heroes as they navigate a world ravaged by Revelation's unstoppable conquest.
Age of Revelation #0, a surprise prelude issue to the event, will be available at select retailers later this week, and additional copies can be ordered now. Age of Revelation officially begins on October 1 in Age of Revelation Overture #1, a one-shot by the current X-Men creative team, writer Jed MacKay and artist Ryan Stegman.
The final wave of new launches include Expatriate X-Men, a next generation X-Men team who directly opposes Revelation’s rule; Cloak or Dagger, a bold twist on the iconic duo currently experiencing a surge in popularity thanks to Marvel Rivals; Undeadpool, which sees Deadpool consumed by an insatiable hunger for mutantkind; and X-Vengers, a new Avengers squad led by Dani Moonstar, featuring classic members transformed into mutants.
We also have details on Unbreakable X-Men, a flagship X-Men title featuring Gambit and much of the X-Men of Haven House, including the Outliers and the all-new Spider-Girl; Rogue Storm, revealing the dark fate of Earth’s Mightiest Mutant; Iron & Frost, centered around Emma Frost and Tony Stark; and Sinister's Six, starring a team of deadly mutants led by Mr. Sinister.
Here's a first look at what's to come from the Age of Revelation event later this year.
UNITED BY WAR! X YEARS LATER, like the fallen and reassembled United States, the new team of Ms. Marvel, Bronze, Melee and Rift rises! They have seized control of the Mississippi River waters that divide mutantkind from the rest of humanity. Feared and powerful, their guerrilla tactics keep them in control – until a high-stakes mission to extract a valuable asset threatens to tear them apart. Can they hold together when everything’s on the line?
