The Next Great X-Men Crossover Arrives This Summer

MUTANT MASSACRE. AGE OF APOCALYPSE. MESSIAH COMPLEX. Some of the most iconic X-Men stories ever told have been realized as large-scale crossovers. And this longstanding tradition will continue this summer with X OF SWORDS.

Just announced to an enthusiastic crowd at C2E2's X-Men Panel, X OF SWORDS will be a 15-part crossover tying into your favorite X-titles. Led by Head of X Jonathan Hickman, this sprawling saga will find the mutants of Krakoa facing their biggest challenge yet.

Threatened by powerful forces from the unknown, ten mutants will rise up to defend their home. Arming themselves with legendary blades both new and familiar, mutantkind will finally meet its mystical destiny. Impacting the entire X-Men franchise and setting the stage for the future of mutantkind, X OF SWORDS will be a modern X-Men epic that both longtime and new X-Men fans can't miss.

Last year, Jonathan Hickman reshaped the world of the X-Men with the top-selling HOUSE OF X and POWERS OF X. Since then, the X-Men titles have become of the talk of the industry, each telling exhilarating stories set in this exciting new era. Don’t miss the next chapter in Hickman’s grand vision for Marvel’s mutants when X OF SWORDS kicks off in July!
