New on Marvel Unlimited: The deals have been made. Mutantkind is safe on Krakoa. As the Reign of X continues, what are the wants of the mutants who have everything? X-CORP (2021) #1 has these answers and more.

At the forefront of the mutants’ global commerce is X-CORPORATION, headed by CXOs Monet St. Croix, AKA Penance, and Warren Worthington III, AKA Angel, a duo as cutthroat and ruthless in the boardroom as they are on a battlefield. But X-Corp needs more than just its figureheads. As Monet sets out to staff their team with some of the brightest and most deviant minds in mutantkind, Warren finds himself in a tense meeting with one of Krakoa’s first allies who wants to know the truth: On Angel’s wings, will X-Corp crash or soar?
