HERE COMES THE HARVEST

The island-nation of Krakoa was founded under the idea of mutant sovereignty and is governed by the collective known as The Quiet Council. The departure of Magneto has left a seat open and many mutants, including Selene Gallio, have been vying for the spot. However, her campaign for the position was unsuccessful as Hope Summers put forward her own name for candidacy. A poor winner and an even worse loser. Selene has made her displeasure at this decision well-known…Meanwhile, amid the chaos, Sinister continues to scheme.

PART TWO: ALL MANKIND'S WOES

EMERGENCY COUNCIL MEETING! Magneto leaving the council means big shoes need to be filled. Selene demonstrating her foot size by crushing the whole island beneath it is unorthodox, yet compelling. Can the Quiet Council resist?

About IMMORTAL X-MEN

IMMORTAL X-MEN will focus on the current leaders of mutantkind known as The Quiet Council in an X-Men series ripe with backstabbing, shady alliances, and chilling revelations that will put everything you thought you knew about Krakoa’s future into question! Already proven to be a master of the mutant mythos on books like UNCANNY X-MEN and GENERATION HOPE, Gillen makes his grand return to the franchise with an ambitious series unlike anything that’s come before in X-Men history. And fresh off his work on TRIAL OF MAGNETO, Lucas Werneck is ready to use his acclaimed talents to bring all the high-stakes action, heated clashes, and intense DRAMA to life in this first-of-its-kind X-Men title. 

The Quiet Council rules the Krakoan age, for better... or worse. Now, shaken by INFERNO and X LIVES OF WOLVERINE/X DEATHS OF WOLVERINE, they strive to hold together—no matter how much they want to tear each other apart. Take a seat in the room where it happens. “It” being “the most powerful people on Earth deciding the fate of the whole planet.” Prepare for sinister secrets to be revealed and learn that some secrets are more sinister than others… 

Professor X. Emma Frost. Destiny. Mystique. Storm. Nightcrawler. Kate Pryde. Colossus. Sebastian Shaw. Exodus. Mister Sinister. Each of them has their own vision for Krakoa and they’re willing to do whatever it takes to achieve it.  Will mutantkind survive the experience?

AXE: Judgement Day: OF DEVIATION AND MUTATION

Featuring stories by an all-star lineup of creators including writers Kieron Gillen and Gerry Duggan and artist Dustin Weaver, FREE COMIC BOOK DAY: AVENGERS/X-MEN #1 will lay the groundwork for an event that will erupt across the Marvel Universe in 2022 and drastically alter the relationship between Earth's Mightiest Heroes and mutantkind.

X-MEN: LET'S TALK ABOUT KRAKOA.

The island-nation of Krakoa was founded under the idea of mutant sovereignty with the goal of giving mutants a place to flourish without fear of persecution. The fledgling nation made a splash on the world stage when it began exporting Krakoan medicine that was leaps and bounds beyond other medical treatments- leading to phenomenal recoveries and revolutionizing the healthcare market. But unknown to the rest of the world. Krakoa harbored an even more miraculous secret: mutant resurrection. No mutant has to die ever again.
