Marvel Comics has revealed new details surrounding Steve Foxe and Jonas Scharf’s Dark X-Men #2. Out in comic shops on September 20th, the all-new saga focuses on a “twisted” group of mutants led by Madelyne Pryor. For more details on Dark X-Men, don’t miss X-Men Monday #206.
“Picking up Madelyne Pryor’s journey is a WILD and terrifying honor,” Foxe shared. “Maddie is coming into DARK X-MEN with a sense of autonomy she’s rarely had over her life—but she’s doing so during the FALL OF X. I don’t think it’s a spoiler to say things aren’t happy-go-lucky for anyone in the mutant orbit right now, and that includes tempestuous redheads who’ve plopped a giant demon castle right off of Central Park.”
So what’s Dark X-Men #2 about?
Tough choices lay ahead for Madelyne as she gathers desperate mutants at her new Limbo embassy in New York. Can she lead mutantkind to brighter days or will her dark tendencies make matters far worse…
