Marvel Comics has released solicitations for two major X-Men titles out in February, along with cover art. That includes Fall of the House of X #2 and Rise of the Powers of X #2. Given these titles, including X-Men: Forever, are leading to an end for the Krakoa era, many are anticipating some big changes.
From the solicits, we can surmise Polaris is coming to help save the X-Men from near inhalation, and judging by the cover, she’ll be sporting a similar costume as Magneto. Nice. Meanwhile, it looks like Rise of the Powers of X #2 will be taking place on some other plane of existence.
“The two series that are one has been where this story has been leading since the Dawn of Krakoa,” Duggan said. “Polaris is coming from Knowhere, and we hope you’ll join us as well…”
Don’t miss Pepe Larraz’s process shots of his Fall of the House of X #2 cover over on Twitter.
Check out the full solicits and covers below.
In FALL OF THE HOUSE OF X #2, the X-Men may be at their lowest spot, and they may be on the brink of complete eradication… but they are not going down without a fight! Polaris returns to guide the X-Men home, bringing a wicked surprise for Orchis! This epic tale split in two continues as the Krakoan Age nears its conclusion!
