Get Hype: Marvel’s terrifying new Midnight Universe gets ‘Midnight X-Men’ #1 preview

The recently revealed creator-driven initiative reimagining iconic heroes in nightmarish new incarnations debuts in August with MIDNIGHT X-MEN #1.

Marvel Comics has released unlettered preview pages for the much-anticipated Midnight X-Men, the first issue in a planned launch for a horror universe kicking off in August. Headlining the universe is writer Jonathan Hickman and artist Matteo Della Fonte.

“We were very keen to have Matteo on this series, and we have not been disappointed. His storytelling is so good, and he is absolutely nailing every aspect of Jonathan’s script,” said Jordan D. White, senior editor of the series. “I could not be more thrilled to be working on shaping the Midnight line. Everyone has been cut loose and is truly firing on all cylinders. I cannot wait for everyone to see these books.”

So what’s Midnight X-Men #1 about?

AN ALL-NEW, ALL-DISTURBING UNIVERSE BEGINS HERE!

The clock strikes midnight and it’s the dark dawn of a new era. The shadows of New York City are stalked by vampires and the mutant empyres. The sword of Damocles hangs over the peace between these two species and the factions within them. An outright war is brewing and the unturned will be caught in the crossfire. Blockbuster comic book writer Jonathan Hickman returns to the X-Men with a hunger for blood as this new world of terror reimagines the heroes of the Marvel Universe!
