Kieron Gillen and Luca Maresca have teamed to tell the tale of Krakoa’s darkest truths, and set up the rebirth of the X-Men, in X-Men: Forever from Marvel Comics.
X-MEN: FOREVER will be a four-issue limited series launching in March where Gillen will build upon the dramatic developments currently unfolding in pages of Immortal X-Men, including the quest for Dominion, the interpersonal conflicts of the Quiet Council, the escape from the White Hot Room, and of course, the divine intervention of the Phoenix! The series will provide pivotal insight into the shocking events of FALL OF THE HOUSE OF X and RISE OF THE POWERS OF X as a new omnipotent threat to mutantkind is introduced and the final secrets of Krakoa burn to ashes!

Finally, some answers. There’s also been some questions that have haunted you since the START of immortal X-men. Finally, some answers, too. But not the ones you’re expecting…
“X-MEN FOREVER is Luca and myself doing a coda to Immortal X-Men, a requiem for the Krakoan age and generally setting fire to all time and space,” Gillen explained in a press release from Marvel Comics. “It’s the manipulative hand in the steel glove that is Rise of the Powers of X. By the time it drops, you’ll be wondering what on earth is going on with certain characters, and X-MEN FOREVER will give you all the answers.”
