This July, Marvel Comics will return to one of the most iconic X-Men stories of all time as part of Secret Wars, as writer Fabian Nicieza and artist Gerardo Sandoval unleash Age of Apocalypse #1.
Apocalypse rules his domain on Battleworld with an iron fist. The few humans left alive have been enslaved. The mutant rebellion has been crushed – it’s survivors, scattered. But the terrorist insurgents known as the X-Men will not go quietly into this grim future. They will fight! They will end Apocalypse’s reign of terror! Even if it means their very lives!
But the fight is not yet over. A very special mutant named Cypher may hold the key to turning the tide. A weapon to be pointed directly at Apocalypse and fired. Now, the hunt is on as Magneto and his X-Men attempt to rescue Cypher from the clutches of Cyclops & Havok’s Elite Mutant Force, Dark Beast and his vile experiments, and the new Horsemen of Apocalypse!
But even if they win, have they already lost? Find out as one of the most iconic X-Men stories ever is reborn on Battleworld in AGE OF APOCALYPSE #1 this July!
