As a part of the big finale for the current Krakoa era of comics, Marvel has announced X-Men: Forever, a four-issue miniseries by Immortal X-Men writer Kieron Gillen and artist Luca Maresca.
The miniseries will tie into Gillen’s work on Rise of the Powers of X, which was announced last month alongside Fall of the House of X.
“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 said. “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.”
Here are the details from Marvel.com:

Like many of the series we’ve seen across the Krakoa age, this one shares a name with previous X-Men series — 2001’s X-Men Forever, a time-jumping miniseries featuring Jean Grey, Iceman and more, and the 2009 X-Men Forever title that was billed as allowing writer Chris Claremont to pick up where he left off when he left the X-Men titles back in the 1990s.
The latest X-Men: Forever miniseries begins March 20.
