SDCC | ‘Age of Revelation’ continues in November

See what’s up with Magik, the Fenris twins, the Iron King, Vindicator and the X-Babies during Marvel’s next big X-Men event.

Marvel has revealed more details about Age of Revelation, their big alternate-history X-Men event that kicks off in October. Following the slow trickle over four days of revealing the titles that’ll take over the X-Men line in October, Marvel has released covers and solicits for the second issues of each of those titles, which will arrive in November.

As a reminder, Age of Revelation is an Age of Apocalypse-style event. Like the 1990s event — which celebrates its 30th anniversary this year — Age of Revelation will show us an alternate world and bring the relaunch of several X-related titles for the duration, as Doug Ramsey, the heir to Apocalypse, creates a new world order and we jump 10 years into the future to see what it brings.

I covered the first issues when they were announced here, here, here and here, if you need to catch up on what was previously announced. Now here’s what you can expect in November … note that a couple of titles, Binary and Rogue Storm, are missing, but Marvel said details on their second issues would be released at a later date.

Quentin Quire, Wolverine + Spider-Man join the ‘Age of Revelation’

Plus, Jed MacKay and Netho Diaz show us what the new world leader is up to in ‘X-Men: Book of Revelation.’

If you’ve been following along, you know that Marvel has been announcing all week the titles and creative teams that’ll make up their Age of Revelation event. The event and all its titles kick off in October — not including the prelude that was stealth-released this week — and today brings four more to add to the list.

Loosely based on the Age of Apocalypse event from the 1990s, this one features the newly minted Heir to Apocalypse, Doug Ramsey, taking over the world and creating a new mutant paradise — but it’s all built on a lie! Some mutants back him, others rebel against him, while some seem to have their own drama going on.

Today’s titles feature Wolverine, both the original vintage and a brand-new version; Quentin Quire, who is all grown up; and Spider-Man — yes, the Spider-Man, aka Peter Parker, not Nightcrawler dressing up as him. There’s also a title focused on Revelation himself, written by the event’s architect Jed MacKay and drawn by Netho Diaz.

Check out the four titles and their creative team below. They all have first issues debuting on Oct. 22.
