Reign of X #1

Reign of X Volume 1 kicks off this 2021 Panini France collection in style, with a striking cover by Valerio Schiti showcasing a confident lineup of mutant figures — including a goggled woman in teal, an armored warrior, and a red-caped hero — arranged in a bold geometric X-shaped composition. Schiti's clean, dynamic linework and Marte Gracia's vibrant coloring make this French-language anthology edition immediately eye-catching on any shelf. Collecting stories from a roster of writers including Ewing, Hickman, Nito, Williams, and Wells, this volume promises a rich survey of the mutant nation of Krakoa at its most ambitious.
