In X-Men: Age of X Chapter 1, a fractured group of X-Men recounts their altered pasts in a dystopian world where mutants are hunted and history has been rewritten. As they gather on Fortress X, bracing for an inevitable assault, the weight of their changed lives and uncertain futures builds toward a sudden, violent confrontation. Written by Mike Carey and illustrated by a rotating team of artists including Mirco Pierfederici, Gabriel Hernández Walta, and Carlo Barberi, with colors by Mirco Pierfederici, Gabriel Hernández Walta, and others, the issue’s stark, layered visuals bring a haunting, immersive tone to this alternate reality. The cover, by Leinil Francis Yu, captures the tension of the moment with striking precision.
