Children of the Vault

Deniz Camp and Luca Maresca launched this 2023 Marvel series as a taut, four-issue miniseries that pits the X-Men against a terrifyingly evolved offshoot of humanity. The Children of the Vault, having spent millennia in accelerated time, emerge as near-omnipotent beings whose very existence challenges the place of mutants in the Marvel Universe. It's a sharp, high-concept sci-fi thriller that redefines a classic threat for a new era.
