Marvel Reveals How the X-Men's Krakoa Era Will End
Three X-Men miniseries close out the era in 2024.
Marvel Studios has revealed new details about the coming official end of the X-Men's Krakoa era. The Krakoan Age that began with 2019's House of X and Powers of X series will conclude with three previously teased miniseries: Fall of the House of X, Rise of the Powers of X, and Resurrection of Magneto. These series will then give way to the new X-Men era launching in 2024 under the editorial guidance of veteran Marvel executive editor Tom Brevoort, with more details about that shift teased for November. Marvel revealed Mark Brooks' teaser image for Krakoa's final chapter, covers for the first issues of each of the three miniseries, and a trailer during Marvel's Next Big Thing panel at New York Comic Con.
Current X-Men writer Gerry Duggan writes and Immortal X-Men artist Lucas Werneck draws Fall of the House of X. The new synopsis reveals Cyclops on trial and facing the death penalty as mutantkind prepares to make its last stand against Orchis.

Immortal X-Men writer Kieron Gillen and Powers of X artist R.B. Silva helm Rise of the Powers of X. The series takes place in a future where Orchis is victorious, but Nimrod and Omega Sentinel have other plans for ascension beyond mutants and humans.
In Resurrection of Magneto, by X-Men Red's Al Ewing and artist Luciano Vecchio, Storm must make a choice. Does she go against Magneto's wishes to bring the master of magnetism back from death? And will he survive the shock of what has happened to mutants since his death if she does?
