TIMELESS #1 – A shocking glimpse into the next year of Marvel stories, including a flashforward to a devastating future born from the choices of today! All of time and space is threatened by the ascension of an ancient evil – the Moon Knight Unending has risen – a nightmare born of StarkTech, the Eternal Machine and the God of the Moon! As all of Earth bows before his overwhelming power, one man is able to stand against Khonshu’s coming tide of chaos – POWER MAN, the Marvel Universe’s final living super hero. But who is he – and how did he come to wield the unstable powers of the Sentry, the Hulk and the Iron Fist? And what dark, deeply personal conflict underpins this mind-bending apocalypse? And at the end of the line, can the Marvel Universe ever truly be saved?

FALL OF THE HOUSE OF X #1 – Mutantkind has never had a greater fall. From the highs of Krakoa to the lowest of lows – outlawed, hunted, killed, most of their kind missing or dead. With Cyclops on trial facing a death penalty, the time has come for the X-Men to make their final stand, whether they’re ready or not. The tale of the house Xavier built will long be told… and few will forget this darkest chapter. From writer Gerry Duggan (X-Men, Marauders, Uncanny Avengers) and artist Lucas Werneck (Immortal X-Men, Trial Of Magneto) comes half of the story that will bring the Krakoa Age to its conclusion!
