X of Swords (Summer X-Over)

[Master of Sound]

So do we know all 10 characters who will be wielding the 10 swords?

I keep counting 9.

The tenth we still don't know who it is, but from the outline with the cape and what we've seen in X-Force, it's probably Mikhail Rasputin with the Cerebro Sword.

Based on a new teaser that Yu was drawing, it looks like it may be spoilers:

Jean. Speculation is that she will somehow get it from Mikhail

I'm going to put this in spoiler tags just in case..

spoilers:

Based on the Yu preview posted to his insta-story there were 10 characters with swords but instead of Doug Ramsey and Magneto with swords it included Scott and Jean. We don't know much about the preview and it was a really quick look but a few folks were able to capture the image. It was posted in the Jean thread yesterday

end of spoilers

I wonder if we will see more than 10 characters with swords or if there are instances where a hero falls and another has to take up their sword. Either way I'm excited for this crossover to start.

I think we are going to see lots of characters with swords throughout the event, but there will be a focus on a set 10 swords of importance and their wielders. We know some are going to play prominent roles given who the characters are and their history with a particular sword (Magik and her Soulsword, Wolverine and the Muramasa Blade, etc) while others might get a sword just to take part in the event even though the sword is new or has no real importance (like if Cyclops gets a sword).

No Phoenix blade though, which is streamed, a bit.

Wasn t it confirmwd to be magneto? The silhouette on the tarot card in the FCBD teaser issue also implied that.

I think some people speculated that is maybe Mikhail due to the cape...

Maybe there's more like 15 swords, but in the end only 10 lead to something.

I was hoping theyd put the FCBD pages in the hardcover.

Gorgon and Grasscutter, for this event the names of the swords are as important as the wielders.

Get 'em, Betsy!

I am sure they will. Solicits can change.

It would make 0 sense to leave it out.

If that’s suppose to be a shot of Apocalypse with all of the Horseman of Deaths, then it’s missing Banshee and Betsy.
