Check out all four covers now and stay tuned for more news about FALL OF X, including details about this year’s HELLFIRE GALA X-VOTE!

Well I’ll give Marvel credit for not outright spoiling the 4th Sinister even if there’s only one likely choice at this point. Does Sinister somehow avoid the Pit or do the other three fish him out?

OMG Apocalypse is coming back!

A man of innumerable personalities and powers vs. the most powerful artificial intelligence in this universe: Legion vs. Nimrod!

I can't believe I'm rooting for Nimrod over a mutant. Legion's been too much of a little b-word lately.

A deadly mutant attacks an innocent small town, but nothing is what it seems. Jean Grey, Cyclops, and Bishop are tasked with a routine mission, but as they dig deeper, they uncover a hidden truth that will send shockwaves through mutantkind.

Hellion's striking back against the flatscans. Finally, he's given up his stupid morals and is giving them what they deserve.

Re: Sinister Four. Bleh. I knew they'd have to actually develop them a lil more, but we're just getting SoS and a ton of build-up. I'm not even one of the people who's sick of Sinister, and I'm rolling my eyes with this one. Like yeah this is probably just set-up and they won't be an immediate, super-prevalent threat like they are now. But still.

The sons of X is confusing the timelines for me. Nightcrawler’s still in his demon/monster form after sins of sinister and in the hands or orchis, but is in Sinisters hands and is more like a beast in SOS….at the same time? When does the timeline branch off in SOS?

[CGAR]

Interesting that NONE of the Dawn of X writers are doing anything in this sandbox.

[Frobisher]

I like the quiet council dancing in like a West Side Story gang.

Excited for Heralds of Apocalypse but incredibly annoyed that Sinister doesn't seem to be going away anytime soon.

Thanks for adding the last one, you beat me to it

If Mother Righteous is the 4th sinister (which I personally still feel is a red herring) then she has big roles for two of the four books. And damn this spoils Warlock's fate. We knew he was under attack, not destroyed unless I miss something.

[Starfish]

I had hoped SoS would be Sinister's swan song.

Also, poor Warlock.

None of this would have happened had they kept Danger around.

[Vishop]

This is just a selling propaganda for Marvel for obvious reasons and mostly filler. Aside from Apocalypse. They have done this before and they are doing it again

Thank you Proxy and Vordan!

Apocalypse is back!

And so are the Sinisters.....
