In the shocking wake of the Hellfire Gala, what will the FALL OF X mean for the X-Men? For one of their greatest, it will change everything! She's been known as Kitty Pryde, Sprite, Ariel, Red Queen, Captain Kate and more. Now, out of tragedy and torment emerges…Shadowkat! But how will Kitty and her fellow mutants react when Emma Frost marries Tony Stark? And as wedding bells ring, where is Cyclops? Nowhere fun! Meanwhile, Juggernaut has come a long way from his beginnings as a bully transformed into an unstoppable foe. In fact, he'd recently become one of mutantkind's best human allies. So why is he trying to kill Firestar? And, with your favorite super-team at its lowest ebb, there's a new group looking to claim their mantle: meet Doctor Doom's Latverian X-Men! Collecting X-MEN (2021) #25-29.
Gerry Duggan has become one of Marvel’s most influential writers, having first made an impression at the House of Ideas with a lengthy and always surprising Deadpool run alongside his frequent writing partner, Brian Posehn. Among Duggan’s solo credits are Nova, Hulk and multiple tie-ins to the Secret Wars event. He added Deadpool to the revamped roster of Uncanny Avengers and brought his unique blend of action and humor to All-New Guardians of the Galaxy, leading up to the cosmic event series Infinity Wars. Marauders and Cable established him as a vital part of the storytelling team for the Dawn of X era, a role he has cemented further by launching the blockbuster new X-Men title. Duggan’s earlier collaboration with artist Phil Noto — The Infinite Horizon, a reimagining of Homer’s The Odyssey in a dystopian future — earned an Eisner Award nomination for Best New Series.

Italian illustrator Stefano Caselli broke into American comics during the early 2000s with work on titles including Marvel’s Mutant X and Thunderbolts. He enhanced his reputation on series such as Avengers: The Initiative, Secret Warriors and Avengers Assemble before playing a key role in the rotating art team on Dan Slott’s Amazing Spider-Man and joining Jonathan Hickman on Avengers. Caselli collaborated with Brian Michael Bendis on a groundbreaking Invincible Iron Man run featuring Riri Williams as a new armored hero, and joined Gerry Duggan on the seafaring X-series Marauders.
