Marvel is thrilled to announce that the first two X-Necrosha tie-ins, X- Necrosha and New Mutants #6, have sold out at Diamond (though copies may still be available at retail level) and will return with X-Necrosha Second Printing Variant and New Mutants #6 Second Printing Variant! Go out and grab your copies now because this monumental epic will leave no X-Men team unscathed!

The Black Queen plans to use the X-Men as a stepping stone to reach immortality in X- Necrosha Second Printing Variant! A story this big can only be handled by a team of stars like Christopher Yost, Craig Kyle, Zeb Wells, Mike Carey, as well as stunning artist Clayton Crain! The X-Men are the only ones capable of stopping Selene from claming the unimaginable power of a deity! But between them and her are swarms of undead mutants! An army of the walking dead, immortality within a Black Queen’s grasp, this is the Rise of the Mutants!

In New Mutants #6 Second Printing Variant the Black Queen Selene brings the fight right to the New Mutants’ doorstep! The fan favorite team of Zeb Wells and artist Diogenes Neves present this thrilling landmark issue that kicks off this dark and twisted crossover! The dead are resurrected and nightmares are brought to life as Selene sets in motion her plan for ultimate revenge!

Critics and fans are raving about this epic event:

“X Necrosha is an entertaining start to the latest X-Men crossover. It’s hard to imagine Crain being more in his element as an artist than a story involving zombies and wide-scale bloodshed.” – Jesse Schedeen, IGN.com

“New Mutants #6 has, easily, Zeb Wells’ strongest script on the series to date… Wells has definitely got the talent and imagination.” – Greg McElhatton, ComicBookResources.com

Marvel urges retailers to check their orders on all X-Necrosha tie-ins – such as X-Force, New Mutants, and X-Men Legacy – due to the overwhelming demand and critical acclaim. Which mutants are given bone-jarring resurrections to be used as Selene’s instruments of revenge? This must see even is going to shake the mutant world to the core and remember X fans, this is just the beginning!

No fan can afford to miss any chapter of X-Necrosha, and we have them in order for you right here:

Silver Surfer

As the Squad’s resident alien, the Surfer is a fish-out-of-water, constantly puzzled and amazed at the strange customs and culture of Earthlings. The Surfer, for all his innocence, is in hiding. Even as he learns more about this pleasant oasis called Earth, taking in its mountains, rivers and beaches (where he’ll be a sensation among the surfer dudes) he’s worried that his presence may draw his former master, that world-devouring barrel of laughs called GALACTUS, into the fray, and possibly get the Earth eaten.

The Surfer and the other Squaddies

The other teammates respect him, but don’t even pretend to understand him. While Iron Man tries to fathom the mysteries of the Surfer’s powerful surfboard, Falcon has taken it upon himself to educate the alien in the ways of Earthlings. The Surfer stays on Earth because he finds a sense of belonging and higher moral purpose with the team. His moral standards and calm demeanor make him the team’s conscience. We will see him adjusting to life on Earth and confronting his fear and shame over the awesome evil he escaped from, the aforementioned Galactus.

The Surfer adds his cosmic ENERGY FACTOR to the team.
