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:

It’s the second of three standalone stories, as CRIMINAL’s new expanded format keeps the hits coming!

In previous arcs of Criminal we’ve met the man who killed him, and we met his only surviving son… now meet TEEG LAWLESS, thief, murderer, and all around bad mother-#@$%er. Fresh from two tours in Vietnam, Teeg arrives home in 1972 carrying the baggage of war, a drug habit, and an unpaid debt to a local mob boss that’s now long overdue. *“Before the Living End”* tells how he goes about finding a way out of his problems and back into the life of crime.

And on top of this longer-than-usual length main story, CRIMINAL now features an *expanded* back-pages section, as well – with articles by Brubaker and other top crime writers, from novelists to screenwriters to comic writers. These noir articles have become a popular piece of the CRIMINAL package, and are something that can only be found in the comics, not in any collections.
So don’t miss out on this second *standalone* issue of the most acclaimed crime comic on the stands!

PENCILS: JOHN CASSADAY, DAVID FINCH, ED MCGUINNESS, JOHN ROMITA JR. and LEINIL FRANCIS YU
Where were you when Captain America died? Perhaps you were listening to the radio or reading the morning paper. Maybe you were surfing the web or on the phone with a friend. You were probably shocked, most likely thinking, “How could they? How could this happen to Cap?” And for a moment, you perhaps thought about all the ways the super soldier meant something to you. Something very real, very abiding. FALLEN SON: DEATH OF CAPTAIN AMERICA follows the reaction of the legendary heroes’ best friends and closest comrades as they struggle to work through the emotions stirred by the loss of their ally, and the stages of grief that make them confront the part they may have played in that loss. Wolverine. The Avengers. Hawkeye. Spider-Man. Iron Man. All have their own sense of loss, their own levels of grieving. This is their story. This is Cap’s story. This is our story. The story of a Fallen Son and the world he helped make a better place.

PENCILS: MARKO DJURDJEVIC, GUSTAVO, HARVEY TOLIBAO, JUAN SANTACRUZ, LARRY STROMAN, CLAYTON HENRY, FRED HEMBECK, LEONARD KIRK, and RAFAEL SANDOVAL
Marvel once again poses the question, “What If…?” What if Annihilus had not been defeated in the outskirts of our galaxy, and instead had brought his devastating alien armada to Earth? What if Iron Man had lost the Civil War? What If Captain America led all the heroes against the Superhuman Registration Act and Henry Gyrich became head of S.H.I.E.L.D. to take them down? What if the Hulk had landed on a peaceful planet, as the Marvel heroes had intended when they exiled him into space? Or Banner had landed on Sakaar instead of the Hulk?

WOLVERINE: THE DEATH OF WOLVERINE PREMIERE
COVER BY: HOWARD CHAYKIN
WRITER: MARC GUGGENHEIM and JASON AARON
PENCILS: HOWARD CHAYKIN
Following up on plot threads left over from CIVIL WAR: WOLVERINE, this new story promises to take Marvel’s feral mutant to the limit – and beyond! With Wolverine reduced to a brain-dead vegetable, you’d think that was the end of Wolverine’s adventures – but it’s actually just the beginning of Wolverine’s greatest challenge yet. Guest-starring Iron Man and Dr. Strange! Plus: Wendell Rayfield is a recently divorced, down-on-his-luck ex-cop who’s looking down the business end of a 40 with no hope for the future and with demons from his past still haunting him at every turn. All he has going for him is his new job. A job that involves a very large machine gun, a hole in the ground, a certain hirsute mutant and several thousand bullets. We all know what damage Wolverine can do with his claws, but how dangerous can he really be when all he’s able to do is talk? Wendell Rayfield is about to find out. Collecting WOLVERINE #56-61.
