The saga kicks off when Professor X breaks out of Graymalkin Prison, sowing division and discord among the different mutant factions. What has caused Professor X to go on the run? And will his assorted pupils move to protect him, recapture him or kill him?
Executive Editor and Coordinator of X Tom Brevoort explained in a press release:
“We’ve mostly been keeping the various groups of X-characters separated from one another as we set up the post-Krakoa landscape But it feels like now is the right time to send them crashing into one another. And who better to instigate this situation than the disgraced Professor X, who has intimate connections with almost all of our key players?”
Today, fans can see the turmoil, drama, and betrayal that awaits in the pulse-pounding X-MANHUNT TRAILER, featuring never-before-seen artwork!
