How X-Men Will Be Looking Post-Age Of Revelation With Magik & Colossus

How X-Men will be looking post-Age Of Revelation with Magik & Colossus #1 from Ashley Allen and German Peralta

It is probably not a secret that the X-Men: Age Of Revelation was a bit of a dud, certainly in sales terms. Rather than giving titles a sales boost, with people jumping on to revisit the success of Age Of Apocalypse thirty years ago, with a new reality and new relaunched titles, people seem to have taken it as a chance to drop off. While those who read the first part of the Magik digital issue (and maybe no others) were incensed at what they saw at best as a retrograde step for the character and at worst, a betrayal of survivors of sexual assault who saw Illyana Rasputin as a representative for what they had been through.

This week sees the finale for X-Men: Age Of Revelation drop and will be followed by the restarting, relaunching or newly publishing series, such as Magik & Colossus #1 from the Magik creative team from before the Age Of Revelation, Ashley Allen and German Peralta. The question yet to be answered is, will readers return? Or did Age Of Revelation put them off enough that they will have dropped the Xbooks for good? The events of Age Of Revelation are meant to impact Shadows Of Tomorrow in that, at least, Cyclops and The Beast will remember this future when they are returned to the present, able to change it going forward. So maybe, just maybe, Magik will no longer die and be sent to Limbo in an assault to rescue Fabian Cortez under the orders of Doug Ramsey. And Kitty Pryde won't be turned into a ghost by Doug Ramsey, plunging Colossus into depression. Here's a look at Magik & Colossus #1 courtesy of AIPT. As Magik and Colossus go home, courtesy of a limbo window. And it's time to go up against the Russians…
