Prolific and acclaimed writer Jed MacKay continues his exciting new take on the X-Men!

Doug Ramsey, the heir to Apocalypse known as Revelation, has a mission: to carry on En Sabah Nur's great work. But in trying to create the great work of a new world, the first steps are the hardest to plot. Will he be given an opportunity before this dream is strangled in its cradle? Plus: One year on from the fateful Hellfire Gala that changed everything -- when a cowardly sneak attack by anti-mutant forces forever shattered the dream of a unified mutant nation -- X-Men of all stripes come together in solidarity and celebration to mark the moment...and to proclaim loudly and strongly to all concerned that mutantkind still stands!

His career caught fire in 2019 with Black Cat, a character-defining phenomenon.

The pencils of Ryan Stegman first gained rave reviews in the Marvel adaptation of Raymond E. Feist's Magician Apprentice and Riftwar.
