This is the way (of X).
With Marvel Comics’ upcoming X-Men spinoff comic Way of X set to hit shelves in one month, series writer Simon Spurrier shared a cryptic message pertaining to the book on social media. There is a lengthy bit written in the Krakoan alphabet, which translates to, “Something is rotten in the state of Krakoa.” This ominous warning is followed by the English statement, “We need a new way.”
Way of X is set to launch on Wednesday, April 21. “Mutantkind has built a new Eden… but there are serpents in this garden,” the official synopsis for issue #1 reads. “Some mutants struggle to fit in. Some mutants turn to violence and death. And the children whisper of the Patchwork Man, singing in their hearts… Only one mutant senses the looming shadows. Snared by questions of death, law and love, only Nightcrawler can fight for the soul of Krakoa. Only he — and the curious crew he assembles (including fan-favorites Dr. Nemesis, Pixie, and Blink) — can help mutants defeat their inner-darkness and find a new way to live. This is the WAY OF X.”
