Yesterday was a big day for the X-Men fans all around the world. First, FOX released the first trailer, as well as a new poster, for X-Men: Apocalypse, the new X-Men movie coming next year. And here's the poster: And as that wasn't enough, Marvel officially announced the mutant event for 2016, Apocalypse Wars. Beginning in Extraordinary X-Men and spreading to Uncanny X-Men and later All-New X-Men, Apocalypse Wars will show us the X-Men confronting Apocalypse in different and unexpected ways.

According to Daniel Ketchum: ''“In the same vein as the classic event Fall of the Mutants, Apocalypse Wars is a thematic crossover that sees each of the three X-Men titles telling an Apocalypse-centric story organic to its own mission statement. Because it’s not a single tightly-knit storyline, each creative team has the breathing room to tell their unique version of an Apocalypse story that will have lasting consequences for their cast of X-Men.”'' In Extraordinary X-Men, Jeff Lemire and Humberto Ramos will take us into the future with Storm and her team of X-Men in an attempt to save mutantkind from extinction, but that lead them into a direct confront against Apocalypse! Meanwhile, in Uncanny X-Men, Cullen Bunn and Ken Lashley will lead Psylocke in her quest to discover what's wrong with Archangel, but that will lead her to a lot more than she bargained for… And in All-New X-Men, Dennis Hopeless and Mark Bagley will show us how Evan a.k.a. Kid Apocalypse deals with the dark future that awaits him. Will he succumb to his nature and become what he fears? Or will he manage to overcome it?
