ABOUT

Prolific and acclaimed writer Jed MacKay continues his exciting new take on the X-Men!
A deadly cadre of warriors pursue their target to Earth — a target making a beeline to the X-Men’s home territory of Alaska! But who is this fugitive, and what grim portents do they carry for the X-Men? As a horde of the galaxy’s most fearsome killers descend upon the X-Men, help comes from an unexpected direction: across the border! Alpha Flight flies into action again, though at what price? And can even Canada’s hardiest heroes turn the tide? A simple search-and-rescue mission escalates out of control — placing not just the X-Men, but also the entire town of Merle in danger! And as 3K steps out from the shadows for the first time to further their twisted program, will the Means — their anointed headsman — slake his bloodthirst on our mutant heroes? Plus: Meet the all-new, all-different X-Men—staking their own claim for possession of mutantkind’s future!

STANDARD, PRIMARY, DM AND VARIANT COVERS

Standard and Primary covers are widely available through general retailers. They often have higher print runs and can be cheaper, especially during sales.

In contrast, Direct Market (DM) and variant covers are primarily sold in comic shops. DM editions tend to have more limited availability and may be more valuable to collectors.

The main differences lie in artwork style, availability, price, and collector appeal. Ultimately, the choice between standard and variant covers depends on personal preference, budget, and individual collecting goals.
