New York, NY— September 17, 2026 — Avengers: Armageddon may spell the end of the Avengers as we know them, but from the ashes rises a mighty new era for Marvel’s Merry Mutants in MAXIMUM X-MEN!
Launching this December, the all-new ongoing series by writer Christopher Yost and artist Tony S. Daniel—two X-Men superstars in their own right—brings together a powerhouse lineup including stalwart X-Men and iconic mutant heroes. With the Avengers disbanded, they’ll step up to become Earth’s new Mightiest Heroes! Today, fans can get a first look at the series, including the debut of explosive variant covers by Simone Di Meo and Ken Lashley, along with a sneak peek at the action-packed interior artwork.
MUTANTS BY BIRTH, HEROES BY CHOICE!
After the cataclysmic events of Armageddon, who’s left to save the world from Avengers-level threats? In the absence of Earth’s Mightiest Heroes, Storm and Wolverine assemble a new team of Earth’s Mightiest Mutants to face the foes no single hero can handle. But they may quickly come to regret that decision when the Annihilation Wave arrives on Earth!
Check out the new artwork and stay tuned for more news about the series in the months ahead. Discover what leads into this exciting new run of X-MEN in AVENGERS: ARMAGEDDON, now available at your local comic shop.
