Marvel Launches Massive X-Men Dawn of X Sale

With comics no longer shipping for the time being, now is the perfect time to get caught up with the biggest stories in the industry right now. The biggest of those is Marvel’s Dawn of X relaunch of the X-Men with writer Jonathan Hickman. Beginning House of X and Dawn of X, everything has changed for the X-Men and mutants in the Marvel Universe. Then Dawn of X launched six brand new series. Now Marvel Comics has launched the Jonathan Hickman’s Dawn of X sale! House of X, Powers of X, and every Dawn of X issue since then is up to 67 percent off now through April 12th on Marvel’s Digital Comics Shop.

As “Head of X,” Jonathan Hickman has led his fellow X-Men writers in making the X-Men the biggest thing in superhero comics again. Centered on the new mutant nation of Krakoa, each series plays a role in forming a larger overall narrative. Hickman’s X-Men is epic adventures and intense world-building where any mutant can appear. Gerry Duggan’s Marauders takes the X-Men onto the oceans where Kate Pryde leads a team on a mission to rescue mutants from unfriendly territories. Mutant magic is front in center with Apocalypse and the new Captain Britain in Tini Howard’s Excalibur. A new black ops squad is formed to handle Krakoa’s enemies in Benjamin Percy’s X-Force. The next generation of mutants takes center stage in Jonathan Hickman and Ed Brisson’s New Mutants.

And that was just the first wave of Dawn of X. There is also Wolverine and Cable solo series, plus the troublemakers in the debut issue of Zeb Wells’ Hellions and the X-Men go up against Marvel’s first family in X-Men/Fantastic Four by Chip Zdarsky. And Jonathan Hickman teams up with artists like Russell Dauterman and Alan Davis for epic one-shots in Giant-Size X-Men: Emma Frost and Jean Grey and Giant-Size X-Men: Nightcrawler.
