"Fall of X" is a 2023 relaunch of the X-Men line of American comic books published by Marvel Comics. It is the sequel to the "Destiny of X" publishing initiative, and is the final initiative in the Krakoan Age of the X-Men.[1] The phase started with the third annual Hellfire Gala (July 2023)[2] and culminated in the dual interconnected miniseries Fall of the House of X and Rise of the Powers of X (January 2024 – May 2024). The phase's final issue, X-Men #35 (legacy Uncanny X-Men #700) was released in June 2024.[3] It is followed by line relaunch titled X-Men: From the Ashes.

During the Fall of X, mutantkind's unparalleled growth and prosperity on the island nation Krakoa was threatened by the human supremacist organization Orchis.[4]

Publication history[edit]

The final phase was kicked off in the third annual Hellfire Gala (July 2023) which drastically altered the status quo of series;[2][5] this event was written by Gerry Duggan, with art by Adam Kubert, Luciano Vecchio, Matteo Lolli, Russell Dauterman, Javier Pina, R.B. Silva, Joshua Cassara, Kris Anka, and Pepe Larraz.[6] In August 2023, Kieron Gillen commented that "part of the idea from Sins of Sinister to Fall of X was a lot of the small things going wrong. Obviously, what happened at the Hellfire Gala was big, but those events are based upon a series of small catastrophes that added up".[7]

This phase then culminated in the dual interconnected miniseries Fall of the House of X and Rise of the Powers of X (January 2024 – May 2024);[8][9] Duggan wrote Fall of the House of X with art by Werneck.[10] Gillen continued as a main writer on multiple series in this phase such as Rise of the Powers of X with artist R.B. Silva, the ongoing Immortal X-Men conclusion and the limited series X-Men: Forever (March 2024) with artist Luca Maresca.[11][12][13] Al Ewing concluded the ongoing X-Men Red with artist Yildiray Çinar.[14][15]

The final issue X-Men #35 (legacy Uncanny X-Men #700) was published in June 2024;[3] the end of the issue previews the next publishing initiative X-Men: From The Ashes with Xavier telepathically "witnessing mutants trying to re-integrate into human society and facing the same fear and hatred they always have" in the post-Krakoan Age.[16] X-Men: The Wedding Special celebrated the relationship between Mystique and Destiny;[17][18] while the issue was published in May 2024, Gillen commented that it "is set between the incoming and outgoing administrations - I'm both giving a little after credit scene to my Immortal X-Men stories, and setting up what's coming next".[19]
