The X-line got a serious shakeup earlier this year, following the events of ‘ResurrXion,’ and “X-Men: Gold” has emerged as the quasi-flagship book for the line. Under Marc Guggenheim’s pen, the series has gathered together a veritable All-Star X-team (Old Man Logan, Colossus, Kitty Pride, Storm, etc), and is committed to telling ‘classic’ X-stories. The issue we are previewing today is a “Secret Empire” tie-in, a first for the series, and it sees the Xavier Institute take its proper role as a sanctuary for all. It’s a nice touch for an institute that means so much to so many people. We are thrilled to share an exclusive first look at the issue, which comes out on July 5th.
