From the creative minds of writer Peter David and artist Carmine Di Giandomenico comes All-New X-Factor #1.

Serval Industries, the world’s foremost leader in cutting-edge internet and weapons technology has just unveiled their newest contribution to society – it’s superhuman division, the All-New X-Factor! Led by Polaris, the mutant mistress of magnetism, fellow X-Factor members Quicksilver, Gambit, Danger, Cypher, and Warlock use their powers for the betterment of society.  Or are their corporate backers at Serval Industries using X-Factor for the betterment of themselves?

“So much of what happens in this country stems from corporate control and involvement,” explained Peter David, in an interview with Marvel.com“So why not expand that real world philosophy to the world of comics and have it be that a corporation is interested in expanding into super heroes? I mean, if super heroes really existed, that's probably what would happen.”




All-New X-Factor #1which includes a cover by Jared Fletcher arrives on January 8, 2014.

Another British invasion is in the works with an 8-issue limited series by writers Andy Lanning and Alan Cowsill who have teamed with artist Richard Elson.

Long ago, Captain Britain, Dark Angel, Motormouth and the pantheon of Marvel UK Heroes believed they had defeated the shadowy Mys-Tech organization in one Earth-shattering climactic battle. But they were wrong. Mys-Tech has returned, and their presence threatens not only the world – but the entire universe!





Revolutionary War: Alpha #1 which features a cover by Mark Brooks goes on sale January 8, 2014 while Revolutionary War: Dark Angel #1 written by Kieron Gillen and illustrated by Dietrich Smith arrives on January 15, 2013.

Cullen Bunn (Wolverine, Deadpool Kills the Marvel Universe) and Gabriel Hernandez Walta (Astonishing X-Men) find themselves magnetically attracted to Erik Lehnsherr.

Eric Lehnsherr has been called many things – hero, villain, teacher, revolutionary, redeemer, destroyer. Now he walks a different path. One of the hunter – seeking out and eliminating threats to the Mutant race with extreme prejudice. And the Master of Magnetism is more than ready to get his hands dirty in the service of his people.

“He’s not above breaking the law, stretching the limits of what is moral and putting evil to work for good,” stated Bunn in an interview with Marvel.com. “How readers interpret his actions, whether they see him as a hero, anti-hero, or villain, is one of the things I’m really excited about with this book.”
