When the dust settles from the X-Men’s Schism, a line has been drawn, and every mutant must choose. Who will they follow — XXXXXX or Wolverine? Either way, with mutantkind cut in two, things will never be the same. Setting the stage for this month’s Wolverine & The X-Men #1 and November’s all-new Uncanny X-Men #1, Kieron Gillen and Billy Tan take us through the ranks of the X-Men as they choose their destiny.

“Eulogy” After the hammer-blow of FEAR ITSELF and the violence of SCHISM, it can't go on. It's the end of the Uncanny X-Men. And who better to provide a stirring eulogy than... MISTER SINISTER? Join us for the end of the industry-shaping series with the return of the 19th century's finest morally dubious scientist.

“Five Miles South of the Universe” Surrounded by an alien army who would see him dead and trapped on a space station that’s falling into a collapsing star, Havok’s reunion with his fellow X-Men may be a short-lived one. With time running out, what sacrifice will one X-Man make to save the lives of their teammates?

That Uncanny X-Men cover was announced many weeks ago, and I still cannot accept Marvel allowed THAT for the cover of the last issue of one of its most memorable books. Granted, it's just going to be renumbered, but Uncanny still deserved better than that.

I hope Psylocke gets a good panel time in X-Men Regenesis. Also, Uncanny X-Force's solicitation says that the team needs to regroup, so we can understand now why she wasn't mentioned in the solicitation for the previous issue. That means Betsy will likely return for the end of the arc... which is great; I hope Remender keeps writing her for many and many months to come!
