Ed Brubaker and Billy Tan are poised to take the X-Men to dazzling new heights as they take over Uncanny X-Men with issue #475. In fact, they’re taking the X-Men so high, they’re launching them into outer space.

Beginning in Uncanny X-Men #475, a new team led by Professor X take off to the other end of the universe to stop a revenge-hungry Vulcan. It’s up to the team comprised of Nightcrawler, Marvel Girl, Warpath, Havok, Polaris, and a surprise member to save the Shi’ar empire from his wrath.

Spinning out of the pages of X-Men: Deadly Genesis comes “The Rise and Fall of the Shi’ar Empire,” a year-long story of revenge and redemption starting in Uncanny X-Men #475.

Believe the hype: Ed Brubaker is at the top of his game and Billy Tan has taken his to an all-new level, knocking it out of the park. Uncanny X-Men #475 is the start of a new direction for a new team of X-Men. You know you can’t afford to miss X-history in the making.

Listen to an Ed Brubaker podcast on Uncanny X-Men.
