TheX - Menreboot from Marvel Comics has call for reader to bear some seriouslyoutlandishideas , but the strangest of all may be that Apocalypse – the greatestX - Menvillain ever – is giving up his villainous , wild manner for goodness . To do what , you might ask ? To become a scholarly non-Christian priest . Seriously .
That bollock was correct rolling whenthe X - humans welcomed their worst villainsand mutant killers to their Modern homeland of Krakoa , offering a sweet offset . And to drive home the point , it was Charles Xavier himself who shake hands with Apocalypse , laud a truce . Now that Apocalypse is taking his smudge inthe newExcaliburcomicseries , writer Tini Howard is confirm his handshake with Xavier is no deceit at all . The X - Men may have a traitorin their thick , but it is n’t En Sabah Nur .
Howard put up her verbal description of the changed Apocalypse in an consultation withEW , evidently excited about the fib he will make possible in this new mutant geezerhood . Because after all , when the mutants have ascended to the prevailing species on the planet … what role will Apocalypse playthen ? Howard offers a tease of what ’s to come :
He ’s always been refer with the ascension of mutants and it ’s not that he feel as though his study is done now . It ’s quite the reverse ; it ’s that his workplace must change . He was a superior general when he had to be a general , and now that the fight has changed , his maneuver have change . We ’re gon na see an Revelation who ’s a bookman and is someone who is able-bodied to work for the greatness of mutantkind as a thinker , as an artist , as a priest . We ’ll see him in these roles we ’ve never look him in before .
I ’m very , very proud of what we ’re doing and where we ’re conk with Apocalypse . I ’m working very closely with Jonathan on what we think and sense about him and what his journey is . It ’s really interesting to give a lineament like that a journey . Whether it ’s a paladin ’s journey or whether he ’s Walter White will be something we ’ll see as it goes on . But he ’s contend for his house too .
Excalibur # 1will be available at your local risible book shop on October 30th , 2019 , or direct fromMarvel Comics .
