Illyana you have been warned…again!

Storm’s Extraordinary X-Men fought to save the life of Apocalypse (yes, you read right) in this week’s issue 12. A greater evil could be growing within X-Haven.

Writer Jeff Lemire and artist Humberto Ramos delivered the latest chapter of Apocalypse Wars while giving another ominous warning about a threat that’s been building since their first issue.

Storm, Iceman, Jean Grey, Logan, Nightcrawler and Cerebra are trapped a thousand years in the future after pursuing hundreds of mutant embryos. In this Omega World Colossus had been transformed into a Horseman of Apocalypse.
