Marvel reveals X-Men By Chris Claremont: Prelude to a Future Past one-shot.

      Marvel Comics is set to honor the iconic X-Men writer Chris Claremont and his groundbreaking Days of Future Past storyline this July with the release of X-Men By Chris Claremont: Prelude to a Future Past. This one-shot comic will compile the acclaimed story along with Claremont’s 2020 prelude, which was previously exclusive to the limited edition prestige hardcover Marvel Made Paragon Collection: Chris Claremont.

      Journey once more into the nightmarish future depicted in Days of Future Past through a revealing prelude crafted by the legendary writer and illustrated by his X-TREME X-MEN partner, Salvador Larroca! Learn how the surviving X-Men rescued one of their own, Rachel Summers, from her suffering as a Hound, and discover which unexpected characters played crucial roles in the mutant resistance. This will be presented alongside the original saga in which Claremont and John Byrne introduced their darkly dystopian vision of the future Marvel Universe — where Sentinels hunt mankind, and the X-Men stand as humanity’s last hope… until they fall! The oversized one-shot will also feature bonus content celebrating Chris Claremont's over fifty years in the comic book industry!

      X-Men By Chris Claremont: Prelude to a Future Past #1 is scheduled to be released on July 2nd, 2025.
