X-Men #41 Drags the Fantastic Four Into a DNX Showdown With O*N*E's Quarantine Lockdown

Marvel's X-Men line keeps grinding forward on the fallout from Age of Revelation, and X-Men #41, out November 11 from writer Jed MacKay and artist Netho Diaz, puts that fallout squarely in the path of another team. As part of the five-issue DNX event, the X-Men pull in the Fantastic Four to help save one of their own, only to run into O*N*E, the government's mutant-affairs agency, which has already locked down a quarantine zone around whatever the White Beast is about to unleash.

The event's engine is the rivalry between Cyclops's X-Men and 3K, a rival faction led by another of Xavier's original heirs. Both sides returned from a glimpse of the dark Age of Revelation future with opposite plans for it: Cyclops wants to stop that future from happening, while 3K wants to steer straight toward it. The White Beast's threat to release the X-Virus in a populated area is the opening move, and O*N*E's quarantine mandate isn't aligned with either side's goals, which is what turns a rescue mission into a three-way standoff.

The issue carries a loaded variant stack, from Carmen Carnero's Indiana Jones crossover cover to Peach Momoko's Momo-Tone take and a 1:25 incentive from David Messina, alongside the standard Diaz/Parsons/Hesli cover. It ships the same week as Wade Wilson: Deadpool #10, X-Men United #9, and Generation X-23 #10, as Marvel keeps multiple corners of the mutant line moving in lockstep.
