The X-Men have recently set up shop in a new headquarters, an abandoned Sentinel factory in Merle, Alaska, in the shadow of a massive frozen Sentinel. But how did they get there, and happened with the Sentinel that looms over the X-Men’s new headquarters? Those questions will potentially receive answers in X-Men #7, and we’ve now got a preview of interior pages from the issue.
The unlettered pages from writer Jed MacKay, guest artist Netho Diaz, and colorist Marte Gracia show X-Men co-leaders Cyclops and Magneto getting into a heated argument with each other before having to turn and take down the massive Sentinel, apparently showing some of the origin of the new X-Men headquarters and their mission.
Check out the gallery of pages, as well as the cover by regular series artist Ryan Stegman:
“The Iron Night! What does the town of Merle, Alaska owe the X-Men?” asks Marvel’s official description of X-Men #7. “Where did the defunct Sentinel looming over the town come from? And more importantly, what was it after?”
These questions have lingered since the start of theongoing relaunch of the X-Men line, which focuses on three flagship titles. X-Men is the first of those titles, and so far, the story has focused largely on the idea of adult humans suddenly manifesting mutant powers. That mystery just took a turn in the most recent issue of the title,X-Men #5, which reintroduced Cassandra Novaas the villain behind the late activations of X-genes.
X-Men #7 goes on sale November 6.
