Talk about your sinful covers! Featured as Marvel’s newest story of the X-Men, Sins of Sinister is the newest mutant-related event that will see a new Comics run and complete change as to where the fate of mutantkind is heading. It’s one that sees Mister Sinister take the reign, with a a one-shot series that will later spin off into three limited series: Immoral X-Men, Storm and the Brotherhood of Mutants, and Nightcrawlers. Which are basically, more or less, all of the big X-Men titles announced for 2023 and beyond.
Originally Announced at NYCC 2022, the series sees Mister Sinister’s plans forever change the X-Men universe. One that sees the stories of Immortal X-Men, X-Men Red, and Legion of X forever changed into the upcoming iterations to come, as told in a quote at Comic Con by Screenrant:
“POWERS OF ESSEX! It’s the end of the world as we know it, and at least Sinister feels fine. For now. Can that last? Especially when we discover that he really is his own worst enemy… The universe-melting X-event begins here, in a horror timeline that makes Age of Apocalypse look like the X-Men Swimsuit Special. Join Kieron Gillen (IMMORTAL X-MEN, AXE: JUDGMENT DAY) as he kicks off the X-Men crossover Sinister has been planning since the beginning…and is going to have to see through to the bitter end.”
In this one-shot by beloved Marvel creators Kieron Gillen and Lucas Werneck, this timeline will in fact feature a story where Mr. Sinister that’s been teased as being darker than Age of Apocalypse. Emma Frost will be one of the heroes featured in this story, and in a new variant cover for the upcoming story, the White Queen sits atop her throne as she wonders the best way of taking down Mr. Sinister.
To mark the occasion, Stanley “Artgerm” Lau has brought a variant cover for SINS OF SINISTER #1 featuring Emma Frost looking… well, just take a look. As it’ll also be available as a virgin variant cover as well. For thirsty fans of… more art!
