Marvel Comics will collect a classic early 90s storyline with lots of Jim Lee art in X-Men: X-Tinction Agenda Omnibus. Written and drawn by the top talent of the period, the storyline threatens the X-Men, New Mutants, and X-Factor with X-Tinction. Cameron Hodge pulls the strings as the X-teams are captured, brainwashed, stripped of their powers and forced into combat.
Other material in the collection includes the sequel to “Days of Future Past,” in which the X-Teams and Fantastic Four encounter an adult Franklin Richards traveling back in time from a horrific future; and rare tales from the X-Men’s late-80s Australian era, including “Colossus: God’s Country.”
Talent on the books includes writers Chris Claremont, Louise Simonson, Fabien Nicieza, Terry Kavanagh, Watler Simonson, Ann Nocenti, Howard Mackie, Scott Lobdell, Roy Thomas, Dann Thomas, and Michael Higgins; and pencillers Jim Lee, Rob Liefeld, Jon Bogdanove, Arthur Adams, Tom Raney, Dave Cockrum, Butch Guice, Terry Shoemaker, Guang Yap, Mark Bagley, Rick Leonardi, Rich Buckler, Larry Alexander, and MC Wyman.
