On December 4, 2023, Marvel Comics shared a sneak peek at what True Believers can expect from the upcoming issues of Fall of the House of X #3 and Rise of the Powers of X #3, available March 2024, both as part of five-issue limited series. Excitingly, both preview covers for the #3s feature some revenge-teasing details: the first features a face-stabbing claw of Wolverine against what appears to be Dr. Stasis, and the other features a gun pointed at Moira McTaggert.
The dual series will conclude the ‘Fall of X’ run, ending the Krakoan era. Gerry Duggan and Lucas Werneck will be working on Fall of the House of X. Meanwhile, Kieron Gillen and R.B. Silva are two of the creators of Rise of the Powers of X. The series will also branch into various X-Men spinoffs.
You can check out the official press release and covers below:
Due to the sinister machinations of the anti-mutant supervillain group Orchis, mutantkind has fallen harder than ever before but soon, the X-Men will have their revenge as the revolutionary Krakoan age comes to its explosive end! Just as Jonathan Hickman boldly kicked it off in 2019 in twin series, HOUSE OF X and POWERS OF X, the finale of the Krakoan Age will be told across two intertwined series starting in January—FALL OF THE HOUSE OF X and RISE OF THE POWERS OF X. The two five-issue limited series will deliver a breathtaking saga across mutant history and future as the X-Men of today and tomorrow wage the final war against extinction across their entire existence!
Gerry Duggan and Lucas Werneck’s FALL OF THE HOUSE OF X sees a classic lineup of X-Men embark on a daring mission to bring down Orchis for good and restore hope to mutantkind. Meanwhile Kieron Gillen and R.B. Silva’s RISE OF THE POWERS OF X takes readers on a sense-shattering journey beyond space and time as an ambitious plan is put in action to prevent the darkest of futures from coming to pass. It’s a who’s who of current mutant mastermind storytellers, and they’re holding nothing back as they close out Krakoa down in epic style and position the X-Men for their all-new era launching later next year!
Today, fans can peek ahead at the covers for FALL OF THE HOUSE OF X #3 and RISE OF THE POWERS OF X #3, both arriving in March.
In FALL OF THE HOUSE OF X #3, the end has truly begun! The X-Men have taken all they’re willing to take from Orchis… Now it’s time for them to do the dishing out. Unfortunately, just when it seems like one threat is over…another rises to take its place. The final battle of the Krakoan age rages as two series that are one move toward a crash that will echo across the universe…
In RISE OF THE POWERS OF X #3, discover that the real end is never beginning! The past, present and future of Krakoa all rests in a trigger finger. The scenario you prayed would never happen plays out as two series that are one move toward a crash that will reverberate outside the universe…

Yeah, I don’t understand why they got to do separate miniseries for this. Why can’t this just run in the regular X-Men title until it ends, and then they can reboot the book like they always do and start over?
