**A LITTLE SPOILER-Y** CBR recap of Death of X/IvX call
LIVE: X-Men and Inhumans Go To War In Death of X
Launching on October 5, the event limited series "Death of X" will finally reveal just what happened between the X-Men and the Inhumans during the eight-month gap following "Secret Wars." The series, which comes from writers Charles Soule and Jeff Lemire and artist Aaron Kuder, will also answer questions surrounding Cyclops' death and what happened to Emma Frost.

Not too specific in the spoilers, but one could consider them as such, so adding the tag.
Anyway, this made me more excited for the Death of X and IvX events than I was before.




It's like they want me to never buy another X-Men comic. (Aside from '92.)
Do you mind elaborating on why? If not, cool. I'm just curious.
I'm a big Cyclops fan, so an interview that seemingly closes the door on his death in death of X being a ruse or a temporary shelving is tremendously disappointing.
Not all that interested in buying and reading a four issue snuff comic I guess?
Cool. The snuff angle I get--though I hope it won't just be that.
Maybe I misread the post (or misread your comment), but I always assume that any "deaths" will be undone when necessary to the narrative. Regardless of how certain a creator is that the death will stick, someone will come along and either have a really good creative idea or a really compelling business idea that will undo it.
I actually find it pretty exciting that a lot of classic characters -- Professor X, Wolverine, Jean, Cyclops -- are dead at this point, and while assuredly they'll all be back someday it doesn't seem to be happening all that quickly. I'm a big fan of the rotating-cast, change-over-time model of X-Men storytelling and anything that seems to be advancing that a bit and putting some heft behind character deaths and changes is interesting to me.
It's kind of an exhausting article to read when I just want to up and know what happened already, you know? This story's been coming for too long and at this point I just wanna find out just to get it out of the way.
