Marvel Comics Promises that The Exterminated Won't Spoil Extermination #5

Published Fri, 30 Nov 2018 08:30:13 -0600

When the Ed Brisson and Pepe Larraz mini-series, Extermination was announced by Marvel Comics, dealing with the fate of the O5, the original five X-Men brought forward in time and messing up the timeline completely.

The final issue was meant to have been published on Wednesday on the back of one hell of a cliffhanger – but it's running late. And currently scheduled for December the 19th.

However the epilogue one-shot X-Men: The Exterminated is still scheduled for December the 5th.

As a result, Marvel Comics have told retailers who have asked that the events of Extermination #5 won't be spoiled by The Exterminated. Somehow. Well, I suppose, no more than Uncanny X-Men does with the five's notable but uncommented absence…

• It all ends here!!!
• The original five X-Men have taken the fight back to Ahab…but at what cost?
