Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Warning: contains spoilers for Fall of the House of X #5The mutants of Marvel have had a terrible few months, with many of the X-Men dying at the hands of Orchis, leading to the Fall of X and the rise of the monstrous Engima Dominion. Yet, throughout all the tragedy, mutantkind has much to celebrate after winning their war against Orchis.
First revealed by artist Kaare Andrews, the three connecting Pool Party variant covers feature 18 of the X-Men's most beloved mutants and will grace the covers of X-Men #25 - the final issue of the Krakoan Era - as well as X-Men #1 and NYX #1, the first issues of the new From the Ashes era. Kaare Andrews' variant cover is a perfect homage to Lee's epic piece, featuring the same ridiculous 90's energy and clothing as the original. Highlights include Cyclops using his optic blasts to flip hamburgers, a massive Cable lifting even larger weights, and Psylocke reading a copy of the magazine "Vague." However, the most hilarious part of the entire connected cover may be the alien dragon Lockheed, wearing an X-Men bib and happily munching on a drumstick.
