RessurXion is just around the corner, but before the worlds of Marvel Comics' Inhumans and mutants are realigned, the two super-powered groups are destined to clash in the "Inhumans VS X-Men" event series.
The clashes won't be confined to the main comic, either; "Uncanny Inhumans" will see its fair share of fisticuffs, thanks to "IvX" co-writer Charles Soule and artist Kim Jacinto. And, as part of the event tie-in, the next three issues of the series will be graced by variant covers from the team of Declan Shalvey and Jordie Bellaire.
