The mining of key events from the Marvel Universe over the years continues in June as part of Secret Wars with the debut of Years of Future Past. The new series is going to play havoc with things once again under the guidance of writer Marguerite Bennett and artist Mike Norton as they “take you back to the apocalyptic future of one of the most famous X-Men tales of all time – and the tragedies that come with it.”
“Harkening back to the source material, this Kitty Pryde is a grown woman – now called Kate Pryde,” says writer Marguerite Bennett in an interview with Marvel.com. “She is no longer a desperate girl with nothing to lose, she’s a mother and wife with more to lose than ever before. On her shoulders rest not only the lives of her family and friends and a solitary mission, but the survival of her entire people who are dwindling to nothingness through the purges of the Sentinels and the abuses of the regime in power.”
Plot concept: Amid the ravaged hellscape of Battleworld’s Sentinel Territories, armies of armored behemoths patrol the skies and streets. Their mission – exterminate all mutants! Amid the rubble walks Kate Pryde – mother, warrior, X-Man. A heroine tried and true and tested by war, she stokes the fires of revolution.
Rebellion is in the air, and Kate Pryde will do anything to ensure the survival of her people – including breaking the remaining X-Men out of their military prison! But is she willing to risk everything, even her family? The answers lie within this June in YEARS OF FUTURE PAST #1!
