X of Swords: Chapter 1 – Free Comic Book Day X-Men (2020) | Krakin' Krakoa #61



We are officially on the march to X of Swords. The X-Men 2020 Free Comic Book Day release is a hardcore deep in the weeds tease for X of Swords, and if you don’t have a degree in Hickmanology, AND strong familiarity with the whole Dawn of X (particularly Tini Howard and Marcus To’s work on Excalibur), this issue is going to be confusing as hell! I have *both* those things, and I’m still floundering around among the clues, vague reveals, and new developments. It’s the good kind of mystery at least!

Today I’ll answer:

+ What the heck is happening in the X-Men Free Comic Book Day story!
+ What do the Tarot Cards mean?
+ Who are the mystery characters teased as 5 of the 10 players to focus on in X of Swords!

Spoilers for discussed comics may follow!
