This October the DNX event continues as the X-Men and Fantastic Four continue their fight against the villainous 3K. Whither 4K and HDTV? Maybe in November.
In the second act of the event, Marvel is teasing that, the Fantastic Four have amnesia, the X-Men are under attack by John Greycrow, and Psylocke is stalking a monster.
“In all the high drama and high action of DNX, we’re also taking the time to zoom in on more personal moments, finding time to explore slightly smaller stories taking place at the same time as the big event,” said writer Jed MacKay via press release. “X-MEN #39 sees John Greycrow, resolutely NOT an X-Man, having to step up, while #40 explores Psylocke’s attitudes towards life and death- and when to make the choice between them. These both tie into the larger themes of the DNX event and move forward story threads that have been brewing for some time!”
Added Fantastic Four writer Ryan North, “This is a really fun conclusion to a two-parter which, while obviously acting as an important part of DNX, also stands on its own as a Fantastic Four story for everyone else. I get to bring the FF to some places they don’t normally go – both physically and emotionally – while at the same time saving the X-Men and the world. Jed has been a delight to work with, and we have commiserated over the challenge of writing Beast and Mr. Fantastic in the same room. It’s hard enough writing one smart guy, but two? There should only be one smart guy in every universe.”

In X-Men #39, enemies put their sights on the X-Men’s home base — the Factory, in Alaska. But the Factory is not undefended…and John Greycrow is an army unto himself!
In X-MEN #40, alone on what could be a flying tomb, Psylocke stalks a mysterious monster on a solo mission for answers. But the answers she finds may raise only further questions.
In FANTASTIC FOUR #18, The Fantastic Four are lost, with no memory of who they are or why they’re there — but now they know they need to find out, fast —because Magneto’s life hangs in the balance. But without identities — or a clear understanding of their powers — the FF are as much a danger to themselves as they are their opponents.
