Story and art by Dougal Dixon.

First published in 1981, After Man is paleontologist Dougal Dixon's vision of an 'alternative evolution': one without mankind. In the foreword for this edition, he notes, "the book was about the natural forces of evolution, and man ... had too much of an influence .... With the removal of this interference I was able to let nature get back to work". While some of the creatures seem fantastical, others don't seem so very far-fetched.

Dixon: "There are now the walking bats of New Zealand ... (and) then there are the snakes in Mexico that live in caves and snatch flying bats out of the air, just like 'The Anchorwhip'".

1st printing. Collects Age of X-Man: Prisoner X (2019 Marvel) #1-5.

Written by Vita Ayala. Art by German Peralta. Cover by Patrick Zircher.

The Danger Room holds the worst of the worst in the Age of X-Man!

When you break the law in paradise, you aren't sent to just any prison. You're sent to the Danger Room - a penitentiary filled with the roughest and meanest mutants who don't fit into X-Man's utopia. They each have a reason for being there, and they're all primed and ready to kill each other. But that's about to change, because the Danger Room's newest prisoner has just arrived: Lucas Bishop! As Bishop navigates the various mutant gangs to find the truth beyond the walls of the prison, can he trust the other inmates - including Magneto's daughter, Polaris? Or will Bishop have to break out on his own? One way or another, these walls are coming down!

Kurt Wagner is the star of the Age of X-Man!

Personal trainer Kylun! Leading lady Meggan! And then there's Mystique... But something is rotten in Tinseltown, and tabloid terror is in store when it's discovered that our leading man has a secret! Can Nightcrawler's squeaky-clean public image survive an explosive affair? Or will it be the final curtain for Kurt as the Age of X-Man crumbles around him?!

Written by Leah Williams. Art by Georges Jeanty and Roberto Poggi. Cover by Rahzzah.

The X-Tremists keep the peace in the Age of X-Man!

A perfect world doesn't just...happen. It needs to be cultivated. That's where the X-Tremists come in. Psylocke, Iceman, Northstar, Blob, Jubilee and Moneta protect people from threats they won't ever even know existed, including the most insidious threat of all: love! But even as Department X continues its work of purging and revising the ill-fitting elements of society, an encounter with a pregnant rebel begins eating away at the team from within! Worse still, can two members of the squad resist falling prey to the very thing they're fighting to prevent? Some X-Tremists want to know love. Some X-Tremists want to know freedom. But some X-Tremists just want to watch the world burn.
