Fall of the House of X / Rise of the Powers of X Omnibus

Background. The mutant nation of Krakoa is ending. The humans have found a way to defeat resurrection. Orchis has infiltrated everything. The dream Moira MacTaggert spent ten lifetimes building is collapsing, and the X-Men face a choice: fight for Krakoa knowing it cannot be saved, or find a way to preserve something worth saving from the wreckage. Fall of the House of X and Rise of the Powers of X run simultaneously, telling the same story from two perspectives.

What's inside. Fall of the House of X #1–5 and Rise of the Powers of X #1–5, the complete conclusion of the Krakoa era by Kieron Gillen and Geoffrey Thorne, with art by Lucas Werneck, R.B. Silva and others. The definitive ending of the Hickman-initiated Krakoa saga. ISBN 978-1-302-95657-8.

Why it's worth reading. A great era deserves a great ending, and the Fall/Rise duology delivers one. Gillen resolves the Moira MacTaggert puzzle that Hickman established, gives every major Krakoan character their moment, and closes the era with the kind of emotional honesty that the best X-Men storytelling has always had. If you've invested in the complete Krakoa saga, this is the conclusion you've been reading toward. Essential final volume.
