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.

X-Men: Age of Krakoa by Kieron Gillen Omnibus — Immortal X-Men and A.X.E.: Judgment Day. The Quiet Council of Krakoa, the Progenitor Celestial judging all humanity, Sinister's schemes from within. X-Men: Age of Krakoa by Kieron Gillen collects Immortal X-Men #1-18 and A.X.E.: Judgment Day #1-6 — Gillen's focused statement on the Krakoa era. The Quiet Council of Krakoa — Magneto, Xavier, Mystique, Emma Frost, Exodus, Sinister — navigating mutant politics while the Progenitor Celestial (reactivated by the Eternals) judges all of humanity and finds it wanting. The most philosophical X-Men story since Morrison. Gillen at the peak of his powers, with Lucas Werneck on art.

Uncanny X-Men by Kieron Gillen Omnibus is Cyclops at his most ideological: the Extinction Team is not a superhero roster but a deterrent. Emma Frost, Magneto, Namor, Colossus, Storm and Hope stand between mutantkind and extinction-level threats while Gillen turns Mister Sinister into a theatrical, genuinely modern menace. It is the sharpest bridge from Schism into Avengers vs. X-Men.
