The dark bond between mutantkind and magic unleashes a terrifying new threat on the Marvel Universe this November in X-Orcists, a new five-issue limited series by writer Ashley Allen<\/a> and artist Germ\u00e1n Peralta<\/a>. The creative team behind\u00a0Magik\u00a0<\/a>and\u00a0Magik & Colossus\u00a0<\/a>reunite for the next chapter in their Magik saga as Illyana Rasputin confronts a demonic invasion from the realm she once ruled. But this time, she won\u2019t stand alone. Fellow X-Man Juggernaut, rival sorceress Madelyne Pryor, and a powerful lineup of mystical heroes join forces with Magik to battle a major X-Men supervillain whose return could unravel mutant magic forever.<\/p>\n

DEMONS, BEWARE\u2026 the X-Orcists, are here!<\/p>\n

When a demon escapes Limbo and begins terrorizing humans and mutants alike, Magik and Juggernaut of the X-Men team up with Madelyne Pryor, the Queen of Limbo, to take it down. But this demon is unlike anything they\u2019ve ever seen before, and they\u2019re going to need help to stop its ruinous rampage.<\/p>\n

On the latest evolution of her work on Magik, Allen said, \u201cRound three, baby! In all seriousness, I\u2019m incredibly grateful to continue this journey with Germ\u00e1n and the rest of the\u00a0Magik\u00a0team, telling the story of a character so close to my and fans\u2019 hearts. Magik and Madelyne are both women who have been told what their paths should be, only to choose their own destinies. Exploring this has been such a powerful and rewarding experience and I\u2019m excited for fans to see these two characters reclaim their power, evolve from their pasts, and discover what it means to truly wield themselves.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cIf you had told me as a kid that I would be drawing X-Men comics, I wouldn\u2019t have believed it,\u201d Peralta shared. \u201cThis is a special X-Book exploring the mystical and dark side of the mutant world\u2014what more could I ask for? Well, I think just one thing, and luckily, that happened too: having Ashley Allen again as the writer!\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI really enjoy working with Ashley,\u201d he continued. \u201cShe perfectly understands the characters, not just their powers and how to use them, but also their emotions and motivations. I couldn\u2019t imagine a better partner to embark on this new journey with our beloved Illyana. I hope you enjoy reading it as much as we are making it.\u201d<\/p>\n
