Universe X is the sequel to Earth X, and the middle section of a huge trilogy.
It continues the basic plot threads from the previous series- In the Marvel Universe of the future, many of the heroes we know are dead, many more are changed beyond recognition, the population of the Earth has been mutated by the Terrigen Mists of The Inhumans, and The Celestial Plot has been foiled....
