In January 5’s Inferno #4 the publisher promises readers will see the resolution to Mystique’s quest to be reunited with her wife Destiny, and get more revelations from the past lives of Moira MacTaggert, learn untold secrets behind the founding of Krakoa, and more all while Nimrod makes his final move.
In Newsarama’s review of Inferno #1, Pierce Lydon commended Hickman for his follow-through in the plotlines he’s been setting up since 2019.
“Inferno follows in House of X/Powers of X‘s footsteps as the next big plateau in Hickman’s vision for the X-Men. It’s another watershed moment, and even though it’s basically a fastball thrown middle-middle, and we know it’s coming, he still manages to blow us away.
“In a medium where details and plot threads are teased forever and then forgotten or executed completely differently than they might have been originally intended, it’s exciting to get some follow-through.
“And for X-Men fans, that’s especially exciting, given the line’s historical penchant for rewriting things whole cloth as plans and personnel have changed. Somehow Inferno already feels as important as HoX/PoX. But in a way, much like the closing moments of this book, maybe that was always its destiny.”
