Okay, okay, I know I still haven’t finished my Go-Beerkada: The Rise Of The Jhologs review yet, but this piece of news caught my eye and I really can’t resist blogging about it.

So, over at Marvel, the X-Books are preparing for this big event called X Necrosha. Here’s the solicitation for the one shot that’ll kick off the crossover, helpfully provided by IGN:

Death has come to the X-Men. The one true Black Queen has returned, and she wants nothing less than every soul of mutantkind…dead or alive. And everyone that’s ever crossed Selene is going to pay. The dead rise, familiar faces haunt mutants across the world, and Selene takes her final steps into becoming a god.

It all begins here in a full-length X-FORCE extravaganza, and continues in the pages of next month’s issue of X-FORCE…but the shockwaves of this terrifying event will be felt in NEW MUTANTS and X-MEN: LEGACY as well, and those reverberations begin here in two all-new bonus tales.

… really, Marvel? I love zombies and all, but… what the flying fuck?

   you might ba right about this being a rip-off of the blackest night..i’m not a big DC guy so i’m just wondering when it started? The thing with selene started around 8 months ago..x-force 11 if i remember correctly..

   Blackest Night started two years ago, at the ending of Sinestro Corps War.

   I’m not saying they ripped off Blackest Night, but they could’ve used a different concept, especially now that Blackest Night is in full swing at DC.
