Throughout the history of the X-Men, theres been one constant: Charles Xavier makes everyones lives just absolute hell. Sooner or later, everyone in his circle finds a reason to hate him, and then he goes away to ruin someone elses life until his students and surrogate family need him again. After terrorizing his fellow mutants on Earth the last few years, Charles is doing the next worse thing and spreading his special brand of chaos to the stars. On Friday, Marvel revealed Charles and his frequent lover Lilandra of the Shiar Empire will be major players in the upcoming Imperialcomic. If you havent been keeping up with the X-Men in a while, Charles was imprisoned in his own institute after Krakoa fell and Orchis was defeated. During the recently endedX-Manhuntevent, he broke out and went on the run while suffering from a brain tumor thats been killing innocent people. The various X-Men teams fought individual mutants like Storm and Havok over whether to arrest or help him, but in the end, Xavier meets with Lilandra to jettison off to space and help their daughter Xandra. The big premise ofImperialwritten by Jonathan Hickman and drawn by Iban Coello and Federico Vicentiniis the sudden assassination of several major galactic leaders. So far, Marvels been mum on who specifically gets got, but in addition to being a chaos agent, one thing Charles tends to do is lead. Given Hickmans promise of this event being a huge shakeup for the comics cosmic side, making Xavier a big player in that landscape would certainly fit the bill. But will the various empires of the galaxy survive whatever he puts them through before he dips back to Earth? Well find out more whenImperialkicks off on June 4. Want more io9 news?
