A Guided Tour of Krakoa — X-Men Book Club Starting June 1

The Marvel Unlimited Community Discord is kicking off a guided book club through the Krakoa era of the X-Men, beginning June 1, 2026!

Whether you’re:

  • Brand new to comics
  • Interested in the X-Men, but overwhelmed by where to start
  • A longtime X-Pert
  • Or just excited to revisit the Krakoa era, 7 years on...

…this book club is for you!

What to expect:

  • Core reading plan of roughly 5 issues per week (about one trade paperback)
  • Plenty of additional side-reading options each week to dive deeper into the era and/or history of the X-Men
  • Discord community discussion, theories, reactions, and recommendations

We hope to make one of the X-Men's most ambitious eras approachable, fun, and communal. Krakoa is for all readers!

On June 1, we will kick-off with the first part of the House of X / Powers of X launch event!

Join us in the MU Community Discord now!

Discord Invite Link: discord.gg/9Th94eeCxC

The "Guided Tour of Krakoa" book club channel is already open with some pre-reading suggestions, so feel free to get started!

Hey everyone! I'm sure you've seen the old graphic that circulates consistently for the Annihilation Era reading order. I've been wanting to make some of my own updates for a while, and finally did so. Some of the primary changes:

  • Issue naming now matches Marvel Unlimited
  • Updated issue ordering and selection in a few sections
  • Design update

Big thanks to the original anonymous creators, along with @ Thom, and a few others on the Marvel Unlimited Community discord! If you're looking for a place to talk comics, and especially read this order, feel free to come join us over at https://discord.gg/8rrepgK3bB!

I've been told that previous graphics can look blurry for some, so here's a direct image link - https://i.postimg.cc/8pfMvNdN/Annihilation-Reading-Order-Graphic-Reading-Order-Graphic-PNG-288.jpg

And if you'd like to view the Google Sheet directly (with a text-only order on the second tab), here's the link - https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fOtlBe1KVPqvnyFCNLeisoeaT616s7B0Wga4xcSFhJY/edit?usp=sharing

Edit: fun update, I accidentally clipped out a row. The spreadsheet is up to date, and I'll be updating the graphic, but Guardians of the Galaxy (2008) #7-12 should be in the War of Kings column between Secret Invasion: Inhumans and Secret Invasion: War of Kings 😞
