COMICS: "X-Termination" Begins In First Look At AGE OF APOCALYPSE #13

I'm confused, i thought Kurt was dead.

Kurt from 616 universe is still dead(suprisingly long time), this is Nightcrawler from Age of Apocalypse universe. In AoA-universe Nightcrawler is a bit different, his name for expamle is not Kurt Wagner, it's Kurt Darkholme.

i always loved the nightcrawler character but never kept up with the story, given ive obviously missed alot. Could some one please suggest titles to read for the death of NC and the inroduction to the AOA and AOAnightcrawler. would be much appriecied

@The14thAvenger He died in "Second Coming" which is an essential Xmen read. It involves Hope, Cable and the brink of Mutants destruction. Really recommend it. Especially when Xforce must go to the future and what they see.

AoA Nightcrawler you have to read AoA. So you have to read LEGION QUEST. Which is a 4 parter that tells the story of Xavier's son going to the past to try to help accomplish Xavier's dream. What he does is MASSIVELY screw up the time line creating AoA.

After that you must read AoA which consists of Xmen Alpha, and the 4 part Amazing Xmen and Astonishing Xmen and finally Xmen Omega.

You'll get the full idea of AoA and Nightcrawler. ..

Oh wait. Xforce actually went back there and met Weapon Omega(New Apocolypse). I believe that's in the "Uncanny Xforce AoA " story. It's right after the "Dark Angle saga. Maybe issue 18 19?

Anyway. There is all your AoA needs.

not only does marvel always have to use events to sell their books but now they just redo the same ones over and over.

This whole thing is stupid. AOA was destroyed at the end of the original story in the 90's. This is just flogging an old idea for nostalgia-based sales.
