Yes, I guess they mean the next big thing, after the upcoming..err, next big thing which will see The Avengers Take On The X-Men. Anyway, back in 1995 we had the first "AOA" crossover event which saw the incredibly powerful mutant Apocalypse plunge Earth into an alternate dystopian timeline. The ramifications of that story are still felt in the Marvel Universe today and now we are about to have another. This time spinning off from the recent Dark Angel from the pages of Uncanny X-Force. Here is some brand new preview art for the story..

"We start sort of spinning out of Uncanny X-Force. There are events that happen there that we directly fall out of. Basically, we open with Weapon X, who's the Big Bad Overlord of the Age of Apocalypse world, and he's just sort of wiped out the last enclave of humanity."
