Alex Paknadel discusses X-Men: Incursions and multiverse storytelling
Writer Alex Paknadel discusses his upcoming one-shot, X-Men: Incursions, which explores the collision between the Days of Future Past and House of M realities. The story serves as part of a lead-up to the events of Secret Wars.
Paknadel explains that balancing two distinct alternate realities within a single issue requires strict thematic focus and the use of a strong POV character. By centering the narrative on Kate Pryde, the story highlights the emotional contrast between a dystopian world and a mutant utopia. The project, illustrated by Jim Towe, challenges the writer to distill complex continuity into a singular, resonant dramatic question. This release is part of a broader series of one-shots depicting various multiversal collisions.
