For those who just want to see the current franchise continue, I offer a few excerpts of concepts of X-Men: The Age of Apocalypse, the sequel to X-Men: The Last Stand.
The inspiration for this story is a combination between some of the most famous sagas in X-Men history, including Inferno and Legion Quest/Age of Apocalypse.
The following are not consecutive scenes, but just scattered portions. Draw your own conlusions from them:
Excerpt 1: A young man approaches Xavier's School looking to find the school's master. As he arrives, he looks around as if he's been there before, as if all is familiar to him when someone approaches from behind and puts their hand on his shoulder, it is Storm. The young man, startled releases a small concussive blast that knocks her several yards back, but only leaves her with a few bruises. The young man then runs to Storm to apologize and helps her up. She asks: "Who are you, and who are you looking for?", he replies: "It's me, Alex, Alex Summers. Don't you remember me? I'm here to pay respects to my brother." She then recognizes him, gives him a hug and escorts him into the mansion.
Excerpt 2: At an apartment in the Bronx, we find Erik Lensherr, formerly known as the deadly mutant, Magneto, asleep, but his sleep will soon be interrupted as a blast explodes through his window. He then wakes with fright as without his mutant abilities, he is helpless, as a young mutant floats through what is left of Erik's wall. Erik yells toward the mutant: "What do you want?", the mutant replies: "I want my father back!". As if only a warning, he turns and leaves.
Excerpt 3: Cairo, Egypt: As two archeologists are digging for the remains of what look to be the servants of the great pharoahs, they begin to feel the unstable land rumble as the arm of what looks to be a giant mummy is reaching to pull itself out. It then walks toward the two archaeologists, morphs into a being that has the appearance of a statue, grabs them both by the necks and tells them: "You are not fit to survive."
I'll post the rest later.
