As a seasoned gamer and longtime follower of the X-Men saga, I must say that the latest twist in the X-Men: Heir of Apocalypse series has left me utterly astounded! I never saw Doug Ramsey, a character I’ve cheered for since his days as a New Mutant, transforming into the sinister Revelation. It’s like playing a game of Marvel Mutants and suddenly finding out that your favorite character has turned into an NPC (Non-Player Character) boss!
A surprising addition to the X-Men group has emerged as a potential successor and replacement for Apocalypse, following the collapse of X and Krakoa. The X-Men series is being rebooted with a fresh lineup of titles and creative teams, including Jed MacKay and Ryan Stegman’s “X-Men” and “NYX,” as well as Collin Kelly, Jackson Lanzing, and Francesco Mortarino’s offerings. However, before the main X-Men: From the Ashes series, there will be a prelude titled X-Men: Heir of Apocalypse. In this story, Apocalypse is organizing a competition to find his successor, with only a few contenders remaining. But only one will ultimately claim the title as the new Apocalypse.
🚨 Attention readers! This passage discloses key plot points from X-Men: Heir of Apocalypse issue 4. Proceed with caution if you wish to avoid spoilers! Enjoy the read responsibly!
X-Men: Heir of Apocalypse #4
With Wolverine’s contenders – Laura Kinney, Rictor, Emma Frost, Archangel, and Penance (Monet St. Croix) – waiting for the victor on Arakko, Cable and Forge are transported to join them. Consequently, the battle narrows down to Mirage and Cypher. However, when Dani is beamed to Arakko, it leaves Douglas Ramsey with a decisive decision to make.
Apocalypse introduces his heir, Douglas Ramsey aka Revelation
In this scenario, Douglas Ramsey undergoes a significant transformation, becoming the heir of Apocalypse, who is known as Revelation. His wife, Bei the Blood Moon, and close friend, Warlock, witness this change. Both Bei the Blood Moon and Warlock are now followers of Revelation. The physical alterations Douglas experiences include adopting the distinctive tattoos that Apocalypse bears on his head and arms. He is now attired in a golden cloak and boots to match.
In a different phrasing, “I won’t rule like you did, with power and strength,” says Revelation to Apocalypse in Revelation. However, Apocalypse expresses his disappointment if Revelation doesn’t follow suit. Unlike Apocalypse who ruled with an iron fist, Revelation intends to use diplomacy and the power of language as a mutant ability to achieve his objectives. Revelation predicts that new leaders among the mutants will emerge from the remnants of Krakoa. If these new leaders refuse to heed his instructions, Revelation promises to show them their mistakes. The ending of X-Men: Heir of the Apocalypse #4 hints that Revelation will reappear in the future.
As a longtime fan of the X-Men franchise, I must admit that the recent announcement about Doug Ramsey and his transformation into a potential villain has left me quite intrigued. Having followed this series for decades, I have grown attached to the characters and their stories, so seeing one of our own take on such a dramatic role is both exciting and nerve-wracking. The idea that former New Mutant members could turn against us adds an unexpected twist to the narrative, making it even more captivating.
