Marvel Comics' X-Men line is about to kick off the first crossover of its current 'Dawn of X' era in September with 'X of Swords,' an event running through nearly all of the X-Men and X-Men adjacent titles through October and November. 

Now, Marvel has released an advance look at the solicitations for its November X-Men comics.

Marvel's November X-Men solicitation previews include the solicits for X-Men #14 and 15, Marauders #14 and 15, Excalibur #14 and 15, Wolverine #7, X-Force #14, Hellions #6, Cable #6, and X of Swords: Destruction #1. 

As is typical of 'X of Swords' solicitations, the cryptic text only hints at the actual content of the issues, with some descriptions invoking aspects of the Tarot card theming that accompanies 'X of Swords.'
