Marvel Comics is moving to the next phase of things with their January debut of the Amazing X-Men with their fifteenth issue as they’re bringing in something a little new. The cast of this series have already faced off against demon arms from Hell and ravenous hordes of Wendigos and now they’re bringing back something that hasn’t been seen in a bit. The issue brings the Juggernaut back into play as the main focus, which is coming from writer Chris Yost and artist Jorge Fornes.

While Yost remains tight-lipped about who those other characters might be he does give a few hints about what kinds of folks are being called. “A few of the strongest characters in the Marvel Universe get the call,” Yost tells Marvel.com. “But Cyttorak needs a specific kind of person… someone they can manipulate. Someone who craves the power.”

“Cyttorak wants an avatar,” Yost continues. “It’s a status thing among the other mystical entities/gods. All the cool other-dimensional powers have one. The return of the gem is part of the mystery, but the X-Men know that whatever Cyttorak wants, it’s probably not good.”

Plot concept: The story, called “The Once and Future Juggernaut” finds former wielders of the Gem of Cyttorak, Cain Marko and X-Man Peter “Colossus” Rasputin, getting the call to become the inter-dimensional power’s external force once again, but they’re not the only ones invited to the party.
