Since as far back as I can remember the X-Men have been a part of my comic book loving life. The animated series back in the 90's helped catapult me into this world, but the comics themselves seduced me into loving this team of extraordinarily evolved people. Probably my favorite run of books was the Age of Apocalypse series in which we see a world where Charles Xavier died before he could see his goal of uniting Mutants and Humans in peace. Also in this world, Apocalypse has taken control of the planet and rules with a vicious and evil fist. And now...now we get to see Apocalypse on the big screen for the first time and he's bringing his four horsemen with him. Today we got the first trailer of the latest X-Men film directed by Bryan Singer. Check it out below the official synopsis of the movie:
