The One World of Darkness is White Wolf’s future

A good look at the X-Men: Apocalypse in the latest trailer
This isn’t our first look at X-Men: Apocalypse from Bryan Singer. This is our best look at the film, though, as we begin with Jean Grey seeing the end of the world in a vision, Professor X trying to reassure her… only to slowly understand just how dire the situation is indeed. The film is […]
