Assuming a similar wordplay to Powers of X — pronounced “Powers of 10” — it might be worth noting that the Ten of Swords is a Minor Arcana tarot card that represents destruction, with the swords traditionally representing being pinned down by mental anguish or a sense of hopelessness: feelings that aren’t entirely unknown to the X-Men in any given event storyline.
The crossover storyline was announced at Chicago’s C2E2 convention during the “Marvel Comics: X-Men” panel; although the length of X of Swords was revealed — 15 issues — no information about its launch was given beyond a July date, and no details of creators involved outside of Hickman. Mark Brooks illustrated the promotional image above, but even using that to try and find details might prove a fool’s errand; note that there are more than 10 characters to be found, each with their own swords.
