Inhumans vs X-Men begins as Civil War II comes to a shocking end along with a ton of new number one issues from Marvel Now this November.

From the first big fight in IVX (the short-code if you will for Inhumans vs. X-Men) to the comic book comeback of Ghost Rider and a new Avengers after their rookie members leave to become Champions, here are the big highlights of what to watch for in November:

IVX #0 by Charles Soule and Kenneth Rocafort sets the stage for Inhumans vs. X-Men including “the seeds of the incredible plan that will unfold in IVX #1. Beast and Iso travel the world to learn a desperate truth, the X-Men assemble their ranks and the Inhumans prepare for the war to come. It all begins with one choice.”

Here come the number ones:

Avengers #1: Kang War One by Mark Waid and Mike Del Mundo. Captain America, Thor, Vision, Wasp, Spider-Man, Hercules stand against Kang and “not a one of these valiant heroes will make it to the final page alive!”

Avengers #1.1 by Mark Waid and Barry Kitson with a new story from Marvel’s past.. “For the first time ever, learn what really happened all those years ago when the founding Avengers turned their membership over to a new set of reruits. The recently thawd Captain America is joined by three reformed villains – Hawkeye, Quicksilver and Scarlet Witch “in a story that has direct ramifications for the Avengers of today”

Occupy Avengers #1 by David Walker and Carlos Pacheco stars Hawkeye leading non-super-powered heroes in what sure seems to be a resistance movement. Does this mean Captain Marvel and the pro-predictive justice forces win and Clint Barton leads what’s left of Tony Stark’s resistance?

Amazing Spider-Man: Renew Your Vows #1 by Gerry Conway and Ryan Stegman. Spinning out of Secret Wars, a married Peter and Mary Jane Parker and daughter Annie are the family that fights crime together (the whole family has Spider-Powers!)

Invincible Iron Man #1 by Brian Michael Bendis and Stefano Caselli starring Riri Williams as Ironheart. We still don’t know Stark’s fate but Williams will succeed him as the star of the Marvel Now flagship book.

Thanos #1 by Jeff Lemire and Mike Deodato with the Mad God of Titan out for vengeance and heading for a “reckoning with his family” but we’re still speculating about the Phoenix image in his eyes!

Black Panther: World of Wakanda #1 by Ta-Nehisi Coates, Roxane Gay, Yona Harvey, Alitha Martinez, Afua Richardson. Spinning out of the Black Panther solo series, the story behind the Midnight Angels – the two women leading the revolution in T’Challa homeland.

Venom #1 by Mike Costa and Gerardo Sandoval starring the symbiote back to his villainous roots in New York City.

Ghost Rider #1 by Felipe Smith, Danilo Beyruth and Tradd Moore. Robbie Reyes is back and Totally Awesome Hulk Amadeus Cho guest stars.

Foolkiller #1 by Max Bemis and Dalibor Talajic stars one of Deadpool’s Mercs for the Money.

The Unworthy Thor #1 of 5 by Jason Aaron and Olivier Coipel starring the Odinson who learns of another Mjolnir.

New arcs:

Captain America: Steve Rogers #7 Hail Hydra begins by Nick Spencer and Jesus Saiz with Red Skull on the march, SHIELD falling apart and Steve opens a door and “secrets behind it will shake the marvel Universe to its core…”

Power Man & Iron Fist #10 Harlem Burns begins as Luke and Danny fight to have Cage’s home from a crime turf war.

Spider-Woman #13 Scare Tactics begins as Jessica Drew faces the Hobgoblin.

The Punisher #7 Into the Wild starts as Frank Castle becomes the prey.

Moon Girl and Devil Dinosaur #13 The Smartest There Is begins. The teen Inhuman was recently named the smartest character in the Marvel Universe. Now here come the villains to test her.

Squadron Supreme #13 Namor Has Risen begins. The King of Atlantis was killed off in the first issue. Will splintered members of the alternate universe team resurrect him and why?

Old Man Logan #14 Monster War by Jeff Lemire and Filipe Andrade begins with Logan teaming up with the HOwling Commandos to find a missing Jubilee.

Civil War #8 The Final Vision, the recently eighth and final chapter of the showdown between Captain Marvel and Iron Man’s forces over Ulysses and his power of predictive justice.

Death of X #3 ,#4 What did Cyclops and Emma Frost do in the eight missing months after Secret Wars and see “the first true battle in the Inhumans/X-Men war. Cyclops isn’t the only one who doesn’t make it out alive….”

Does this mean Scott Summers and Emma Frost or other missing mutants are really dead just when the X-Men need them as war with the Inhumans breaks out?
