"The Fall of the Mutants" was a comic book crossover event by Marvel Comics spanning January to March 1988. It spanned three issues each of The Uncanny X-Men (issues #225–227), X-Factor (issues #24–26), and The New Mutants (issues #59–61); unlike most crossovers however, the various titles' storylines did not intertwine, but were instead linked thematically as each team underwent major ordeals and drastic changes in their status quo.

The 1990 computer game X-Men II: The Fall of the Mutants was based on this storyline.

Famous quotes containing the words fall of and/or fall:

    “Reprehension is a kind of middle thing betwixt admonition and correction: it is sharpe admonition, but a milde correction. It is rather to be used because it may be a meanes to prevent strokes and blowes, especially in ingenuous and good natured children. [Blows are] the last remedy which a parent can use: a remedy which may doe good when nothing else can.”
    —William Gouge, Puritan writer. As quoted in The Rise and Fall of Childhood by C. John Sommerville, ch. 11 (rev. 1990)

    “I know thee not, old man. Fall to thy prayers.
    How ill white hairs becomes a fool and jester!”
    —William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
