Anyway solicits for the X-books in August:
FEAR ITSELF: WOLVERINE #2 (of 3)
Written by SETH PECK
Penciled by ROLAND BOSCHI
Cover by JORGE MOLINA
FEAR ITSELF TIE-IN
What else is there to fear but FEAR ITSELF? A nuclear-bomb-equipped Hellicarrier stolen by a terrorist sleeper cell and docked over New York City is probably a good candidate. Wolverine and Melita race against the clock to shut down STRIKE before STRIKE takes out half of the city!

UNCANNY X-MEN #542
Written by KIERON GILLEN
Pencils & Cover by GREG LAND FEAR ITSELF TIE-IN
The situation is becoming increasingly clear: there is literally nothing which can avert Juggernaut is marching step by step towards Utopia. However, an offer by the Serpent's servant puts human and mutant at each others' throats. In the third part of the epic Fear Itself confrontation, the enemy within is as big a threat as the enemy without. The clock is ticking. And for one X-Man, it's already too late.

FEAR ITSELF: UNCANNY X-FORCE #2 (of 3)
Written by ROB WILLIAMS

FEAR ITSELF TIE-IN
With the events of FEAR ITSELF causing worldwide panic, Jonathan Standish and his cell of rogue Purifiers look to take their murderous mission to the next level. Believing superheroes have brought about the end of the world, just how many innocents can these Purifiers kill? How many 'souls' can they save from the devil? And where will they strike next? If ever there was a group worthy of X-Force's lethal talents, this is it. But is there a grain of truth hidden in Standish's askew thinking?
