Marvel Comics has previewed the upcoming team-up between the X-Men and the Future Foundation.

Next month heralds the release of a brand-new story arc in X-Men, which will see the Future Foundation arrive on Utopia with some shocking news.

The arc will feature the return of '80s supporting character Lee Forrester - a past love interest of both Cyclops and Magneto.

The preview also suggests a potential conflict between the two teams due to the presence of notorious supervillains Magneto and Dr. Doom.

Previously known as the Fantastic Four, the FF rebranded themselves as the Future Foundation and gained new members in the form of Spider-Man and Dr. Doom.

X-Men was launched last year as more of an ancillary series focusing on the mutant team's interactions with the greater Marvel Universe.

X-Men #16 is due out on August 31.
