“THE APOCALYPSE”

Apocalypse (meaning "revelation" in ancient Greek) is the last book of the New Testament written in the second half of the Christian era. According to the tradition of the church, the author was St. John expelled to Patmos in the Aegean Sea, and received a vision (revelation) about the end of the world and the destiny of mankind. The Apocalypse tells us the second coming of Christ and tells us when the ultimate judgment will judge each person according to their behavior. The prophecy of the Apocalypse seems to be particularly hot during war, epidemics, and bad harvest. Dürer's woodcut printing cycle was born in Germany in the late 15th century by farmer movement, religious fighting, plague.

The cycle that took place from 1496 to 1498 includes 15 woodcut prints and covers. There is a monogram of Dürer on one sheet of paper. This cycle was announced several times in his life. The first two versions of German and Latin were published in 1498. The cover page originally originated from text, there was no image. All impressions of the first edition are high quality. In 1511, the artist newly produced the Latin version, printed woodcut prints on the cover, and strictly prohibited copying the series. The impression of this version is a heterogeneous brown tone, the Latin text is different from the 1498 version. The series is made of blocks of big trees; the text is on the other side of the print, not necessarily corresponding to the image

This cycle is directed at society of all levels, from knowledgeable humanists to simple urban residents. This is why art languages ​​are easy to understand and images are close to life. There are many obscure hints in the apocalypse at the end of the world, but in Dürer's explanation it all seems obviously hot. Almost all cycles of woodcut prints have an idea of ​​struggle and confrontation between light and darkness between good and evil.

Most sheets kept at the Pushkin Museum are from the 1511 edition and there are Latin letters on the other side.

It is said that a diary that lost the fate of a mutated prophet came up and told the twelve sentient beings who could break apocalyptic books even once. Various mutants listed in the prophecy were kidnapped by apocalyptic cavalry, including the Skrulls faction. The legend of 12 is actually a carefully planned trick by Apocalypse: When 12 gather, the Apocalypse will use them to turn themselves into the transcendent God's entity. At the end of the story the physical form of the Apocalypse burnt down by the enormous amount of energy he controlled and forced him to wear a bio armor (like his future opponent). Energy and consciousness enter. As he is about to merge with Nate, X - Men will face apocalypse, but he can not stop him. Cyclops push past Nate Gray and blend into the apocalypse

I already know that the 2016 X - Men sequel is called X - Men: Revelation. In a cartoon book, the Revelation of John is a super game that can afflict one of the most powerful and horrible villains, mutants. Apocalypse is actually the world's oldest mutant, even if he is a bit like a robot fight. I would like to say, in the mid-1990s, the story of the origin "rising apocalypse", he was born in ancient Egypt more than 5000 years ago. The baby's apocalypse was abandoned by his family due to his gray skin and a strange blue line on his face - but a group of nomads found him and raised him. Recognizing his great fate, they named him "En Sabah Nur". This means "first" in ancient manga book language. The power of Savanur's rise worthy barbarian Conan, he becomes a conqueror and king
