Ahead of Comic-Con, Marvel TV and Fox have unleashed a batch of viral websites and teasers for the upcoming new X-Men TV series, The Gifted.
The viral sites for The Gifted includes Sentinel Services and Are You Gifted (which presently redirects to the official Facebook page).
Sentinel Services offers that “it is not a crime to be a mutant. But it is a responsibility.” The site offers information on the mutant gene, how to protect your family and why to get tested.
“Sentinel Services is an agency within the U.S. Department of Defense responsible for protecting the nation against mutant threats,” the site’s About Us section states. “Our mission is to leverage our leadership position in genetic research to keep all Americans safe.”
Clicking on links at the site reveals that is has been hacked by mutants who warn you about the service, including Polaris, Blink and Eclipse.
Here are some teasers:
