Seems like yesterday when the Krakoan Age of the X-Men comics launched. But all issues should come to an finish. Fans have been questioning concerning the new route for the X-Men comics for a lengthy whereas now. We already knew editor Tom Brevoort could be making the bounce to the X line after over 20 years on the Avengers, in addition to Gail Simone could be concerned. Earlier at the moment at ‘Future of Marvel Comics’ X-Men and Digital Comics’ panel at South by Southwest (SXSW), Editor-in-Chief C.B. Cebulski and VP, Executive Editor Tom Brevoort have been joined by Simone in addition to author Jed MacKay to announce what’s coming subsequent for Marvel’s line of X-Men comics.
This new period of the X-Men comics line can be centered round three flagship titles.
First up is adjectiveless X-Men by author Jed MacKay and artist Ryan Stegman arriving July tenth.
From their new base in Alaska, the X-Men increase a flag of defiance! Join CYCLOPS, BEAST, MAGNETO, PSYLOCKE, KID OMEGA, TEMPER (previously OYA), MAGIK and JUGGERNAUT as they assemble towards new forces, battling for the future and philosophy of the mutant species. Mutant enterprise is their enterprise.
“It’s not just those three titles in this relaunch, there’s a lot!” MacKay shared on the panel. “[My X-Men title] is where we’ll see the first inklings of what the X-Men will look like in 2024. I’m very excited for you guys to see it when it comes out. If you look at that line-up, they’re a group of people who are not well suited to integrating into the world. And in these books, we’ll see what that means and what it looks like going forward.”
The following up can be Uncanny X-Men written by Gail Simone Simone with artist David Marquez arriving on August seventh.
Making themselves at residence in the Big Easy, the X-Men shield a world that hates and fears them! Join ROGUE, GAMBIT, NIGHTCRAWLER, JUBILEE and WOLVERINE on explosive tremendous hero adventures. Uncanny as ever, the X-Men are again to saving the day mutant-style!
“I think X-Fans are special in that we identify with having something different about us…and you’re going to feel that in this book, and what it means to have that thing about you that’s different, or exceptional. We go deep into the emotional part of that,” Simone instructed the gang.
“David Marquez is the perfect artist for this book,” she continued. “He does amazing action, amazing character work, and he’s really excited about getting into the characters appearing in this book. I knew from the very first panel that this book was going to be super exciting and gorgeous. He just knows how to knock it out of the park!”
Finally anticipate Exceptional X-Men from author Eve L. Ewing and artist Carmen Carnero on September 4th.
MUTANTKIND’S TWO GREATEST TEACHERS MOLD THE NEXT GENERATION OF X-MEN!
KATE PRYDE has returned residence to Chicago following the warfare with ORCHIS. Having stepped away from the world of mutantdom, she is however known as again into motion as she crosses paths with a trio of new younger mutants, BRONZE, AXO and MELEE, who clearly want coaching and steering. Unfortunately for Kate, EMMA FROST thinks in order properly!
“Long-time fans of Kitty Pryde can count on the kinds of adventures you expect from her as a classic favorite, while I hope new and old readers alike will get to love this all-new team of young mutants,” Ewing shared. “Kitty, the one-time kid sister figure of the X-Men, has to reckon with her own memories—good and bad—of being a child of Xavier as she navigates a role as leader and mentor for a new generation of mutants who are trying to make their way in a time of crisis. I always try to strike a chord between appealing to veteran comics fans and new readers, but since so many people fell in love with the X-Men as teens and this book is about a team of young folks, that feels especially important to me here. I hope that for some 13- or 14-year-old readers, this might be the first comic book they pick up. Working on this series has been a ton of fun already, as Carmen Carnero’s art is bringing so much dynamism to these pages and the entire X-team of writers is in a flurry sharing scripts and feedback and ideas.”
Marvel Comics VP Executive Editor Tom Brevoort defined the new method and what followers can anticipate:
“The X-Men are fractured in the aftermath of the end of Krakoa, scattered across the globe without a central base of operation. What that means in practice is that all three titles carrying the name X-MEN are core X-MEN series—they all center around one of the major aspects of what the team has been about at different points. This is very much by design. We want to field a wide assortment of X-titles with different styles and tones and approaches, an X-MEN book for virtually any taste.”
In addition, Marvel launched trailer that includes never-before-seen art work that teases new villains and the thriller of Inmate X.
Besides the X-MEN: FROM THE ASHES promotional picture by Ryan Stegman and Marte Gracia on the high of the article, Marvel additionally teased titles to come back. It gained’t come as a shock that a Wolverine or X-Force title can be introduced. But I’m certain followers can be most excited to see a few of the different upcoming books teased together with X-Factor, Storm, Phoenix, and the return of NYX.
And don’t overlook to take your first steps into the new period on May 4 with a particular prelude story by Gail Simone in FREE COMIC BOOK DAY 2024: BLOOD HUNT/X-MEN #1 AND in June’s X-MEN #35, the 700th situation of Uncanny X-Men, which is able to function tales by each Simone and MacKay.
Between this and the X-Men ’97 cartoon, there’s by no means been a higher time to be an X-Men fan!
