A New Chris Claremont X-Men Comic For November 2022?

Published Fri, 15 Jul 2022 08:57:11 -0500

Talking at the end of a two-hour interview between our good friend Omar at Near Mint Comics, Chris Claremont dropped some upcoming plans, to follow his delayed Gambit series with Sid Kotian that will be launching at the end of the month.

"Gambit will launch in two weeks and somewhere at the end of the month, beginning of next month, keep your eyes peeled, there should be a new announcement for my next series, of which i can say absolutely nothing but I think it will make people happy".

That would align with November 2022 rather than October solicitations. Could it finally be a Krakoan X-Men book that has been teased? Something with Kitty Pryde? A Brian Braddock book? Look to the skies…
