Giant-Size X-Men #1 has two X-Men that never were... published at the end of next month, and set up by Free Comic Book Day



Article Summary

  • Giant-Size X-Men #1 introduces two X-Men that never were, featuring new characters from Al Ewing and Sara Pichelli.
  • The issue marks the 50th Anniversary of Giant-Size X-Men, launching with a Revelations story and new mutant insights.
  • Discover Ms. Marvel's unique role in the X-Men history as she is drawn into a past-altering adventure.

Marvel Comics solicited next month's Giant Size X-Men #1 saying that it included "A REVELATIONS STORY INTRODUCING THE X-MAN THAT NEVER WAS BY AL EWING AND SARA PICHELLI!" In all capital letters, just like that. Now they have added more details. Although, by more, they really mean, not much more. But they do include a new "spoiler variant" cover. So, as with All-New Venom, expect that to be posted on eBay the week before… here's how it looks now. With the mutant who turned down Charles Xavier when putting together his second team back in the mid-seventies… before either Al Ewing or Sara Pichelli were born…
