Marvel History Rewritten So Kamala Khan Ms Marvel Catches Dark Phoenix

Marvel history rewritten in Giant-Size X-Men so that Kamala Khan, Ms Marvel, can catch Dark Phoenix when she falls

The new Giant-Size X-Men series for 2025, as first revealed on Bleeding Cool, is sending Kamala Khan, Ms Marvel, tumbling back in time and placing her within previous X-Men stories to bulk up her status as a mutant rather than an Inhuman. The first issue promises us "Now, pulled into the distant past by an unhinged villain with deep ties to mutant history, Ms. Marvel will witness the iconic birth of the Uncanny X-Men and their first encounter with Krakoa from an all-new, all-different perspective" Well, this preview from this Wednesdays' Marvel Previews magazine for Giant-Size Dark Phoenix Saga #1 out in June, looks to reveal that it is Legion, son of Charles Xavier and Gabrielle Haller, doing the time pulling. And getting involved with the narrative, and Ms Marvel is brought along for the ride, as teased in Timeslide and Second Genesis.

Good catch Kamala!

Previously, Jackson Lanzing said, "Starting in May on Free Comic Book Day and then pushing forward bringing Kamala Khan on into her own journey of mutantdom and mutant acceptance in Giant Size X-Men. Now this series is going to run us through the entirety of X-Men history, from the All New All Different era to Dark Phoenix, to Age Of Apocalypse to House Of M and finally back to the present. Each has different artists on these oversized one-shots. It's really just an incredible canvas and an incredible opportunity to take Kamala on a journey she really deserves to go on, understanding the full extent of her mutant identity and the full extent of her ability to be an X-Man. Now it may look like we're running roughshod over X-history, but I love these books I love these stories, let me tell you we are not here to break our continuity apart. What we are really looking to do is to take this character we all love and show her what it means to be a mutant in the most spectacular and breathtaking way with some of the best artists in comics. Adam Kubert is leaving it all on the field here guys, I can't wait for you to see what he's doing. So to everybody who stuck with us on NYX. thank you so much. For anybody who never picked up NYX, I hope you'll join us on Giant Size X-Men. We're making it fully accessible to new readers, but I do think it's going to make you want to come back and reread where this all started."
