So What's Happening With Iceman In The X-Men Then? (Spoilers)

Iceman, Bobby Drake, was the only one of the original X-Men not seen in the From The Ashes relaunch... so where did he go?

Iceman, Bobby Drake, was the only one of the original X-Men not seen in the From The Ashes relaunch. At the end of Astonishing Iceman, he had been pulling himself together after a big explosion in Antarctica…

And then seen in X-Men Forever #3 having seemingly succeeded.

But for From The Ashes, Idie Okonkwo  – Temper – was taking his role with the ice bridge.

But Tom Brevoort said that in around December, we'd be talking about Iceman. As well as Inmate X, Thunderbird and Vanisher. But maybe we will get in early? As Exceptional X-Men #1 launched today. And while Iceman isn't in the comic book per se…

…the QR Code at the back (yes, that's still a thing) reveals that he is on his way to Chicago to join the Exceptional X-Men and on the look for… someone. Kitty Pryde? Emma Frost? Someone else? Oh yes, and Verate, an app that uses the user's DNA to provide lifestyle solutions. Just not in North Dakota. Any chance they will be up to no good, harvesting DNA or the like? Surely not, Verate is from the Latin for true. So there shouldn't be no problem there, right?

EXCEPTIONAL X-MEN #1
MARVEL COMICS
JUN240948
(W) Eve L. Ewing (A/CA) Carmen Carnero
KATE PRYDE LEADS A TEAM OF ALL-NEW X-MEN! After the fall of Krakoa, Kate Pryde is trying to get as far away from all things X as she possibly can. She's just a regular-degular bartender now. Definitely NOT getting ready to head up an ALL-NEW TEAM of wayward young mutants while avoiding the watchful gaze of Emma Frost. Nothing in this title but work, dating and staving off depression. That's it. No never-before-seen EXCEPTIONAL X-MEN to see here! Rated T+ In Shops: Sep 04, 2024 SRP: $4.99

EXCEPTIONAL X-MEN #2
MARVEL COMICS
AUG240702
(W) Eve L. Ewing (A/CA) Carmen Carnero
Kate Pryde's continued attempts at living a normal, non-mutant life go laughably wrong as she finds herself in the middle of a brawl started by a couple of headstrong teens with remarkable abilities – which, of course, they're terrible at controlling. She's sworn off being anybody's teacher, mentor, professor, sensei or anything that reminds her of her old life. But will the White Queen force her hand? Rated T+In Shops: Oct 09, 2024 SRP: $3.99

EXCEPTIONAL X-MEN #3

(W) Eve Ewing (A/CA) Carmen Carnero
EMMA FROST VS KITTY PRYDE! Kitty Pryde's determination to stay doggedly away from all things X-Men related becomes more strained by the day as EMMA FROST once again sticks her nose into things. Meanwhile, our new team is finding their rhythm. AXO, MELEE and BRONZE have officially entered the fray! Rated T+In Shops: Nov 20, 2024 SRP: $3.99
