Tomorrow's X-Factor lays out the different mutant philosophies in the wake of X-Men's fall of Krakoa, divided between Magneto and Charles Xavier, even now that we both know they were secretly plotting together for the establishment of Krakoa Look, it makes sense if you squint, okay? To be fair, Magneto would have been quite happy ruling[...]

Prodigy was an X-Men for about five minutes until he was killed on the island of Krakoa at the third Hellfire Gala by attacking Stark Sentinels from Orchis Well, he made his way back, resurrected before the mutants of Krakoa left for Valinor Sorry, those were the Elves, I meant the White Hot Room Now[...]

On the cover of this month's Previews is another one of the Disney/Marvel homage covers that confuses people when they are picking up the new Amazing Spider-Man… Mickey Mouse and Friends reprising the X-Men Krakoan Era And asking questions that Disney never wanted to be asked Such as, based on this, are Minnie Mouse, Pluto[...]

I may need to stare at that Garth Marenghi gif again. And Jonathan Hickman briefly returns to Krakoa… and a Krakoa that never left for the White Hot Room Is this a remaining Krakoa forty years hence if he had never left the Xbooks when he did? The Krakoa that plenty of X-Men readers still yearn[...]

In X-Factor #1, the Marvel Comics version of Maxwell Lord, Rodger Broderick, talked about the legacy of Krakoa Almost in a way that might have been satirising some of the Krakoan fans who won't let go And, yeah, I admit I am probably one of those Still enjoy the meta-commentary though. In tomorrow's X-Men #3 by Jed MacKay and Ryan[...]

A collection of disparate characters thrown together and, well… talking about it. Looking at the post Krakoan mutant world, and how there are bad people on both sides. Something for everyone on the internet to get mad about. So while today's X-Men #2 has the team trying to prove themselves by saving people… …and revealing that Cyclops may possibly[...]

Such as one from reader Levi, on whether or not the X-Men will kill now. "Between your philosophy on X-Force no longer being allowed to be a kill squad and the fact that you immediately retconned Xavier's murders at the end of Krakoa, a pattern is starting to emerge Do you intend to make your tenure[...]

The new X-Force #1 launching today by Geoffrey Thorne and Marcus To as part of the X-Men: From The Ashes, relaunch gives us a better sense of the post-Krakoa world of the mutants And the way the nations have reacted to the fall of Krakoa and the immigrant spread of the remaining mutants…. … half the[...]

We have (clues in the name) NYX with Ms Marvel, telling Bruno about one way that mutantist studies have been integrated into human society after the fall of Krakoa… a college course full of introspection, analysis and navel-gazing. Okay, she doesn't put it like that But Prodigy kinda does And he's the professor. You can feel the Fox[...]

In a promo for their X-Men launch book NYX #1 by Collin Kelly, Jackson Lanzing, and Francesco Mortarino, Marvel Comics states, "As mutantkind returns to New York City, one former X-Man twists the dream of Krakoa to rule the masses! WHO IS THE KRAKOAN?" Looks like you can take the mutants out of Krakoa, but[...]

This week sees the publication of X-Men #1 by Jed MacKay and Ryan Stegman, launching the From The Ashes era of X-Men, following the Krakoan Age And, it seems, some time has passed and things have happened in the interim." X months later" as they say And we are going to get a bit of[...]

But with the end of the Krakoan Age, fellow Marvel writer Chip Zdarsky and X-Men lead writer Gerry Duggan took to Cameo to pay Rob Liefeld to extend congratulations to this "Jonathan" for leaving his day job to create comics… "Our top salesperson is leaving his job to pursue his dream of writing and drawing his[...]

In a promo for their upcoming X-Men launch book for From The Ashes, NYX #1 by Collin Kelly, Jackson Lanzing, and Francesco Mortarino for the 24th of July, Marvel Comics states, "As mutantkind returns to New York City, one former X-Man twists the dream of Krakoa to rule the masses! WHO IS THE KRAKOAN?" Loks[...]

And it seems that the comic books are either looking in the back mirror of offering sops to the Krakoan kids Sop Scarlet Witch #1 starts off with Mysterium… …as well as mentioning what rotters those Orchis folk were. X-Men: Blood Hunt: Jubilee #1 does less, though does recall her time hanging out with vampires[...]

We previously looked at newsletters from Gerry Duggan, Kieron Gillen and Al Ewing about saying goodbye to the X-Men and the Krakoan Age All three co-wrote the final issue of X-Men #35, but there are a few others with some poignant moments to share. Si Spurrier, who wrote the Nightcrawler-related Krakoan books Legion Of X, Way[...]

Writing in his Ghost newsletter at the end of the Krakoan Age with X-Men #35, and the beginning of Venom War, both with the same editor Jordan D White, Al Ewing also teased something else he is up to. "I was about to say that Jonathan Hickman's original vision in building that writer's room, and giving[...]

With X-Men #35/Uncanny X-Men #700 dropping yesterday, ending the Krakoan Age and kicking off the From The Ashes run, Marvel has decided to digitally rush the remaining issues on Marvel Unlimited and get them out of the door as the X-Men line relaunches With accelerated digital streaming dates for X-Men (2021), Fall Of The House[...]

And while her reanimated dead body is fine with both sets of abilities working together, the normal Ms Marvel looks like she'll have to settle for her embiggening Inhuman abilities… for now. So while she may be fully an Inhuman now… It looks like she's inherited all the bad feeling about being a mutant. There's a lot of[...]

As a philosophical debate over the future of mutants and Krakoa turned to a physical one rather quickly, the situation must be shut down Quickly. Nightcrawler, often portrayed as man of peace, has also been seen as someone who can use their powers most viciously Fighting Nimrod by teleporting away a part of his body[...]

But now it's gone, with the rest of Krakoa Storm says so, to Apocalypse. Although while the age of resurrection has gone… … the age of healing factors is still with us, which is handy for Wolverine and Deadpool… … and before the age of resurrection passed into the White Hot Room with the Krakoan mutants, they did[...]

But the Krakoan Age is coming to an end, and with the time jump, Marvel Comics has placed it in a sealed coffin There is no going back But Marvel Comics knows how hard older fans hold on to a previous state of storytelling when the comic book moves on Amazing Spider-Man fans still hold[...]

Okay, so you know how I said that Marvel Comics had locked away Krakoa, courtesy of a fifteen-year time jump, so that the X-Men books couldn't be pressured to just go back to Krakoa every time they wanted? As well as moving on the many million mutant population, bringing the X-Men back closer to the[...]

It is usually focused around the belief that integration is not possible and isolation, even dominance of mutants over humans, is the only way forward, and in opposition to the Charles Xavier dream, as it was portrayed at least. The Krakoan Age basically tested that theory Xavier working with Magneto to create an isolationist nation state,[...]

The end of the Krakoan Age and the beginning of From The Ashes It is a change that some are going to find hard to take and will be wanting to equivocate a way back But Marvel Comics has chosen to make it impossible to do so without betraying the characters Especially this one. Kafka first[...]
