[rwp-review-recap id="0"] X-Men Gold and Blue spread cover by Arthur Adams and Peter Steigerwald Well, I wasn't a fan of X-Men: Blue #13, but I am a masochist and feel it is worth taking another look at the new push in the X-Men books Plus, fellow Bleeding Cool reviewer Joe Glass liked the story of this comic,[...]

We just got the trailer for X-Men: The New Mutants, but there are two other X-Men movies coming out in 2018 The last one, that is due out in November 2018, wrapped production today, according to director Simon Kinberg.

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] X-Men: Blue and X-Men Gold #13 conjoined covers by Arthur Adams and Peter Steigerwald We start off a new era of the X-Men with a crossover — because Marvel physically cannot control itself, I imagine. Mojo has hopped over to 616 (or whatever it's called now) and started a global gameshow, having the X-Men fight off[...]

Wolverine is on the search for her brother, Daken, after a cult called the Orphans of X has kidnapped him. With this new mystery, is the comic a good read?

#NewMutants pic.twitter.com/EXPmzRarr7 — 20th Century Fox (@20thcenturyfox) October 13, 2017 The X-Men New Mutants comic was first published in 1982 from authors Chris Claremont and Bill Sienkiewicz, as well as artist Bob McLeod. The X-Men universe has so many fascinating characters and stories which the films have barely tapped into. Hopefully New Mutants will be the launching point for some of those lesser known[...]

The popular Cajun X-men character who is has always played with the bad guy turned mostly good edge has long been a fan requested favorite to get a spotlight film The character had appeared previously in X-Men Origins: Wolverine, where had been portrayed by actor Taylor Kitsch, now it's Channing Tatum's turn, as the Magic Mike star[...]

Director Josh Boone announced this morning via his instagram that the first teaser trailer for "New Mutants" is getting released tonight!

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Astonishing X-Men #4 cover by Carlos Pacheco, Rafael Fonteriz, and Nolan Woodard Shadow King has taken over Logan and has unleashed him in the physical world Archangel, Bishop, and Psylocke attempt to hold the former Wolverine off On top of that, the Xavier from the Astral Plane has made contact with Psylocke and attempts to[...]

Rejoice, true believers! Marvel's 37th most popular mutant team is making a comeback in January as Excalibur returns for X-Men Gold Annual #1 Marvel announced the book, from writers Marc Guggenheim and Leah Williams and artist Alitha E Martinez, (a true fan who knows who Squirrel Girl is) at New York Comic Con Then they[...]

So how did the show come about? It was Hoffman who was the driving force in bringing the x-men universe to television First he went to Noah Hawley, and the result was Legion Matt Nix was next on Hoffman's list, and he had an idea to center a show in the x-men universe on family,[...]

One of the cool little booths I got to visit at New York Comic Con was manned by D3 Go! This company is working on a couple new app games for tablet, one for Magic: The Gathering and one with an X-Men battling theme. Both of them revolve around the puzzle completion type of combat where[...]

Percy Hynes White, who plays Andy Strucker on Fox's X-Men TV show The Gifted, celebrated his birthday today And if he thought he was going to attend Fox's The Gifted panel at New York Comic Con and not have the show's entire cast, and the entire crowd, sing 'Happy Birthday' to him, he was horribly[...]

Written by John Odum. Marvel Editor-in-Chief Axel Alonso emceed the panel that gave attendees a guided tour of the X-Men's Legacy re-orientation He was joined by several X-creators such as Ed Brisson (Cable, Old Man Logan), Matthew Rosenberg (Secret Warriors), and Charles Soule (Astonishing X-Men). The head-scratcher from the panel may be the "will they" or "won't[...]

Charles Soule, writer on the Astonishing X-Men maxi-series, has just told a room of retailers at New York Comic Con that the whole point of the book is to bring Charles Xavier back as a living character in the Marvel universe So that's what's happening. So don't expect him to just stay as an astral figure as[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] X-Men: Blue #12 cover by Arthur Adams and Peter Steigerwald Bloodstorm begins to have a change of heart as the Goblin Queen's plan comes near its completion She sees the suffering it will bring and the reluctance of Beast, and she may yet aid the side of the angels Will it be enough, though? Can[...]

However, once I got up to speed, I enjoyed the fun back and forth between the teen Jean lead star and her backup, the spirit of her adult self. The pair is inside the mind of Emma Frost, which entertainingly looks like the Grant Morrison era of X-Men The pair are on the hunt for something[...]

Since then, there have been plenty of X-Men stories which focused more on Jean Grey that didn't revolve around the fact that she is "destined" to be possessed by the Phoenix Now that we are seven issues in to Jean Grey and every issue has been, more or less, about her relationship with the Phoenix,[...]

I've been an X-Men fan my whole life and Jean is, in my mind, the true soul of the X-Men So we aren't taking this lightly We're going for that perfect balance of universe shaking epic and intimate personal drama that only the X-Men ever truly achieve This is all hands on deck for the[...]

Bleeding Cool was the first to break the news (hashtag #NYCC2017Speculation) that Matthew Rosenberg would be doing an X-book as part of Marvel Legacy.

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] X-Men Gold #13 from Marvel by Marc Guggenheim and Mike Mayhew is the first part of both the first crossover between X-Men Gold and X-Men Blue, Mojo Worldwide, and also of X-Men Gold's new story arc as part of Marvel Legacy. And like all classic X-Men stories, it starts with a softball game — which[...]

Boone and various cast members took to social media to celebrate the end of filming for the X-Men movie, due out in a mere seven months. New Mutants is promising to be a different type of X-Men movie Boone has called it a horror movie, and Fox could be heading a different direction with the X-Men[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] X-Men: Blue #11 The Goblin Queen and her Hex-Men are attacking the X-Men in their Madripoor mansion They've already caught Magneto, Polaris, and Iceman, and Beast is under the Goblin Queen's thrall. Jean Grey and Cyclops must survive long enough to find help to save their friends and allies. Meanwhile, Jimmy Hudson and Angel are half a[...]

The Guardians of the Galaxy bring a lot of entertainment with good one-liners coming from Star-Lord and Rocket Raccoon showing off his trademark sadism. The Brood are classic X-Men villains, and they lend themselves well to a Guardians story given their cosmic origins Tom Taylor brings these elements together in a well-executed finale. Laura pulls off some[...]

The Uncanny Avengers are under attack by Graviton! In one swoop, he destroyed Avengers Mansion and launched Scarlet Witch into the sky while her teammates

For X-Men Gold and X-Men Blue, this is going to be a double-down on the nostalgia stakes, after already bringing the classic feel with returning titles, or names harking back to classic formations, and returning to a focus on the kind of storytelling that had been missing from the X-titles for a while. Well, for Marvel[...]

We get a final meeting between the two Steve Rogers with Secret Empire: Omega #1. Does this provide the necessary closure? Don't bet on it.

Apple's announcement today of the mutant smart phone, iPhone X, has some interesting good points to consider for fans of digital comics.

Much has been made of his contribution to comics and the modern-day superhero form as the co-creator of Wolverine, Storm, Colossus, Nightcrawler and more for Marvel, as well as Swamp Thing for DC Comics and editor of Watchmen, as well as a life that began in the fanzine culture of the sixties and moved into[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] Astonishing X-Men #3 Logan is hot on the trail of the Shadow King, and he's resisting everything the psychic demon throws at him He's on his own, though, as the rest of his teammates are lost in the machinations of the Astral Plane What happens when Logan finds his old friend Charles Xavier first, if[...]

They're on the verge of a meltdown, and Bobby is trying not to do the same while explaining everything to them. Unfortunately, the Juggernaut is in town looking to settle a score with the young X-Men: Blue team (not realizing they now live in Madripoor). Can Iceman settle things with his parents, or will he be crushed[...]
