A second print of All New X-Men #16 labelled Chapter Six? Everyone knows it should have been Chapter Two… Mind you, this is a book about time travel Maybe it reads better this way. Having difficulty keeping your various crossover parts straight? Part one in one book, part two in another, a prelude from three months[...]

For some, it's been Marvel's tryout book, for others continuity implants, for yet more, the chance to tell a short sweet story in a world if six issue

This is for a comic already scheduled to have seven covers. They can only be ordered five covers at a time, the first five showing the X-Men reenacting Avengers covers, and the second five with Avengers reenacting X-Men covers. These are added to the Simone Bianchi variant (1:50) Simone Bianchi Sketch variant (1:100) and Alessio variant (1:75),[...]

Instead of having somebody else write and draw the epilogue each creative team responsible is dwriting their own epilogues.." Calling me a "rumormongering bullshit artist" though even a cursory reading of certain artists' Facebook posts backs the original story up, Kris Anka repeated Bendis' charge on tumblr, adding "(one of them is my ass, which is[...]

Steven Moffat even gave River Song the "Spoilers, sweetie!" line which became rather addictive. Battle Of The Atom has given us a child of Wolverine and Mystique, a big boy Shojo, warped and twisted Beast, a split Ice Man, a hardened Jubilee, all with a full long lived life reflected in their attitude and appearance. But in[...]

Hence its absence in January's solicitations, noted by Bleeding Cool. Its planned art team of Andres Guinaldo and Mark Irwin has been replaced with Derlis Santacruz and Wayne Faucher.

Not only is Wolverine in the blue and yellow, and missing his healing factor in the Wolverine Killable arc… But he's even having the same problems in the new X-Men issue of Battle Of The Atom Looks like this is actually going to be a thing now… Oh look, in Green Lantern Corps, John Stewart seems to[...]

Tomorrow's X-Men #6 chapter of Battle Of The Atom features the first appearance of this character, according to retailers who have contacted me really wanting you to know Some thought it may be Uncanny X-Men #13 that cover features him (right), but it's not, and X-Men #6 is out tomorrow. He's suspected of being the son[...]

They keep coming thick and fast! Corporate for a new #1 from Peter David and Carmine Di Gianomenico... could this be the new X-Factor? Who have, as the

Big spoilers for today's Wolverine & The X-Men by Jason Aaron, Guisseppe Camuncoli and Andrew Currie Just who are the new future X-Men we meet? Ice-Wizard … an older Ice Man clutching an ice staff… if so, who is Ice Hulk? Could that be the Ice Man who never went back in time, while this is[...]

WARNING: There are spoilers today's for X-Men: Battle Of The Atom and All New X-Men below Even a bit of Superior Spider-Man You may want to read the comics first, then pop back I would. Editor-In-Chief Mark Gruenwald established the rules first Whenever anyone in the Marvel Universe travels back in time, they get shunted into[...]

Here are a few creative changes to comic book already solicited… Rather than the full art for X-Men: Battle Of The Atom #1 being by Frank Cho as solicited, Stuart Immonen and Wade Von Grawbadger have drawn the final four pages This may be why. The artist credits have changed on Darkseid #1 from Paulo Siqueira just[...]

Around the time we opened up Wicked Comics together in 2011, Dave started dating Wendy and he immediately seemed happier than he had been in a long time. Flash forward a little over a year, Dave and Wendy were still together and to promote Astonishing X-Men #51, Marvel solicited a "create your own wedding" variant I[...]

Diana McCallum reports for Bleeding Cool from Toronto Fan Expo. Stan Lee started off the first day of Fan Expo in Toronto by letting all the fans at his panel know they're the reason he won't be doing one of his standard Marvel cameos in X-Men: Days of Future Past Stan explained to a packed hall[...]

In the new X-Men we get a major continuity reference to a comic book in 1989 Twenty-four years ago folks Twenty-four years… so I was sixteen, bunking off school on a Wednesday afternoon to go to Leeds and Odyssey Seven to buy… last week's comics I could only get there on a Wednesday and stores[...]

Fantastic Four, X-Men, and the most easily CG-able big bad in the Marvel Universe. It was the biggest single question surrounding Mark Millar's appointment as Fox's "Marvel Tsar", I suppose, and he's answered during a Q&A with SFX magazine and their readers. Most-Read Comic Stories Monday: Was That Darth Vader In Infinity #1? (UPDATE: Now With Added Luke) Have[...]

In November, as part of the 50th anniversary of the X-Men, Marvel are publishing X-Men Gold, with creators Stan Lee, Chris Claremont, Fabian Nicieza, Louise Simonson, Walter Simonson, Bob McLeod and more. Chris Claremont, it may surprise some to learn, is exclusive to Marvel Comics He's had a rolling contract with the publisher that pays him fairly[...]

Recently we saw the Britain's Better With Mutants campaign in X-Men Legacy, and how it contrasted with the mutant hate in the America-set mutant books from Marvel. Today's Uncanny X-Men puts that straight, with a cosplay pro-mutant march at the University of Michigan at Ann Arbor, with Frazer Irving giving us trees that look like mushroom[...]

Circuit Court of Appeal has just ruled Jack Kirby's heirs have no rights to his work for Marvel Comics and has upheld the ruling that the works are to be regarded as "works for hire" and owned by Marvel. Freelance creator, Jack Kirby fell out big time with Marvel comic and both he, his late wife[...]

From today's All New X-Men The Beast thinking careless thoughts in the presence of a new telepath… but what's this about not having the guts to grab her and kiss a certain Ms Grey? From X-Men #1 in 1963… Okay, I can see why someone might want to repress that And he wasn't alone in such[...]

We mentioned this earlier in a post about X-Men: Battle Of The Atom crossover scripts being late… and Frank Cho's sterling work trying to get the book back on time. He began with fifteen pages to draw in ten days, a schedule in which he would normally pencil and ink five or six pages at a[...]

Walking through the show, in the bars, at the parties, in the hotels and while mumbling into my breakfast. One thing a fair few people had heard us that the upcoming Battle Of The Atom crossover may be a little on the late side. Turns out this head-screwing time travel story with future, past and present X-Men[...]

Uber gets him in a rather entertaining fashion. X-Men, a comic that certainly has helped rebalance the superhero comics gender disparity, also does a mean line in men in suits standing with their hands in their pocket, pushing out their groin and making very masculine stance threats… Some long for a Lois Lane comic[...]

Lots of cool stuff happens in today's Uncanny X-Men by Brian Bendis and Chris Bachalo But something tells me this little line might be the one to get the message boards chit-chatting. Cyclops calling Dazzler the "Uncle Tom Of The Mutants". Combine that with the fuss over the M-Word in a previous issue of Uncanny Avengers… …and then[...]
