[youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f7u-P8lSmsg[/youtube] Well, X-Men: Days Of Future Past is on the way And the outside-the-show promotional activities at San Diego Comic Con are up and running So thanks to a couple of sign holders for having their own fun with the official PR. It's almost as if they were paid… And the Christian evangelism has some interesting competition… [youtube]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6b_LyYtfO3s[/youtube] [...]

I've seen so many people in X-Men cosplay in San Diego this year – something like one for every fifteen Tardis ladies, and that's thousands, probably – that the following probably counts as a huge and worthwhile public service announcement. So, from Bryan Singer's Twitter feed: X-MEN EAT FREE! Tomorrow, head to Carls Jr Star diner @ComicCon[...]

Comic Con Thursday was a big day for X-Men: Days of Future Past  First there's that rather cool Sentinel head (and accompanying promo posters) at the Trask Industries display that Brendon got pictures of, and then there was the long-awaited reveal of Bishop in costume.

Now we've all been spoiled by Joss Whedon's triumphant take on The Avengers, seeing just one guy reluctantly pull on his super-suit to dispense summary justice to yet another identikit CGI hulk'o'lizard or giant robot seems, well, a bit …meh. It looks as if the same thought has occurred to Lauren Shuler Donner, the production brains[...]

Issue 8 of X-Men came along and with it the Brotherhood of Evil Mutants Not every Mutant is going to get the awesome power of flight, magnetism, telepathy or shooting lasers out of your eyes But Stan and Jack came up with a good one when the dreamt up a mutant with a personal force[...]

Marvel has told Newsarama that they are relaunching the Marvel Knights imprint, for new mini-series Spider-Man by Matt Kindt and Marco Rudy in October, X-Men by Brahm Revel in November, and Hulk by Joe Keatinge and Piotr Kowalski in December. Originally the Marvel Knights imprint was intended to revive comic book franchises at Marvel it was[...]

Shogo may surprise you. There's one hooded character in the Battle Of The Atom promo images, showing the X-Men of the future, who has yet to be identified Could it be? Little baby Shogo all grown up? Wood also seems to talk about leaving Ultimate X-Men; I don't doubt that a future writer will take things in a[...]

From design… … to cover, courtesy of CBR. And remember those rumours we had that Wolverine would snuff it, as a result of losing his healing factor?

I'm sure there are plenty of people who will make jokes about future anatomy looking no more ridiculous, but rather, enjoy its subtlety… I always suspected teachers meetings went something like this, from today's Wolverine And The X-Men The rule continues, this comic remains great as long as the action takes place either in the[...]

Marvel Comics has a sliding timescale of continuity. It means that when you read your comics twenty years ago or now, some things stay the same and some

We mentioned yesterday that the ending of this issue would give X-Men readers of a certain age the warm and fuzzies And dammit if we weren't right. But it's not just the ending The issue, set at the Hellfire Academy and is hilarious This book really sparks when it's set in a place of learning (and[...]

And that X-Factor is no more. I'm told there are two new X-books on the table for Marvel for Marvel NOW TWO, one with a November release date and other early 2014. One should be a hybrid New X-Men/New Mutants/Hellfire Academy/Generation X type of comic – though sadly nothing to do with that Clay Mann image above[...]

When the new X-Men #1 was announced, one of the aspects that people noted was that, just like Uncanny X-Force and Fearless Defenders, it was another Marvel team book that featured just women in the lead roles. The actual issue takes that and runs with it Because not only do we have all female good guys,[...]

In today's Ultimate Spider-Man, we flip forward a year in the life of Miles Morales. If a year is a long time, how about twenty-five years? In today's Wolverine And The X-Men, we flip forward that length in the life of Logan A few spoilers… but these seem to be intentional ones. He still seems to be[...]

The Avengers Vs X-Men Companion is a big fat 1112 hardcover that came out this week in comic stores But the interesting thing is it came in this kind of weird custom cardboard AvX box and says "Limited Edition Print + Digital Combo" on the top. This isn't like an Absolute slipcase… it's just a really, really[...]

As well as hanging about for signings, they're going to throw panels too, and offer advice and writing tips, as well as take questions, share anecdotes, demonstrate the wit that makes them kings and queens of the writers room. There's Jane Espenson (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Battlestar Galactica), Ashley Miller (Thor, X-Men: First Class), Christian Taylor (Six[...]

This is where supply and demand and most accurately reflected, where you can see which books are hot, where new orders are coming in and where retailers are reacting to new, unanticipated desire! The new X-Men book by Brian Wood (Skottie Young cover above) takes the top spot, followed by East Of West #3, as the[...]

But because this is Marvel Time, thirty years since that 1983 story have not actually passed in the lives of the X-Men. But who do we have coming from the future? Well there are some clues, some easy, some less so. Take Xorn or Xorna… a female Xorn? Or could she be a form taken by original-Xorn[...]

Joe Kelly, in 1999 about his decision to walk off the X-Men titles: "We'd write a story, work really hard on it, hand it in and it would get approved Then we'd get a call from the X-office saying, 'We're not doing that story any more' We'd already put three months of work into it, but[...]

The 'M' Word represents everything I hate." The X-Men comics have often used allegory to address such prejudice, with "mutie" being the original epithet, with Kitty Pryde once comparing it on panel to the N-word, recently succeeded by "genefreak" But "mutant" has generally remained descriptive in the comics Uncanny Avengers #5 seeks to change that… Most-Read Comic[...]

Not a reference to an Italian translation of Wolverine And The X-Men, but instead the repeated use of rather entertaining English words in today's X-Men comics. I'm not sure which future these robots come from Dicks Of Future Past? And anyway this is where Wolverine's Long Lost Brother comes in. This is a standard Marvel superhero comic[...]
