In some ways, Legion feels like someone took the X-Men comics and blended them with the sensibilities of old episodes of The Prisoner. Dan Stevens as David Haller.Photo by Matthias Clamer/FX At times, Legion comes across as irreverent, and at others almost like a parody of itself Several times episodes have had the cast break out into[...]

However, before Jonathan Hickman relaunches the X-Men line in July, we've still got two issues left, including X-Force #9, in stores this Wednesday That means two issues to wrap everything up, including, presumably, the return of Rachel Grey. Rachel disappeared after Extermination, taken into custody of the Transian government after they captured Ahab and traded to[...]

But the 1990s X-Men: The Animated Series was one of the best, and certainly its adaptation of the Dark Phoenix Saga beats both of the times the X-Men movies tried to do it The series also played a big role in making new X-Men fans during the 1990s, and remains the formative X-Men experience for[...]

The Age of X-Man is falling apart, which is, of course, to be expected, since all of the minis are nearing their final issues. In this week's Apocalypse

We already know that Jonathan Hickman will be making some big changes to the X-Men with his upcoming line-wide relaunch kicking off in July with House of X and Powers of X, but nobody could have possibly considered those changes would be so X-Treme However, in a new teaser posted to Marvel's Twitter account, the[...]

Despite Hugh Jackman's retirement from playing Wovlerine for the Fox X-Men Cinematic Universe, Dark Phoenix director Simon Kinberg had his own reason not to include him in the film. Jackman played the role since 2000's X-Men, making eight more appearances until 2017's Logan, which only excludes the two Deadpool films Dark Phoenix will be the first[...]

Welcome to X-ual Healing, the column where we read every X-Men comic that came out last week and tell you what happened in them!

Power-mad Marvel X-Editor Jordan White returned from his two-week break to hold court at Adventures in Poor Taste for X-Men Monday today, and though AIPT's Chris Hassan was once again afraid to ask when Chris Claremont will be allowed to write an ongoing series, he did supply White with a question that allowed him to[...]

Yes, we know, we're bagging a lot on Dark Phoenix before even seeing it, and it's partially because we're not getting big giant parts of the celestial being's story.  Things like….Lilandra and the Shi'ar (although we may still be getting the Shi'ar?) and the other big one- The Hellfire Club. We were of course, semi-hoping that Jessica[...]

There isn't a gif accurate enough to fully express the deep sigh and headshake we had to do in seeing the newest bit of promotional material for Dark Phoenix, the last of the 20th Century Fox-made X-Men films. On the surface, it's fine, and it fits the theme of the previous films A year book video, featuring the[...]

I'd read reprints of stories in the Marvel UK editions, of course, usually black-and-white, often reprinting runs from the 60s, but I found X-Men #201 distributed on the UK newsstand in a newsagent in Pontefract, West Yorkshire opposite the bus station called The Kiosk I wonder… Bloody hell, it's still there. The smaller size, the colour, the[...]
