There's a traitor in the X-Men's midst… for the billionth time… in April While most of the X-Men are off in the Age of X-Man event, enjoying utopia, Cyclops and Wolverine are left behind to rebuild the X-Men and tie up loose ends in the mutant world One of those loose ends appears to be[...]

The only relevant band for Bleeding Cool readers is End Of A Year, whose vocalist, Patrick Kindlon, later joined forces with Rosenberg to become a writing duo (End Of A Year changed their name to Self Defense Family). So, when Matt Rosenberg titled his Astonishing X-Men mini Until Our Hearts Stop, he's referring to Until Your[...]

Ten weeks after the return of Uncanny X-Men, the first big storyline, X-Men Disassembled, concluded in this week's Uncanny X-Men #10 We saw the ending of all of the X-books from the ResurrXion era, as well as newer titles like X-Men Red, canceled to make way for this Was it worth it? Are you happier[...]

It's the moment you've all been waiting for, X-fans! After years of abuse by Marvel, painting him as a villain and killing him off as part of an ill-advised attempt to make The Inhumans happen, Cyclops is finally returning in next week's Uncanny X-Men Annual #1 So how does cyclops come back? Well, we saw[...]

Last September, superstar artist Rob Liefeld claimed to be working on a "huge  X-Men crossover" for 2019, an event made possible due to Marvel increasing X-Men budgets now that their movie rights are set to return to Marvel through parent company Disney's acquisition of Fox. Here's the deal Since the X-Men movies came out and Disney[...]

Written by Matthew Rosenberg with art by Pere Perez, War of the Realms: Uncanny X-Men will be a 3-issue miniseries tying into what Marvel is promising will be its biggest super-mega-crossover event of all time, and with all of the tie-ins and spinoffs they've been announcing, it's well on its way to being just that. Of[...]

We've been doing a lot of talking about the possible implications if/when the Disney purchase of FOX goes through, primarily about the fate of the Fox-owned Marvel X-Men franchise. There was a story earlier this week, a rumor, that Dark Phoenix and New Mutants (if it ever sees the light of day) will be the last two Marvel property[...]

If/when the Disney acquisition of FOX goes through, it'll mean some pretty big Marvel implications and additions to the already well-established Marvel Cinematic Universe. Perhaps one of the biggest would be the folding in of the X-Men property, which FOX has held onto for 20 years. James McAvoy, who has played X-Men founder/team leader Professor Charles Xaiver[...]

It's only X-Editor Jordan White's second week since his big fancy promotion, and he's already feeling the pressure! So we appreciate that, despite being busy, he still found time to post some quick previews for that most important of comic book holidays, X-Men Monday. But we're not very happy to see Cyclops being mistreated so soon! Guys,[...]

Two ancillary X-Men series come to an end this week, as we've seen so many do in the past few years As we move into the next era of X-Men, will Marvel figure out a strategy to make a non-core title last more than 12 issues? We'll talk about it as we recap this week's[...]

Dark Phoenix could, potentially, be the very last Fox-owned X-Men film we get With the looming possibility of what the Disney/Fox merger could mean for the Marvel properties Fox holds, this is something many fans of the franchise have in the back of their minds This will also probably be the last time we see the[...]

The wait is nearly over, as the conclusion to the ten-part story X-Men Disassembled concludes in next week's issue of Uncanny X-Men A preview of that issue shows that X-Man is finally going to give the X-Men exactly what they asked for: a double page splash page featuring lots of characters in battle. At some point[...]

Last issue, Wolverine was tricked into taking on the X-Men, and this issue it looks like he succeeded in driving them off from Soteira's private island…without realizing that he's the one doing Soteira's dirty work, not them. Wolverine is not going to be happy when he finds out he's being manipulated And when he gets mad,[...]

In which the Marvellous X-Men, including Bishop, Colossus, Storm, Nate Grey, Jean Grey, Magneto, Nightcrawler, X-23, and Nature Girl spend their time tackling issues caused by new mutants coming into their own. Because everyone is a mutant. On the first day of the Age Of X-Man (known as The Resolution), everyone became a mutant, leading to massive "natural" disasters worldwide,[...]

Two new Marvel Legends vehicles are now up for preorder for shipping in the spring- Professor X in his hoverchair and Deadpool and a moped!

White (@cracksh0t) January 7, 2019 Several of the previews seem to be from Uncanny X-Men or the upcoming Age of X-Manevent… but that one in the top left of the second tweet looks like it may be from Rob Liefeld's teased huge X-Men crossover (or, we suppose, from Deadpool Badder Blood) In any case, it also[...]

The world rejoiced in 2018 when Marvel, in the wake of a deal for parent company Disney to purchase Fox, finally stopped purposely downplaying the importance of the X-Men and allowed the Fantastic Four to have a series again But what about some of the other victims of Marvel's feud with Fox over movie rights?[...]

As we head into a new year of X-Men comics at Marvel, it's time to compile a list of ten likely predictions for Marvel X-plans in 2019 Of course, thanks to solicitations and accelerated shipping schedules, we already know what's happening in the next 50 or so issues of various X-Men comics, so these predictions[...]

Losing her powers, gaining a mohawk, beating Cyclops in a duel for leadership of the X-Men, regaining her powers, losing a mohawk, married to Black Panther, dumped by Black Panther during a stupid super-mega-crossover event, and even getting her own Asgardian hammer that grants her the powers of a god But in next week's Uncanny[...]

Iceman's character journey since his younger self was outed as gay has been one of self-exploration, figuring out who he is as both a person and a

The clone sisters have found themselves in quite a conundrum in next week's X-23 #8. Having captured an assassin who appears to be a cyborg version of a

As we dive headlong into what's sure to be the unprecedented @#$%show of 2019, it's time to start the new year off right by making wild predictions about

With final order cutoff approaching for Age of X-Man Alpha, the one-shot that will kick off the X-Men's latest alternate universe adventure, writer Zac Thompson took to Twitter to post a FAQ about the book, simultaneously providing us with excellent fodder for a clickbait article. Check it out: So we've been getting a lot of questions about[...]

Marvel chose to end 2018 by screwing us out of our weekend article material by not releasing previews for its comics hitting stores tomorrow. What, you

Then we thought about it and realized, what the hell have you readers ever done to make this column great?! We spend hours each week reading and writing about every X-Men comic that comes out, and what do you do? Click on them and read them? Clearly there's an imbalance of effort here and you[...]

During this happiest time of the year (relatively speaking), we figure it's as good a time as any to revisit one of the happiest times in comics, which is, of course, anytime the legendary Chris Claremont is writing the X-Men Of course, there's no reason Chris Claremont couldn't still be writing an X-Men comic right now,[...]
