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,[...]

Marvel decided they needed to publish seven X-Men comics the week before Christmas and this thing is already pushing 3,000 words, so let's get right to the recaps. Sworn to sell comics for Marvel executives who feared and hated the fact that Fox owned their movie rights, The Uncanny X-Men suffered great indignities, but with a corporate merger[...]

The X-Men have long fought for mutants and humans in a world that hates and fears them, leading by example in the face of prejudice But X-Force are not the X-Men.

This week's issue of Uncanny X-Men left readers with quite a cliffhanger, as Legion transported both the young X-men and X-Man to the Age of Apocalypse And once they arrived, the young X-Men seemed to have some changes to their appearance and, apparently, their power sets When next week's Uncanny X-Men #7 picks things up,[...]

Marvel has released the solicits for March's issues of X-Force by Ed Brisson and Dylan Burnett, continuing Ahab's quest to destroy all mutants in X-Force #4. But in X-Force #5, it looks like we'll be taking a break from the action to explore the origins of Kid Cable, the younger version of Cable who went back[...]

And then, presumably, X-terminate them! Cyclops is back, baby, and after joining up with the also recently returned Wolverine in February to rebuild the X-Men from the ground up, Cyclops will apparently be back to his old proactive ways, assembling a list of "things the X-Men have to take care of" in March's Uncanny X-Men #13[...]

Either way, White is behaving like one, because he just ghosted on the most sacred holiday for all X-Men fans, X-Men Monday, with no notice!

Iceman has been trying hard to prove to the Morlocks and their leader Madin that the X-Men really do care about them, despite the fact that they're mostly hideously mutated and live in the sewers But no matter how hard he tries, he just can't seem to do anything right Last issue, Iceman located Madin's[...]

Okay, we may have made that last one up… or did we? In any case, threatening to mess with foundational stories of Spider-Man, the Fantastic Four, and the Avengers is one thing, but when Marvel starts threatening to rewrite classic X-Men stories like the Dark Phoenix Saga, that's where we have to draw the line[...]

Following up on plans to rewrite the history of the origin of the Fantastic Four, rewrite the history of Spider-Man No More, and rewrite the history of The Avengers finding Captain America in the ice, Marvel has predictably released yet another teaser for their "Marvel History Is Destroyed" event coming in March 2019.
