Storm has spent the past few years not so much as a superhero but as the leader of a people, defending the broken land of Arakko from threats foreign and domestic. It would be a disservice to the character to simply put her back on the X-Men. So let’s make her an Avenger again. At…

Mister Sinister is an asshole. That’s not a hot take, even if I said a swear. He is. We had a whole crossover about it just last year. So when he extends a listening ear and, surprisingly, some actual empathy to his conspirator of many decades, Destiny, it comes off as surprising. Did he alter…
The X-Men have had many generations of new mutants, from, well, the New Mutants, to Generation X, to the Morrison era/Academy X kids, to, technically, the O5 X-Men who got pulled forward in time, to whatever little ferals were running around Krakoa and apparently are being shunted off to the White Hot Room for not…
Krakoa took a lot out of Logan, especially toward the end. So it makes sense he’d want to get away for a little bit, hide out from society, maybe run around with some wolves even though he’s named after a cousin of the ferret. Thus begins the new Wolverine series by writer Saladin Ahmed (Daredevil)…

I’ve never been a Fantastic Four guy, but I gotta say, every time I dip into this current iteration of the series, I have a great time. I read the previous issue, #19, where the Trapster uses a Cosmic Cube to trap the FF in a noir where Alicia Masters plays the private dick and…
THE END IS NIGH! The Krakoan Age is nearly at an end … and what might be the final battle of the heroes of Krakoa. One last stop before the fall and rise come to their conclusion, and everything changes. X-Men # 34 is written by Gerry Duggan, drawn by Joshua Cassara, colored by Romulo…

It wasn’t that long ago that Mystique yelled “I want my wife back!” in 2020’s X-Men #6, making text what students of Chris Claremont knew to be true for far longer, that Raven Darkholme and Irene Adler were a queer couple whose love dated back decades. (Around that same time, they also kissed on panel…
