Marvel Comics struck gold in 2014 with the Kamala Khan, the newest Ms. Marvel. The character was fun, fresh and unique. Then G. Willow Wilson stopped writing her and in an effort to be nice, I’m going to refrain from expanding on my thoughts vis a vis Marvel fumbling the bag. But good news for…
Over the last few years, Abigail Brand has been plotting and planning for the betterment of Earth. She has done great things like stabilizing the galactic economy and killing Henry Peter Gyrich as well as terrible things like a lot of racism. Her plans are beginning to come to fruition in the form of the…

In 2024, the copyright for Mickey Mouse is set to expire. That’s not to say it won’t be extended — it’s happened twice since 1984 — but could you imagine a timeline where the mascot of the largest entertainment conglomerate in the world is allowed to roam free, teaming up with everyone from Batman to…
Ben Percy and Corey Smith have been quietly making a killer Ghost Rider book over the last year. It’s a comic that basks in being a comic, one that enjoys the dumb fun of being about a demonic, on-fire, motorcycle riding skeleton. In this latest preview, Ghost Rider and his new goth FBI agent friend,…
You ever here about a journalism term called “burying the lede”? Well here at ComicsXF we refuse to do that. We put the lede right there in the headline. Disaster gals doing wresting moves and looking hot doing it. Leah Williams and Carlos Gomez are doing God’s work here and we love it. Check out…
I honestly forgot this book was coming out. It was so two-thousand and late. But it’s finally here, Deadly Neighborhood Spider-Man #1, the book where a guy from The Black Eyed Peas writes a story where Spider-Man fights the Demon Bear from New Mutants. I got a feeling that Taboo, B. Earl and Juan Ferreyra…
If you listened to some of the folks at New York Comic Con this year, you might have thought they hadn’t had a convention last year at all. I assure you, it happened. I was there. But the reality is that after a year off in 2020, and a limited rollout in 2021, 2022’s NYCC…
Arakko has fallen. The Eternal Uranos and his war machines razed the red planet until it knew nothing but loss. A pillar of mutant society fell to avenge those who suffered. The greatest Omega warriors stood against him. It wasn’t enough. How shall we judge the protectors who did not protect? Legion Of X #6…
The world of 2099 is a strange one. A world where mega corporations have consolidated all commerce and life to serve their ends. It would be called late-stage capitalism, but that implies there is an end in sight. Who could imagine such an existence? This is what Kate Pryde and her Marauders face in our…
There’s a lot of people talking about Al Ewing’s X-Men: Red these days, but let me tell you about another red-clad chad Al Ewing is writing. That’s right, it’s Ant-Man time again. Rising superstar Tom Reilly is here with Alucard Ewing to take us on a journey through the history of the Ant-Men. This time,…
Breaking up sucks. Sometimes you gotta just get together with your best gals and dance it out. Hi, 42-year-old straight guy here for X-TERMINATORS, the comic where Dazzler, Boom-Boom, Jubilee and possibly also Wolverine make bad decisions, blow shit up and fight vampires in a comic so presumably messed up it comes with a mature-readers’…
The Hellfire Gala may be long over (except in X-Men Unlimited by Steve Foxe and Alan Robinson literally right now), but the party never ends as long as Moria X is in the house! That’s right everyone’s favorite megalomaniacal supervillain robot lady with a hat and a bad attitude is back in Amazing Spider-Man #9…
Devil Dinosaur is missing and Moon Girl has recruited Wolverine and Havok to save the day. See the X-Men and also a small child take on the High Evolutionary next week in Mohale Mashigo & David Cutler’s X-Men & Moon Girl #1. We’ve got a preview here and in it, Havok gets a Hippo head….
You ever think about Robert Kirkman’s frankly underwhelming career at Marvel? I do. Before he was a zillionaire for his zombie comics, he did a bunch of comics that people forget about like late-stage Ultimate X-Men or Marvel Team-Up. It’s… well it’s a career. The most memoriable of that era was, of course, The Irredeemable…
