If you hadn’t heard, Wolverine is back. You know Wolverine, knives in his hands, can’t die, drinks beer, and says bub. He suffered from a bad case of getting covered in molten metal while his healing factor was down, but now he is roaming around like nobodies business. The problem is, we are over a…
Against all odds, I am very excited about Age of X-Man. This is an event that is going to cost me over $120 centered around X-Man, a character that, after reading literally every single comic he has been in, I despise. None the less, I feel sheer joy when thinking about Age of X-Man, and…

During the Diamond Retailer Appreciation Breakfast we learned more, so much more. Per Comics Beat AGE OF X-MAN is a 10-part weekly story that comes as a…

To advertise the success of his all-new, all-different X-Men, Marvel put out this house ad, targeting the lone Silver Age X-Men fan who hadn’t been reading the book. We can only assume that fan was Kurt Busiek. Well…
