Deadpool & Wolverine was a tribute to all the crappy non-MCU movies that existed before and in some cases during the MCU. And yet, you know who wasn’t in it? Nicolas Cage. The Ghost Rider. Maybe Marvel couldn’t afford him. Maybe no one thought to ask him. Maybe he doesn’t get along with Wesley Snipes….
â It was the last week of July, 2019. House of X #1 had come out and I wasnât convinced. I loved the artwork. I was interested in what Jonathan Hickman was setting up. My growing group of comics-obsessed friends were already proclaiming it a hit. But I was still spending that week being the…

“Boy, it really feels like they’re rushing to end Krakoa,” say a lot of people reading a lot of X-books for the past year. And yet. Over in Benjamin Percy’s protected little corner of the island, the Sabretooth War has been going on for 10 issues. Ten issues of a bunch of Sabreteeth ripping through…
Most Marvel series don’t go 50 issues these days, let alone creator runs, so it’s pretty remarkable that writer Benjamin Percy got to go out on top with two 50-issue runs, of Wolverine and X-Force. The latter, of course, has already wrapped, but the former still has a couple more weeks in it before its…
Last time, in X-Force #48, the team awakened a clone of Beast whose memories date to when he was a member of the New Defenders, meaning he’s missed out on about three “We Didn’t Start the Fire”s’ worth of events. Don’t worry, Hank, we’ll catch you up. Defenders split, X-FactorThen the Mutant MassacreWarren gets some…

Of all the X-Men, Wolverine was always the one who played best with the wider Marvel Universe. He’s fought alongside Captain America in World War II, hunted Wendigos with the Hulk and locked webs with Spider-Man. So it’s been nice watching him go on a series of standalone adventures in which he teams up with…

For years of publishing time now, Colossus has been puppeted by the Chronicler at the behest of his brother, Mikhail Rasputin. But now that Krakoa has fallen, it looks like Colossus has neared the end of his usefulness, and Mikhail has set his sights on a new organization to infiltrate … Orchis. Cool. Kill ’em…
Jean left the team. Beast turned out to be a war criminal. Logan was always sidetracked by solo adventures. Colossus turned out to be his brother’s thrall. Deadpool is working for Steve Rogers again.
