NYX is a book about younger mutants – the ones most analogous to Zoomers – finding community as a post-Krakoan diaspora. It’s also an odd burst of 2000s nostalgia, as it largely centers on characters who were created during that decade, an era when Marvel introduced dozens of new mutants (lowercase N, lowercase M) in…

Who doesn’t love an artist’s edition book? It’s a great way to cut through the noise of a classic story and appreciate an artist’s process in oversized black and white, letting the pencils and inks do the talking. Valiant today announced, exclusively through ComicsXF, that it will publish an Artist’s Edition of 1993’s X-O Manowar…
Marvel on Monday announced five Free Comic Book Day 2025 titles, some offering warm-ups to big summer storylines, some offering sampler platters of regular titles, and one advertising shows on Disney Jr. Perhaps most relevant to this website’s interests, a Fantastic Four/Giant-Size X-Men book teases “the birth of the All-New, All-Different X-Men,” in a story…

Another like that is Catman, created in the mid-Silver Age as yet another anti-Bat before becoming a joke character, and then evolving into a morally…
