Wanda’s moving up in the world in our EXCLUSIVE preview of Sorcerer Supreme #1
Twenty years ago, Wanda Maximoff said, “No more mutants,” and Marvel spent the next 14 years or so trying to figure out how to give everybody their powers back. Also Wanda’s rep was damaged for a pretty long time. That, too. Then there was the whole not-a-mutant, not-Magneto’s-daughter thing. And that time she turned the…

Our EXCLUSIVE preview of Marvel’s Expatriate X-Men #3 shows us the proper way to blorbo
One of my chief quibbles with “Age of Revelation” has been the loud use of deep-pull mutants without any real examination of why they’re there or what they think about the world they’ve created. And of course, it’s hard to do that when the story is only three months long and you have to zip…
