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…
Wanna feel ancient? Tom King and Gabriel Walta’s The Vision is 10 years old. The 12-issue series in which the android Avenger builds himself a family and they slowly erode in a malaise of existential funk – just like humans! – was launched Nov. 4, 2015. Kind of makes me want to sit here and…
Before we show you art from next week’s Scarlet Witch #9, a comic in which the Black Cat breaks into Wanda’s vault to steal some magic stuff, we’d like to show you this page from 2024’s X-Men: The Wedding Special. In that comic, which you can read more about here, Mystique and Destiny stage a…
Wanda and Pietro Maximoff are no longer on speaking terms. So when the Wizard corners each of them with his new army of Frightful Four Hundred, it will take all their ingenuity, and all their power, to survive. But can the twins save themselves without unleashing something worse? And are they really as alone as…
The Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver have been heroes, friends, family heads and occasionally villains, but, above all, they are twins who look out for each other. So when Wanda receives a letter from the recently deceased Magneto that would upset Pietro, she burns it before her brother can read it. But her choice drives them…
As the final curtain came down on the Hellfire Gala, Charles Xavier sent thousands of mutants away from Krakoa to places unknown, kickstarting the Fall of X era. As the X-office shuffled the deck, A-list mutants either returned to star in successful ongoing titles or were given headlining roles in miniseries. The vast majority found…

You thought Iceman died in the Fall of X? Not quite: He almost melted, but he got revived by … the power of love? Stay frosty with Astonishing Iceman #1, written by Steve Orlando, drawn by Vincenzo Carratù, colored by Java Tartaglia and lettered by Travis Lanham. Stephanie: This first issue in a spate of…
Really, Marvel, Scarlet Witch? Twenty-four hours since the mutants got their asses handed to them by Orchis, and you give us a preview of the comic starring the last person who successfully decimated mutantkind? That’s cold-blooded. Anyway, looks like Wanda’s doing Oz stuff next week. Check out the preview, and get the basic deets below….
Our Marauders have been to space, welcomed a mutant from 2099, taken a deep dive into the Proterozoic proto-ocean, rescued a couple of ancient mutants from yet another genocide, and wondered who made a mysterious puzzle box. Now their series is ending. Will their questions get answered in Marauders #12, written by Steve Orlando, drawn…
Our team has come back from the distant past, bringing three plucky survivors from the long-ago, now-defunct mutant society Threshold. Will Captain Kate Pryde start a time loop with their help? Also, remember that jerk Brimstone Love? He’s back too, in Marauders #11, written by Steve Orlando, art by Eleanora Carlini, colors by Matt Milla,…

This week, in another thrice told tale, we see three versions of Batman confronting Strange and his creatures. The Giants of Hugo Strange (Batman…
Billions of years in the past, a culture of proto-mutants and proto-humans faces extinction-level threats from the Unbreathing (an anaerobic civilization), from Arkea (wannabe world-dominating microorganisms), from Sublime (wannabe world-dominating microorganisms created by Grant Morrison), and from Stryfe (that guy). Can our chrono-journeying mutants save everyone? Or anyone? Time to find out in Marauders #10,…
Inconceivably long ago in the history of the Earth, the mutants (Enriched) and the non-mutant humans (Enshrined) of the community called Threshhold battle the anaerobes of the Unbreathing and the genocidal megabacteria Arkaea and Sublime. Our Marauders have come, in sealed suits, from the future to save their kin. Some will die, some will live,…
