Sinister and Destiny share a nice moment(?!) in our EXCLUSIVE preview of X-Men Forever #4

Dan Grote1 year ago1 year ago02 mins

Mister Sinister is an asshole. That’s not a hot take, even if I said a swear. He is. We had a whole crossover about it just last year. So when he extends a listening ear and, surprisingly, some actual empathy to his conspirator of many decades, Destiny, it comes off as surprising. Did he alter…

That’s (nearly) a wrap on the Krakoa era in May’s X-Men comics

Dan Grote1 year ago1 year ago010 mins

One more month. One more month of Krakoa. One more month till we find out what’s next. One more month till we find out whether this Gail Simone Free Comic Book Day story has anything to do with anything. One more month (or maybe two) until we learn what that “From the Ashes” teaser means….

EXCLUSIVE: Mystique revealed on this variant cover to X-Men Forever #1

Dan Grote1 year ago1 year ago03 mins

Recently, right-wing pundits have begun to circulate the theory that Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce’s relationship is a psy-op for the government, and that at halftime at the Super Bowl, they will preempt Usher to announce their endorsement of Joe Biden for president, using Swift’s vast influence as a pop culture icon to steer the…

Dan Grote1 year ago1 year ago012 mins

Historically, when the X-Men have needed the backing of other heroes, if the Avengers aren’t out facing some other universe-ending threat, they’re engaging the mutants in a misunderstanding-based fight before teaming up against a common foe. Steve Rogers tries,…
