Not reading X-Men comics from roughly 2004 to 2017 means I almost completely skipped Jubilee’s vampire phase, save for the tail end of it in the Christina Strain/Amilcar Pinna Generation X series. Hey, didn’t Jubilee have a kid, too? What happened there?…
The first thing you should know is that without Krakoa, I might not be alive. If I don’t pick up that Black Panther comic in 2016 and fall in love with the genre … if the Xavier Files doesn’t do those brilliant deep dives into those introductory House of X and Powers of X books…
All good things must come to an end, and as good of a thing as the Krakoan era has been for mutantkind, its time has come at last. The tragedy and triumph of FALL OF THE HOUSE OF X, the madness and mystery of RISE OF THE POWERS OF X, they have all come to…
Each week, ComicsXF staff offer their recommendations for what to read. New DC books come out Tuesdays (for now), everything else Wednesdays.

It’s the final battle against Nimrod as the end of the Krakoa Era is just issues away in Fall of the House of X #5, written by Gerry Duggan, art by Lucas Werneck & Stefano Caselli, colors by Bryan Valenza, and letters by Travis Lanham. Scott Redmond: As the Krakoan era continues to crawl towards…
“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…
Last week, Marvel gave us DOOM, a one-shot where writer Jonathan Hickman let artist Sanford Greene take the wheel and tell a balls-out story about the hastened death of the universe. It ruled.
