These Emma Frost redesigns are nothing less than fabulous
It’s somewhat surprising that our team hasn’t yet done the most fashion-forward mutant with the most looks to her name, Emma Frost, the White Queen. Well, darlings, that’s being addressed now!

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