In 1997, Toy Biz released a line of action figures called “X-Men: Monster Armor” where the X-Men got cool Halloween costume looking snap-on accessories. This had no basis in any other piece of X-Men media, but that was the toy industry for you. I must assume Si Spurrier spent his life working to get a…
Judgment comes to David Haller as the world starts to burn. Given Legion’s recent defeat at the hand of Uranos, and his inability to save the people of Arakko, how good are his chances? Find out how David makes his case to Earth’s newest god in Legion of X #6, written by Si Spurrier, drawn…
Arakko has fallen. The Eternal Uranos and his war machines razed the red planet until it knew nothing but loss. A pillar of mutant society fell to avenge those who suffered. The greatest Omega warriors stood against him. It wasn’t enough. How shall we judge the protectors who did not protect? Legion Of X #6…
Legion is possessed, the Altar and all who reside within it are under threat and a judge who can wipe people out of existence with a glance has shown up to hide the evidence of her blasphemous god summoning. This is what happens when you mess about with mutants, gods and omega-level psychics. Legion of…
How much power does belief really hold? Krakoa is in crisis as mutants question their belief in their leaders, their peers, and their Gods. It’s up to Nightcrawler (after a steamy night and following day with the Weaponless Zsen) and the Legionnaires to answer this question in Legion of X #4, written by Si Spurrier,…
There are demons in all of us — but if you’re a resident of Krakoa, that can often be a very literal problem. As Pixie traps the body-hopping Skinjacker and tracks down his body, Nightcrawler and Zsen head through the Astral Plane to find a lost god, only for both cases to collide in Legion…
The Legionnaires have only just been founded but they have a number of cases on their hands. A skinjacker running amok, a mischievous god on the loose, and Mother Righteous wheeling and dealing her way across Krakoa. Are any of these related? All signs point to yes. Can Nightcrawler and the Legionnaires keep track of…
The Way of X has been discovered, and that way is the Spark. Now the Spark must be protected, and out of a station located on the Astral Plane, tucked inside Legion’s mind, Nightcrawler has formed a new policing force to keep the Spark alive. The Legion of X’s first major mission? Arakko’s missing a…
Mutants have history. Ridiculous amounts of history. Despite the friendly, reassuring #1s emblazoned on these new X-Comics we’re getting, don’t be fooled — that history’s going to be coming up again, and again, and again. While every writer tries to be as welcoming to new readers as possible, there’s only so much they can do…
Doctor Strange. Black Cat. Taskmaster. Hunter’s Moon. Together, they are … a bunch of characters Jed MacKay has written in the past five years! No shade, though. Marvel writers teaming up their pet characters is a time-honored tradition. It’s how Misty Knight ended up being Jean Grey’s roommate in the 1970s. It’s why Norrin Radd…
Count Nefaria’s headed to the convention center, where his attempt to give himself eternal youth either will, or won’t, blow up midtown!

Our story concludes in New Mutants:…
Our heroes have barely escaped Count Nefaria’s villain-team tryouts; their covers are thoroughly blown, but they’ve got the suitcase with the Weird Engine, and the Count would like it back. Will he catch them? Will they escape him for good? Will the story conclude? Don’t count on any of those events in the pulse-pounding, sparklingly…

Dani, Galura and Xuân may or may not be trapped in someone else’s story! Find out who escapes in New Mutants: Lethal Legion #3, written by Charlie…
Wolfsbane and Morgan get lost in the Morlock tunnels! Gabby Kinney gets into yet more fistfights! And our beloved Shela Sexton, trans mutant and body-swap master, gets…. drunk?

Escapade, who can switch bodies with anyone (temporarily), has moved to Krakoa (maybe just temporarily). Cerebella, who now has a body (maybe permanently!), feels bored and sad. How about they do a caper together? The New Mutants return with a new creative team in New Mutants: Lethal Legion #1 by writer Charlie Jane Anders, artist…
