There are a lot of good things happening with this book both inside and out. All of the X-titles have new logos on their covers as part of X-Men: Regenesis courtesy of designer Jared Fletcher. This was the first time I’d really looked at his New Mutants logo and I like it a lot, particularly the
Read more...For the past two weeks, Marvel Comics has been releasing a set of their trademark silhouetted teaser images, this time focusing on the X-Men line. With the promise of big changes to the X-Men’s status quo following the current Schism series by Jason Aaron, these teasers suggest a very different landscape for Marvel’s mutants beyond Cyclops simply

It’s a great way to discuss what you’re reading and sharing it with the MLD community seemed natural.

Four X-Men titles (Uncanny X-Men, X-Men: Legacy, New Mutants, and Uncanny X-Force) had no listings and it was clear that something was up.

Read more...Pretty typical list this week with six new books for Wednesday. ALL-NEW X-FACTOR #4 – I’m already behind on this series as a result of the All-New Marvel Now double shipping schedule, but Peter David’s X-Factor is always going to be on my list. ALL-NEW X-MEN #24 – The Trial of Jean Grey continues. I’m enjoying this crossover with Guardians of the

ALL-NEW INVADERS #1 – I’m not entirely sure I’ll be picking this up, but the All-New Marvel Now Point One story certainly piqued my interest. ALL-NEW X-FACTOR #2 – Forgot about the
