It’s a great time to be an X-Men fan! In addition to their animated resurgence in Marvel Studios’ X-Men ’97, the X-Men’s comic book line is closing out its’ revolutionary Krakoan age of storytelling AND gearing up for the all-new From the Ashes era this summer! To celebrate this iconic franchise’s recent milestone, acclaimed artist Scott Koblish has crafted an insanely epic connecting cover that will grace some of the most highly-anticipated upcoming X-Men comic releases. The piece will be presented as a wraparound cover on four issues, starting with June’s X-Men #35, the 700th issue of Uncanny X-Men. Then, it can be found on the debut issues of the three From the Ashes flagship titles—Jed MacKay and Ryan Stegman’s X-Men #1, Gail Simone and David Marquez’s Uncanny X-Men #1, and Eve L. Ewing and Carmen Carnero’s Exceptional X-Men #1.
Showcasing the entirety of the X-Men’s 60-year publication history, including core X-Men series as well as spinoffs and limited series, this breathtaking group shot spotlights A-List X-Men, obscure mutants, super villains, allies, super hero guest stars, and much more. Test your knowledge of the mutant mythos by finding your favorites and identifying as many characters as you can!
