  • Jonathan Hickman Announces Marvel X-Men Multiyear Plan

    Jonathan Hickman Announces Marvel X-Men Multiyear Plan

    Marvel Comics has hired Jonathan Hickman to create a multiyear plan to restore the X-Men to their rightful place as one of the top selling comic series at Marvel. As we all know, the X-Men comics have kind of been all over the place the last few years. We are very excited to see what Hickman (Fantastic Four, The Avengers, The New Avengers) can do to revamp the X-Men comics series.

    New Mini Series

    To start things off, we are going to get two new miniseries: House of X and Powers of X. Both of these series will be different but a great starting off point for Hickman. According to Hickman, House of X is set in the present, while Powers of X looks at mutants throughout the history of the Marvel Universe.

    Big things are definitely in store and it seems that Hickman has been planning this for a long time:

    “This is something I’ve been writing and rewriting in my head since I was a kid,” he says. “I’ve been in the kitchen for a long time with it. I get the ingredients, I get what makes a good meal.” 

    House of X will be available on July 24, 2019 and Powers of X will come out the following week on July 31, 2019.

    House of X

    The first five covers of House of X has been revealed, check them all out below.

    How Can the Film Industry Learn from Comics? Sitting Down with David Baxter on Legion M

    Wondercon has come and gone so quickly this year. It is definitely one of our favorite comic conventions of the year. It is also a great way to kick out con season!

    If there’s one thing I’ve learned from my foray into the world of comics, it’s that the creativity of creators and the community knows no bounds. This was before I had ever attended a large convention. I had the great opportunity of attending WonderCon in Anaheim at the end of March. While overwhelming, it was amazing to me the dedication to creativity that the culture fosters.

    On the second day of the event, I approached a booth and was met with a tall man dressed and made up as The Hound from Game of Thrones. This man was David Baxter. Previously working as a writer at Image Comics, he is now the VP of Development at Legion M. A fan-owned entertainment company, behind films like the cult classic Mandy starring Nicolas Cage and the upcoming Jay and Silent Bob Reboot. Legion M, like the culture behind comics, is trying to foster creativity in new ways for the film industry.
