We kick off the nine month One World Under Doom Event, so we’ll see how involved any of the X-Men get.
Strange Academy is being turned into Doom Academy, which makes sense as Doctor Doom is the Sorcerer Supreme. Be nice if Magik showed up in any of these five issues.
Storm 5 has her dealing with Doom
X-Factor 7, Angel is back to leading, and he’s taking the team up against Doom. Be nice if Feral can be back too.
Red Hulk 1 just in time for Captain America : New World Order. I had not given it much thought that we’ll get a lot of Captain America and Red Hulk content.
Weapon X-Men 1, with a team featuring Chamber, which is cool, but that’s the only one on the roster to get my interest. At least it takes place in the main continuity.
Eddie Brock is the new Carnage, that should confuse some character profiles.
Captain America & Volstagg seems like a silly time.
Women of Marvel : She-Devils has Laura on the team, that seems fun. I could go for more of these minis.
Marvel Mutts 1 is collecting the digital comic in one place. Which I like as that means I can check fandom for any Lockheed appearances ahead of time. Marrow in issue 8 seems fun. No Lockheed appearances though.

- Magik’s hunt for the Liminal Seals takes her and Cal deep into the Tokyo underground.
- But who is watching Illyana from backstage?
- And has Cal teamed up with Earth’s best chance against the demon invasion or its prophesized leader?
32 PGS./Rated T+ …$3.99
who is Cal? I like her having a supporting cast already.
The Mark Brooks Animated cover has Colossus, so that one gets a pass from me.
How carefully does Magik have to put on those pants with those giant gaps in them?!

PLANETFALL!
A deadly cadre of warriors pursue their target to Earth, a target making a beeline to the X-Men’s home territory of Alaska! But who is this fugitive, and what grim portents do they carry for the X-Men?
32 PGS./Rated T+ …$4.99
Who could the fugitive be?! Also, looks like the Graymalkin crossover didn’t leave any after effects, or they are choosing not to address anything.
. . .
Mystique ends with issue 5. As does Sentinels.
X-Men double ships with issue 12, which is awkward as they placed two series between these issues. 12 has Alpha Flight. Including Aurora, so that’s cool.
Wolverine 6 has Nightcrawler and Laura, so now I’m interested.
NYX 8, Laura and Hellion have a confrontation. Which seems very juicy.
ugh, X-Force 8 has Colossus, is he Tank? At least he didn’t join X-MEN.
Uncanny X-Men 10, the Outliers can’t catch a break as they are being hunted.

WHO IS SHELDON XENOS?
AXO, the Exceptional X-Men’s resident empath, goes to work for the creator of the wildly popular Verate app. Maybe Xenos and his inventions can bring mutants the support, recognition and connection they deserve. But the charismatic technology mogul seems to be hiding a secret…or two…or four…or…
32 PGS./Rated T+ …$3.99
I’m definitely ordering me the Mark Brooks Animated cover!
another tech mogul while we’re dealing with one in X-Factor? Curious.
Fun that Axo is getting a spotlight.

VARIANT COVER by TBA
THE 8 DEATHS OF SPIDER-MAN CONTINUES!
- With Spider-Man now DEAD, it’s up to the X-Men to win the day and save the universe.
- But why are they fighting EACH OTHER?!?!
32 PGS./Rated T …$3.99
Having Magik in a Spider-Man comic is a sure fire way to get me to read a Spider-Man comic.
seems confusing there is a regular issue of 68 and 68.DEATHS that we’re interested in. Like when Marvel tried to do the .1 initiative, but still had an Uncanny X-Men 461, and a 461.1. Some titles just had the .1 and others tried to do both. Very complicated.
I do like Spider-Man and Juggernaut being in the same story again. That sounds fun.
. . .
Daredevil is under the Spider-Office? That’s interesting.
Avengers 23, Black Cat may be joining the team, and I would love to see Felicia interact with Storm.
Sam Wilson : Captain America 2 has him fighting Red Hulk, that’s good timing.
Scarlet Witch 9 has Black Cat in it too. What a month!
Marvel is really committing to red band comics with Daredevil, Warwolf by Night, and Blade.

40 PGS./Explicit Content …$7.99
the X-Men are finally getting a moment with Aliens!
Kitty got to experience Predators in Predator v Wolverine 4, so here’s hoping she gets to be in this too.
I wonder if the X-Men appear in issue 2?

32 PGS./Rated T …FREE!
not sure why Free Comic Book Day comics are being shown in February, months early, but I’m super excited for the Fantastic Four / X-Men issue.
. . .
I’m mostly excited for Exceptional X-Men, Magik’s ongoing, and I guess Magik in Amazing Spider-Man, a title she hasn’t been involved in since Dark Web.
