Marvelโs X-Men relaunch is getting bigger with the addition of newย Wolverineย andย X-Factorย series. These new series join the initially announced flagship series,ย X-Men, Uncanny X-Men, andย Exceptional X-Men. These three series would be helmed by some of the best talent in the biz like Jed MacKay and Gail Simone. Soon after the first announcement, Marvel revealed thatย X-Force,ย Phoenix, andย NYXย would be the next titles for the relaunch. Now, these two new titles will help flesh out the X-Men: From the Ashes era when it officially launches this summer.ย
Wolverine And X-Factorย
Marvel released a teaser for both Wolverine and X-Factor claiming both will debut this August. While an official announcement has not been made, the publisher promises something official happening later this week. However, while we donโt have a synopsis the teasers did reveal a quick logline for each. We also got a look at the logo for each, which gives off traditional X-Men vibes.
Forย X-Factor, Marvel shares the slogan โOfficially sanctioned to protect a world thatย hates and fearsย loves and adores themโ. It sounds like the X-Factor series will follow another group of mutants given permission to work in the public eye to stop anti-mutant hate. Meanwhile, the tagline forย Wolverineย states, โHeโd kill for some alone time, but the fight always finds him. Itโs in his bonesโ.ย
Ready For A Relaunch
The X-Men: From the Ashes relaunch is quickly approaching and everyday Marvel is getting readers pumped for whatโs in store. Withย Wolverineย andย X-Factorย we now know of eight new X-titles coming soon. These titles will usher in a post-Krakoan age for mutants. The hints we have so far is that this new age will focus on the X-Men format of the past: the classic villain vs. hero format. It will also explore what it means to be an X-Man.ย
