“X-Men Legends” #1

Fabian Nicieza, known for his explosive work on the X-Men in their nineties heyday, kicks off the series with a special saga of Cyclops and Havok that will solve one of the greatest X-Men mysteries of all time: Adam-X and his startling connection to the Summers bloodline!

“It’s incredibly exciting to finally tell the story of the infamous “third” Summers brother. Twenty-five years in the making, to see the truth about Adam-X revealed – and drawn so magnificently by Brett Booth – is one of the most surreal experiences of my career!” Nicieza said. “Getting the opportunity to tell this tale while kicking off the new X-Men Legends series is a x-tremely x-citing!”

Don’t miss this revelatory tale that will leave X-Men fans speechless when X-MEN LEGENDS #1 takes the comic book industry by storm this February! And stay tuned for news about the other decades-in-the-making stories coming your way in this one-of-a-kind title.

PiercingMetal Thoughts: Now this is the kind of new series that I like to see being published. One that takes us on a journey around the time of other stories that we have long known about. Let’s face it. Other events of importance were likely happening in the X-Men family of titles and this will give the creative teams the chance to expand on them. I’ve long been a fan of Fabians writing and Brett Booth was one of my favorites from back when he was working with Image Comics. The description of this series has a slight resemblance of the “Untold Tales of Spider-Man” which I was a regular reader of when it had its 26 issue run. I’ll definitely be looking to follow this one and have it take me away during these still precarious times. What about you out there in the readership? Are you at all interested in this upcoming X-Men adjacent title? Please chime in down in the comments below and let me know what you think. I’ll see you back again sometime soon. Please also keep safe out there.
