Test for Non-Member Post: Marvel's new X-Men #1 shows off what the From the Ashes future for the franchise really looks like in action
Hated, feared, and a new status quo that feels curiously familiar, the X-Men are back with only cosmetic changes
The release of X-Men #1 by Jed McKay and Ryan Stegman (with J.P. Meyer, Marte Gracia, and Clayton Cowles) marks the official launch of X-Men: From the Ashes, the full-scale relaunch of Marvel’s mutant comic book line after the conclusion of the five-year-long Krakoan era that redefined the characters for a generation. After months of teases, previews, and assorted hype, fans now have a chance to see what the future of the X-Men looks like for themselves… and, based on this issue, it’s something that looks a lot like the past of the X-Men.
Spoilers for X-Men #1 follow. Do not read further unless you want to have the first full issue of X-Men: From the Ashes spoiled for you; we’ve given you the warning, it’s up to you if you heed it, humans.
