Next month, industry superstars Gail Simone and David Marquez bring the X-Men home in a new run of UNCANNY X-MEN. In the wake of Krakoa’s fall and Professor X’s imprisonment, the series sees Rogue take on the responsibility of leader by reuniting a core team of X-Men at a new home in New Orleans. It’s a new era for one of the most groundbreaking titles in comic book history, and today, fans can check out all the stunning covers that will grace the highly-anticipated first issue!
Among the covers are exciting shots of the new team lineup by acclaimed artists Leinil Francis Yu, Andy Kubert, Stephen Segovia, and series artist Marquez; the first in a series of team member spotlights by Luciano Vecchio; and a gorgeous Negative Space Variant Cover of Jubilee by best-selling cover artist John Tyler Christopher. Plus, enjoy a throwback to one of Rogue’s most memorable tales in a Hidden Gem Variant Cover by the legendary Jim Lee. Also available is the third part of Scott Koblish’s epic Wraparound Connecting Variant Cover that will test even the most diehard X-Fan’s knowledge, an eye-catching collage piece by Mr Garcin, and a logo variant cover.
In today’s world, mutants need the X-Men more than ever. With Professor X gone, Rogue reluctantly finds herself as the X-Man designated to keep the team together. Rogue, Wolverine, Gambit, Nightcrawler, and Jubilee forge a new home in a New Orleans, and when four mysterious young mutants show up at their doorstep, that home becomes a haven. Protecting mutants from a world that hates and fears them, and using their powers to ensure there’s a future worth living in. They are the Uncanny X-Men!
