Thanks for the answer.I'll be honest, Grunty: I don't take that assumption as true in the least. If that were true, books like Ms. Marvel would not have become the sales juggernauts they became.
But as a 38-year-old male Marvel collector who became a buyer in 1999, I'll meet you halfway on this to answer your point: NYX is the story of Marvel's most storied superhero location, New York City, as it adapts to the epoch-defining diaspora of mutants in a post-Krakoa world. It is the only X-book to take place in New York State, the traditional home of the X-Men, and centers new storylines and contexts for Ms. Marvel and X-23, two storied Marvel characters, as well as Prodigy, who fans got to know on Gillen and McKelvie's landmark run on Young Avengers. We also have a big, classic 90's X-villain in the book that we've yet to announce. Suffice to say, if a thing happens to mutants, it will resonate in NYX - and if something big happens in NYX, it will be impossible to ignore in the wider Marvel universe.
We're the community-centered X-Book in a line of superhero titles, where nearly any character can appear and take the spotlight for 20 pages. I think we'll have plenty to offer folks like me - and hopefully even more to offer folks who look, act, identify, and read differently than me!
