DEADPOOL, WOLVERINE, CABLE –

IT DOESN’T GET BADDER THAN THIS!

WADE WILSON is back, and he’s brought some frenemies! As the villainous THUMPER returns to take out the man who created him, WOLVERINE and CABLE step in for a daring rescue mission.

Don’t miss the highly anticipated follow-up to DEADPOOL: BAD BLOOD, as Rob Liefeld returns to the Merc with a Mouth and introduces NEW characters into his wild world who are sure to become the next fan-faves, including the first appearance of SHATTERSTORM!

Cover
AL EWING (W) • LUCA PIZZARI (A)
Cover by PEPE LARRAZ

THE ORIGIN OF ARAKKO!

X-MEN: BEFORE THE FALL – MUTANT FIRST STRIKE #1
Cover
STEVE ORLANDO (W) • Valentina Pinti (A)
Cover by DAVID BALDEÓN

KRAKOA STRIKES?!

Ever since mutants declared themselves humanity’s new gods, certain circles have been waiting for the other shoe to drop – the wrath. When a small New England town is hit by a devastating mutant attack, it seems the wrath is here. But all isn’t as it appears. And Krakoa doesn’t hesitate to save lives – so it’s time for BISHOP to lead Krakoa’s biggest rescue effort yet!


STORM #2 (OF 5)
Cover
ANN NOCENTI (W) • SID KOTIAN (A) • Cover by ALAN DAVIS

As ORORO MUNROE tries to balance her responsibilities as leader of the X-MEN, her difficult relationship with KITTY PRYDE and even a NEW LOVE INTEREST, her powers are creating deadly weather that threatens to tear it all asunder! In the eye of the storm is the powerful NEW VILLAIN BLOWBACK – but as Storm summons her strength for their first historic confrontation, will even her best be enough?

Continuing the all-new tale set during Storm’s fan-favorite punk-attired days, by legendary Marvel writer/editor Ann Nocenti.


BISHOP: WAR COLLEGE #5
Cover
Holtham (W) • Sean Damien Hill (A)
Cover by Ken Lashley

TIME IS AN UNCONQUERABLE BEAST!

Tempo traps herself and Bishop in a time loop of her past trauma. Will she be able to allow festering wounds heal so she and Bishop can figure out a way back home? Meanwhile, the War College students are fighting for their lives, and the lives of Krakoa’s mutants, against the Struckers and Orchis. Help may be on the way, but timing these days has a funny way of putting our favorite mutants in the worst positions possible. Read the last issue of the BISHOP: WAR COLLEGE miniseries to find out how this time-warped, action-packed plot ends!


BETSY BRADDOCK: CAPTAIN BRITAIN #5
Cover
Tini Howard (W) • Vasco Georgiev (A) Cover by Erica D’Urso

EARTH’S MOST FURIOUS HEROES UNITE!

And the villains alike! Morgan Le Fay has saddled up with her old lover, none other than Doctor Doom! And that can’t mean good things for the old country. But Betsy Braddock has a plan up her sleeve…and a Multiverse of allies even Morgan can’t magic-wand away. The fight for Britain, for Betsy, for Captains everywhere comes to a head!


IMMORTAL X-MEN #12
Cover
STORM OF TWO WORLDS!
Kieron Gillen (W) • Lucas Werneck (A) • Cover by Mark Brooks

A COLOSSAL MISTAKE…

The Quiet Council gather to fill the empty seat. It’s the last chance to make a smart, kind decision to prevent the fall. Luckily, the deciding vote is in the hands of trusty old Colossus. Let’s hope he hasn’t got plans to ruin everything. That would be terrible.


X-23: DEADLY REGENESIS #4
Cover
ERICA SCHULTZ (W) • EDGAR SALAZAR (A)
Cover by KALMAN ANDRASOFSZKY

LAURA ON LOCKDOWN!

KIMURA has LAURA right where she wants her! But with X-23 under Kimura’s thrall like the “good old days”…will Laura be drawn back into the life of an assassin that she put behind her? Old wounds are reopened, and drastic action is taken by X-23…and the mysterious HAYMAKER!


X-MEN #23
Cover
GERRY DUGGAN (W) • Joshua Cassara (A/C)

THE SENTINELS GET AN UPGRADE!

Anti-mutant fantasist Feilong has taken control of Tony Stark’s businesses and devoted Iron Man’s technology toward the next generation of Sentinels! These Stark Sentinels are as hard to beat as old Shell-head himself and are fully devoted to crushing the X-Men!


X-MEN RED #12
Cover
Al Ewing (W) • Jacopo Camagni (A) • Cover by STEFANO CASELLI

THE WHITE SWORD BROKEN!

The White Sword – the mutant Omega healer who could raise the dead and bind them to his service – had One Hundred Warriors. Now the first and last of the Hundred have come to tell the tale of the one who destroyed them…one who is coming to test the mutants of Arakko once again…


X-FORCE #41
Cover
BENJAMIN PERCY (W) • PAUL DAVIDSON (A)
Cover by JOSHUA CASSARA

QUENTIN QUIRE RETURNS TO OVERTHROW BEAST’S BARBARIC RULE!

The once-KID OMEGA returns to X-FORCE! But where has he been? And where is he taking the team? Mysteries will be revealed as BEAST’S dark agenda is fully exposed! (Hint: Any X LIVES OF WOLVERINE fans may want to pick this up too!)


WOLVERINE #34
Cover
BENJAMIN PERCY (W) • JUAN JOSÉ RYP (A)
Cover by LEINIL FRANCIS YU

WOLVERINE VS. WEAPONS OF X!

He’s been used. He’s been manipulated. He’s been mind-controlled. He’s even been killed. Now WOLVERINE takes the fight back to BEAST and his WEAPONS OF X program. How will one mutant fare versus an ARMY OF CLONES and a giant multistory, mobile FORTRESS/BATTLE SUIT? Good thing he’s the best there is at what he does!


DEADPOOL #8
Cover
ALYSSA WONG (W) • LUIGI ZAGARIA (A)
COVER BY MARTIN COCCOLO

CAN’T A MERC GET A BREAK?

Deadpool is once again fighting for his life when all he wants to do is retire, have a nice time with his daughter and be completely cured of his cancer – is that too much to ask? Maybe not…



ROGUE & GAMBIT #4
Cover
Stephanie Phillips (W) Carlos GÓMEZ (A)
Cover by Steve Morris

WITH THEIR POWERS COMBINED…

…Rogue and Gambit are still dead in the water! And so are the powered humans who’ve mysteriously disappeared recently. Crusher Creel, Juggernaut, Vanisher, Lady Deathstrike… What are all these (sometime) villains doing in one place, and who is pulling the strings? The gloves come off, and series secrets are revealed as this house of cards comes crashing down!


NEW MUTANTS LETHAL LEGION #4
Cover
Charlie Jane Anders (W) • Enid Balám (A) Cover by JAVI FERNÁNDEZ

STEAL FROM THE WORST!

Escapade, Cerebella and Scout’s plan to perform the ultimate heist and steal from Count Nefaria has not been going as smoothly as they would have liked. In fact, they now have to face the Count and his new nefarious Lethal Legion! Thankfully, Dani, Karma, Galura, Rahne and Morgan join the fray and will bring some order to the madness…hopefully. Maybe trying to rob an ultra-rich super villain who has his own personal league of evil minions was a little ambitious for the young mutants…

Dammit, I thought June was when they were going to fix Beast by reviving a younger version that they hinted at.

Dammit, I thought June was when they were going to fix Beast by reviving a younger version that they hinted at.

Maybe these two issues will conclude the Beast saga because then we're moving into Fall of X in July.

These 6 Books are what i'm ONLY interested in. :-) I LOVE being an X-Man Fan.

[NewMutant]

I'm not reading X-Force or Wolverine but this Beast story seems to be dragging.

No one continues to draw Iceman in his current uniform by LV. Bummer.

Immortal, X-Men, Red, Apocalypse and maybe Mutant Strike for me.

It is. Believe it's wrapping up in June or July, though. Thankfully.

Light month for me. Just Wolverine and Ultimate Invasion for me in June. Bring on Fall of X!

[Jackraow21]

Jack, you are not going to get the Deadpool Badder Blood neither?

No. Three of my favorite characters... but... written by Liefeld? Hard pass.

I read Bad Blood. It was "meh." I don't even mind his artwork. Compared to his writing it's quite good.

[Master of Sound]

Can we get an end to evil Beast's story, pleeeeease??
