X-Men: Before the Fall – Mutant First Strike #1 - Unlettered Preview

[Kingdom X]

Super curious about what this one-shot will lead to. It seems more thematically linked to Marauders but that series had a pretty definitive ending and I’m not seeing the Iceman connections yet.

Interesting costumes! They look kind of like a mix/combo of the movie uniforms and the Quitely/Morrison outfits. The color combination is new... def look better with the jackets unzipped because it's too much white otherwise.

Who's the character with the diamond on the forehead? Not quite Loa's markings... and I'm not super familiar with the young X-Men. Also, the one with the Shi'ar shaped hair?

EDIT: Never mind, read the article more closely and it said Theia and Cerebra.

Heh, is this an honest typo or a Freudian-slip?

[Arachne]

I don't normally correct someone's spelling, but you might want to edit the term "one-shot".

I love that no matter how destructive the mutants on this team are they all have the power to heal the real world and those in it. Which makes the name make sense. I'm getting E.R, Grey's antaomy, Fire Figters all rolled up in one and it could be a GOOD series.

Iceman can heal global warming problems and many other direct issues with his.
Storm and her elemental powers the same and more, throw in magic.
Triage can control life force and also heal people and things restoring balance.
You have cyclops and bishop as constant batteries.
You have omega telepath Jean as the ulimate conduit balancer. She can heal minds.
and you have perfection herself monet to add the dynamo. She can heal doubt.
with a dash of warren to offer true hope and grief as Angel and Dark Angel. He can heal hearts.
and tempo to balance the time of it all to make it burn. She can heal time.

This is like the ultimate conduit team in my mind.

I love the new jackets and bishop leading in a crisis. I may die of happiness.

Marauders as a team as of Orlandos direction in X-Men Green doesnt seem to have a fixed team. In the unlimited series we saw Magik and others pick up the jacket and join the team briefly to assist.

I was liking until I saw the characters from Marauders... Don't make me remember that cr#p. But the art looks cool. I love when the characters wear matching uniforms, although this one is not the best, it is fine.

The villains here look like those random people the Marauders used to fight in the b-plot issues of Marauders, so that doesn't excite either. But it is cool to see a team with some of the best X-men. They are usually spread between many teams these days.

I'm just trying to guess if this one shot is supposed to close something from Marauders or prepare for something that is coming down the line.

[Mercury]

I love seeing everyone here together like this, and I'm glad Bishop is leading. I like the new duds, too. I'm looking forward to this.

[Kitty&Piotr<3]

Love the jackets.

One of these 5 must be about to die, because I've never seen 5 black mutants in one focused piece before.

I zoomed in on Ororo's face in the first scan and had a good laugh... art aside that's a great line up.

[Factor]

That's a cool team.

[Taurean Sun]

Woah ohk maybe I should tune in. 7th June is it. Ohk.

This is from a few months back but Karma indeed confirmed and I can't wait to see Tag too!

Karma. Triage. Tag.

BEFORE THE FALL: MUTANT FIRST STRIKE is on its way from me, @Marvel and @PintiValentina!



Orlando said the team makeup changes based on the emergency so that's why we don't see Wind Dancer and some of the others from the Unlimited issue when the first responder team debuted. Glad Triage is back though!

The mystery is if/how this concept will continue in another book. Maybe it's the unannounced super secret title?

Not just ororo bishop and jean also look a little bit bwonky. But it gets better in the following panels.
