Great art. Some of the characters depicted though, are ...... odd choices for a major anniversary issue. Or more accuratly some of these choices are odd in that they are choosen over other characters that SHOULD be on this poster......

Also now am wondering who is flying the blackbird. Most of its normal pilots are already on the cover. Cyclops, Wolvie, Rouge, Jean, who else has flown it over the years... I know a lot but how many have pilots license or know I wonder.

For real... though, where's Mystique and Destiny? Some of the character choices seem a bit odd. Like, wtf did Gateway do in the Krakoan age?

[CGAR]

well its for the end of the krakoa era so it makes sense

Mystique is right there

Apparently I'm getting blind in my old age.

[MVComics]

pretty much confirms gail simone is part of the new era

Gateway was in a few issues related to Penance wasnt he? Does that count.

Pogg-ur-Pogg is an interesting choice, for instance. Dani, Roberto, and Karma are conspicuously absent from the New Mutants. Any of them could have taken Kid Cable's place. Aldo neither Proudstar brother is there.

Illyana riding on Piotr's shoulder is a cute touch.

My thoughts exactly. While I love the cover, my personal preference would've been a celebratory Uncanny X-Men cover showing only people who have been members of the Uncanny X-Men. That crocodile is so distracting... haha

'X-Men' #35, the milestone 700th issue of Uncanny X-Men!

None of this statement makes any kind of logical sense.

[CGAR]

omfg i just notice Jerome Opena listed. PLEASE PLEASE be an artist in the new era.

[Sandmans_Raven]

That's a nice cover. Of course my eye was immediately drawn to Gambit breaking the 4th wall lol

[sunofdarkchild]

The cover is mostly meant to show people who have been important during the Krakoa era, not throughout X-Men history. That's the real reason these specific villains and people like Gabby are there and Moira is so close to Charles and Eric. Still doesn't explain Pogg's presense or why Sunspot isn't there given how major he's been in Red.

[Project Initiative Cascada]

Definitely beautiful Larraz art but yeah there’s a lot of glaring omissions. Kwannon probably had the biggest glowup in the Krakoa era and was consistently used but not there? Destiny, Rachel and Monet as well.
