Marvel Cancels All X-Men Comics Ahead of Upcoming Relaunch

The end of the X-Men’s Krakoa era is at hand. Marvel Comics has revealed its X-Men solicitations for May 2024, which show that every current X-Men series is concluding. Wolverine will go out on a milestone as Wolverine #50 closes out the run and finishes the “Sabretooth War” war story. Fall of the House of X, Rise of the Powers of X, X-Men, X-Men Forever, Cable, and Invincible Iron Man also wrap up in May 2024. Marvel is billing May as the “penultimate” month of the Krakoan age, as there are still unrevealed plans for a grand finale in June ahead of whatever comes next.

The conclusion of one era of X-Men comics and the start of another is part of a busy year for X-Men across media. X-Men ’97 debuts in March, continuing the story of X-Men: The Animated Series. Marvel released the X-Men ’97 trailer earlier this week.

The X-Men also return to the big screen this July in Deadpool & Wolverine, which features the title characters (played by Ryan Reynolds and Hugh Jackman, respectively) and likely a few other familiar faces. Marvel Studios released the first Deadpool & Wolverine during the Super Bowl to record-breaking views.

The X-Men will also be a part of Marvel’s new Ultimate Universe. Peach Momoko will take Marvel’s mutants in a new direction in her new .

The covers and solicitations for the penultimate month of the X-Men’s Krakoa era are below. All issues go on sale in May 2024.
