Preview: X-Men #1

A brand new team of Children of the Atom head into battle in the brand new X-Men #1.

An old enemy shows up at the X-Men’s door, seeking asylum from an ancient evil come back to Earth. Meanwhile, Jubilee has come home, and she’s brought with her an orphaned baby who might hold the key to the Earth’s survival…or its destruction! With an imminent alien invasion and an eons-spanning war between brother and sister around the corner, Storm steps up and puts together a team to protect the child and stop a new threat that could destroy all life in the Marvel Universe!

Writer Brian Wood (what isn’t he writing right now?) and artist Oliver Coipel are crafting a pretty interesting new team of X-Men with the latest revision of the book. An all-female team isn’t something that’s ever happened before and, at least while it lasts, it should make for an interesting read for X-fans.

X-Men #1 hits stands on May 29th from Marvel Comics.
