A new team of heavy-hitting mutants forms this February with Weapon X-Men

Violent and brutal, Weapon X-Men is a new series from Marvel that’ll bring together the likes of Wolverine, Cable, Chamber, and more.

New X

While there’s a ton of X-books out there already here in the post-Krakoan era, there’s always room for one more. Well, there is when it’s packed with fan-favorite heroes anyway, and when it comes to Weapon X-Men, that seems to be exactly the case. We’re not talking about all oversaturated superstars either, as several mutant heroes make a welcome reappearance for the fresh series.

The book will unleash a five-pack of heroes that includes Wolverine, Deadpool, and Cable, plus Generation X’s Chamber, and seldom seen X-Man Thunderbird. Joe Casey is the writer responsible for this new conglomeration, who’ll be joined by artist ChrisCross for what certainly seems like one heck of a first-mission.

Why’s that? Because ushering in Weapon X-Men is none other than a One World Under Doom crossover.

WOLVERINE! DEADPOOL! CABLE! CHAMBER! THUNDERBIRD! Together on their very own X-team for the very first X-time – all in an X-tra-sized first issue! When a high-stakes mutant rescue mission from the ultimate global hot spot exposes the true enemy – possibly from within – an all-new team of all-action icons suddenly find themselves forged in fire. And the official membership policy is…no mercy allowed! Accept no substitutes – this is the one you didn’t even know you were waiting for! This is the real thing! 

“When I pitched this series over a year ago, I knew it was going to be big… but writing a brand-new, premier super-team of top-tier, marquee mutants as they take on some of the most iconic villains in the modern Marvel Universe has turned out to be even more fun than I could’ve dreamed of,” Casey shared. “If you’re a longtime fan of the expansive nature of the Marvel Universe — like I am — you don’t want to miss out. WEAPON X-MEN is going to be dangerous, unpredictable and classic all at the same time!”
