'X-Men,' 'X-Force,' 'Excalibur' and more will be revived this fall.
The new titles, as revealed by Hickman, X-Men senior editor Jordan White, Marvel editor-in-chief C.B. Cebulski, and executive editor Nick Lowe, were:Eschewing a traditional team line-up, the series will be “kind of a tour de force of the X-Men world,” according to Hickman. Featuring Rogue, Gambit, Jubilee, Rictor, and Apocalypse, the team will feature a brand new Captain Britain — who happens to be Betsy Braddock, the sister of the original Captain Britain.
Little was revealed about the series beyond the character listing of X-23, Cable and Psylocke, aside from the panel making pains to point out that Psylocke is not the same character who has used that name since the mid-1980s. The traditional X-Men black ops concept has a whole set-up, combining an intelligence operation and a… more deadly one. Characters involved include Jean Grey, Beast, Sage, Wolverine, Kid Omega and Domino.
White and Hickman teased that, although these six series were all that was being announced today, more X-Men titles would be added as the relaunch continues. “We have a whole bunch of wave 2 books — or is that wave 3? — that we’re going to talk about not too far away from now,” Hickman said. “It’s really going to be a big X-Men world,” White added.
