X-Men Days Of Past And Futures In Today’s X-Titles from Marvel (XSpoilers)

Today, we see the publication of five From The Ashes X-Men titles: Uncanny X-Men #8, Sentinels #4, Magik #1, NYX #7, and Wolverine #5. Which, given this is a week in which DC Comics just bumped four of their titles for next week, and with Amazing Spider-Man to boot, will probably see Marvel dominate the chart with everything save for the first place for Absolute Batman… but how are the X-Men books tying together this week?

Magik #1 is probably the most traditional of all the X-Men books, even if the main character refuses to get drawn into their community bonhomie.

While Uncanny X-Men #8 has the big bad, Warden Ellis, former Dr Corina, as, basically, a modern-day podcasting Frasier Crane.

Before he was called Scurvy, it seems that Warden Ellis’ right-hand mutant was a bit of a looker, and they had quite a thing.

But it seems that using his psychic powers took that all away…

… hence the name “Scurvy”. That’s body shaming, that is.

Over in NYX, they are being accused of inviting Sentinels. Which is a little unfair… given that is exactly what Warden Ellis is doing,

And it’s quite the invitation to Greymalkin Prison, formerly the Westchester School For Gifted Children…

… though it has had a few names over the years.

With its founder, Professor Xavier, back in the game…

…it’s time for a brand new mutant sect secret. Over the years, we have had The Twelve, The Externals, Omega Mutants and more. Now it seems that Xavier is part of another set of special bald telepathic mutants, including Scurvy… and Harvey X.

The Avians. There are five of them, maybe six including Xavier. And it comes with a death sentence. But not from bird flu.

Harvey X had visions of the future, and he’s not the only one.

But it’s still Magik, who best embodies the spirit of the past. With mutants in small town communities being harassed by people with placards. even after they’ve died.

Wolverine is catching up with old friends…

Magik prefers demons to pancakes…

…and Doctor Doom is coming.
