See, I never really fukked with the x-men (outside of the cartoons/games) until about 99/'00 with Morrison's New X-Men run and Claremont's Xtreme X-Men. Of course i got familiar with their history and read up on a number of backstories... but these color coded x-men teams is more so one of those things that i "heard about" back in the day. So if this is a throwback to how things were in the 80s/90s, then i can see why or if ppl are excited, as that seemed to be a popular time for them. Tbh, only thing i'm mildly curious about is if they actually bring back "the" Jean Grey after keepin her dead for about a decade, esp after the major swerve they did with Hope Summers.

Not too heavy on the X-Men.

I'm about to start with the Grant Morrison run and read up to the current time, atleast the main books.

Prolly not gonna read all the random side comics.

So basically we already know how Inhumans vs X-Men ends and pretty much everything going on in the titles right now is irrelevant. Another bunch of new #1's, new costumes, etc. The X-Men used to be my favorite super hero team but honestly not really excited about this new launch. :francis:

S can we assume somewhere behind the scenes Fox said.... fukk it lets work together...... Cause this new slate of X-Men books is radically different than the "fukk mutants" stuff Marvel has been pushing the last decade+

It's starting to look like it's about that time, right? Generation X might bring in new mutants, which they explicitly said they weren't doing since they didn't want to give Fox new material.

After Logan, seems like it'd be a good time to make a clean break from the old X-Men, and roll out a MCU version (we ain't about to believe there will be no on screen representation of fukking Wolverine).

Marvel has backed off of Inhumans HEAVY on the movie/TV front

And there was that rumor from I think last year after Fantastic Four flopped that Fox and Marvel had started talking.

On top of that, cutting the deal seems like a win for everybody. Only Marvel faces real risk (saturation/burnout point has to be somewhere in the near future for Marvel).

I know I'm probably just connecting dots that aren't really there, but if that shyt happens........:wow:

I really doubt Fox will give up the X-Men rights or even do a joint deal like Sony did with Marvel when it comes to Spider-Man. The X-Men films make Fox too much money especially with what Deadpool did this year.

I can definitely see Fox giving up Fantastic Four though which I wouldn't have a problem with.
