He has a project coming, but we have no idea what it will be.
He's been confirmed as writing something for Marvel in 2020, but that's all that's known.
I saw a rumor that he and Salvador Larocca were pitching an X-Book, but I can't seem to find it again to see if its a reliable rumor, and even if it's true, there's no guarantee that it's an in-continuity book, either.
EDIT:
Found it. He's definitely teasing an X-Book. Whether it's a "Dawn of X" title or a What If like "X-Men Forever" or "X-Men: The End" or a flashback series like "New Mutants: War Children" remains to be seen.

I think it's fair to say anything in the solicitations or announced at cons is probably going to be talked about in this thread.
Please let it be an in continuity X-Book titled "Uncanny X-Men"
I've been bummed that none of the new titles have that title.
NO
NO
This is NOT for discussions of any solicits. ONLY DAY OF RELEASE ISSUES.
Keep solicit talk to Comics OT only.
We haven't barred discussion of solicits through this whole event, so why would we start now? If you're gonna be that precious about this stuff, then read your books before you post.
On that note, here's a page from POX 6, unlettered as not to spoil.
Wow, that's... something to say that and just post those pages. Kind of a dick move, man.
The poll is clear, look up. Day of release issues only are fine. That is the rule of this thread.
Edit your post, remove those pages, stop talking about solicits.
Me six months ago: cool I'm saving so much money working from home
Me now: I NEED ALL THESE NEW COMICS
Had a VERY similar experience going through all my subscriptions - altering some to be a little frugal in my monthly payments.
That went right out the window.
When POX 6 drops and I'm going to need some long article explaining the X3 portion from start to finish. I struggled with understanding it with almost every issue. Like, who are those people? What is Nimbus? An in depth look at the levels of societies in the earlier and recent issues? It's all woosh going over my head. Mostly because I haven't been an avid reader and I didn't wrap my head around something as widely understood as a "worldmind" is, conceptually.
Please no. I really hope it more out of continuity stuff. There are better options for Uncanny. Like literally anyone else in Marvel's stable. I'd even take another Guggenheim book over Claremont at this point.
For those who follow the rules in the OP, no open spoilers for anything that hasn't been published in a comic book issue.
I suggest using the ignore list to weed out posters who aren't going to follow that rule and hopefully in time we'll have a clean discussion going and no one will have to worry about it.
Vita Ayala and Leah Williams were both at CC but their Wave 2 books weren't announced yet. I'm sort of expecting a Zdarsky book too given his twitter game. Hickman also has a second ongoing title (I'm guessing "Uncanny X-Men" will be that).
Based on White's previous sales comments I'm presuming Wolvie will be the only solo X-title though. Not sure if we could see anything else viable, maybe another Magneto book but that'd be pushing it.

The OP itself doesn't follow that rule. Beyond the solicit info and interviews it literally has prepublication preview art in it.
I think you're misinterpreting the OP, it says open spoilers day of release but there's nothing excluding other official preview material. Just no unofficial leaks or spoilers before publication is probably closer to the spirit of the OP and is honestly how the thread has gone.
alright, i think that's fine
TaleSpun i still think that unreleased page is probably too much but it's your call. let's just try to be considerate to people who don't follow this stuff
That's official preview pages. It's no different from what's in the OP.
If Marvel, their partners or their talent puts it out, it's probably acceptable.
I was looking at reading Hickman's Marvel Saga (according to the detailed reading pic) but around "The Incursions", what's up with issue 34.1 and 34.2? https://marvel.fandom.com/wiki/Avengers_Vol_5_34.1
I've never heard of a "point one" issue. Do those go with "The Incursions" story or the following "Time Runs Out" story line?

They showed it to the audience during the panel yesterday and they've been great about not spoiling HOX/POX themselves, so I'm not worried. But yeah, fair enough.
Where can I find this detailed reading pic for reading Hickman's work?
HOX/POX is the realist of comics, so at least there is symmetry.
I don't remember when Marvel started doing .1 issues, but they were considered jumping on points for new readers. They are kind of tangentially related to the ongoing story, but not super-important so you can skip it and not miss out.
It's in the OP, just above all the preview pages.
Question for those who have been reading this: should I read the issues in the order of release or would it be better to first read either Powers or House and then the other mini?
Finally read the issue. Loved Xavier's speech in the beginning.
But more than anything, I loved watching mutants just relax and enjoy themselves for once. Before the inevitable shit goes wrong, but it's still nice. And Cyclops as Commander. Can't wait to see that in action.

Thx! That makes sense why they're not in the pic too (there's probably enough content in his Marvel Saga that you don't need .1s).
Though if one wanted to include them, before Time Runs Out seems where they'd be perhaps, since they're for new readers, yeah?
It's as simple as #34 -> #34.1 -> #34.2 -> #35 so before Time Runs Out is perfect.
Yeah, I was wondering how Wolverine was the only one who got confirmed into not one, but TWO team books. Of course a third book with him is needed, money is money after all... well, maybe it will be better *sigh*
Why not a solo Cyclops book for a change? : P
At least now they have an excuse for Wolverine being in multiple places at once. :P
X-Men doesn't have a set roster, so Wolverine is only a regular in X-Force and his solo book.
Oh, my bad, I just assumed he is a core member in the book based on the #1 cover.
Who is Ben Percy? Should I look forward to this?
Cool that Adam is coming back to a wolverine book after such a long time
He wrote the "Rebirth" runs of Green Arrow and Teen Titans. I haven't read his Titans, but the trades I read from his Green Arrow run were excellent.

The dude who normally puts spoilers on the X-Men subreddit on Mondays is late today but he gave a hint:
Context:
Yes! I've been working on them but am about to board a plane. For now...go read the last few pages of Powers of X #1...all the answers are right there...hidden in plain sight all along
Context:
The last few issues of Powers of X #1 are X3: X-Men Year One Thousand. Nimrod and The Librarian are talking about the extinction of humans and it shows the two humans in the zoo. And Nimord and the Librarian talk about the collective consciousness of mutantdom.

It's too late to complain about it now, but yet another possible/incorrect future-- The Hulk, Mr. Immortal, and Franklin Richards are supposed to be only "humans" left alive. But I heard the latter will be mentioned in PoX #6, though?
