We have made minor adjustments to how the search bar works on ResetEra. You can read about the changes here.
That's discussed in a later chart. The "unchecked growth and proliferation of cells" discussed above refers exclusively to the LIM proteins, which are hinted to have something to do with the human drugs Xavier/Cypher developed via Krakoa 2.1
Marvel is never going to mention age for their characters going forward, but Cyclops is supposed to be in his late 20s. Rogue would be younger than that.
She's almost certainly closer to 20 than 30.
Post secret wars, Marvel established it's only been about 12 years since Captain America came out of the ice in Avengers #4 ( Published March 1964). Uncanny Xmen #1 was only a few months earlier in September of 63.
Rogue made her debut quite a bit later in Avengers Annual #10 in 1981, and she was still in her teens around then, IIRC. No way for her to be 30 in the current timeline.
guess you guys are right
i still think mags is a better romantic partner for her
Why would they?
Scott made a deal to relocate them to Eastern Europe during Rosenbergs run.
This is a very wrong opinion. I hate Gambit a lot but I would rather have be involved with Remy than Mags. Mags/ Rogue is a bullshit pair and Carey's run was just icky.
This is the arc:
Uncanny X-Force (2013 - 2014)
Featuring really beautiful art by Adrian Alphona and the best looking Spiral I've seen in quite a while.
Also, I highly recommend that you read Rick Remender's Uncanny X-Force before this one as a lot of plot points from that one lead into this series.
Psylocke's costume redesign in that series was brilliant. Shame they didn't stick with it.This is the arc:

so i know tons of people have asked, but i'm going to ask again lol
what are some good "recent" runs to check out that are available in Unilimited? I just finished Red and am now reading Mr. & Mrs. X but I've been out of the loop for a long time and wouldn't mind checking out some great stuff (ie: i figure i should avoid yellow & blue based on this thread)

Just read HoX yesterday... what an amazing start imho and it felt really fresh, I hope it continues to be like that through the 12 issues series.
I've been out the X-Men loop a long time so this might not qualify as recent anymore, but def Rick Remender's Uncanny X-Force. The Dark Angel Saga in particular is just one of the best comics I've read this decade.
It would be so absurdly stupid of them to think given prior history that they have nothing to fear. I just can't accept their attitude given their previous interactions with powerful and malevolent groups of humans. A more intelligent group would NEVER underestimate an opponent as their arrogance suggests they're doing.
616 isn't the 616 we knew. The whole multiverse was rebuilt so they can really do what they want, no matter if the changes are small or big.
Since some brought up lowercase letters used in the speech bubbles earlier, I remembered that Hickman made this tweet:
I wonder if these "insane rewrites" included changing the letter case. Maybe the lowercase text is just meant to throw us off or at least hint at the fact that

This is the point I was making in the comics thread while referencing that tweet. I agree.
Just read house 1 and I'm pretty impressed. It feels like a nice mix of 90s x nostalgia and dread and all the grandiosity of Hickman's ff fun. I'm on board. I'm also wondering if Hickman went full Klingon and there's a mutant language dictionary floating around marvel hq the internet will decipher.

I agree, but they seem prepared for it with Magneto's element. I'm saying they don't have shit to fear from earth goverment unless they get crazy high tech based on supers, or symbotie mutant hunters or some shit, but lets be honest, with this portal tech and all that they seem to have upper hand.
lets hope they dont fuck up, but also dont prepare for the world to be flipped upside down for them
No, it's used a ton in the Avengers arc and it was solved years ago.
We've already seen a group within the issue predict and begin making preparations for Xavier's plan. If they don't try to stop it then they'll survive it.
On the surface humans within the Marvel universe seem inconsequential (see the government lackeys Magneto intimidates) compared to godlike mutants but the humans we're talking about here include the likes of Reed Richards and similarly hyper-intelligent individuals who IMHO wield the kind of intellect that could arguably be considered a power in its own right.
But we'll see how it goes.

So Jordan says during that video that House #1 shows the fruition of a plan Charles has been building toward for a long time and that Powers #1 will show how that plan was put together
Not all of it. Hickman tweeted out a graphic weeks ago that people then used to figure out the names of the Dawn of X ongoings when Hickman tweeted them out using the alphabet. The translations were 100% correct, so that chart is mostly accurate so far.
You're thinking of Builder Code. This is Krakoan. Only mutants speak/read it, so far.
Oh really? I guess I haven't seen them side by side so I have no idea the difference. That's funny.
Any chance it could be related to the Builder code at all? I would personally love it if all three of these big Hickman runs connected through language.
While rereading it: I know it has been mentioned and discussed but that look that Xavier gives Jean and the "You're safe here. We all are." is a bit eyebrow raising.
It might be a red herring but it does feel a little like the pacification of a fellow powerful telepath, like a reinforcement of a command. But maybe that's too easy.

Great start to the rebranding of the X-Men. The X-Men have always been my favorite of all the Marvel stories and heroes. Magneto comes across as a absolute bad ass muthafucka in this. Can't wait to read more. Haven't been excited for a X-Men story arc in a long time.
Same of me. Was looking forward to the aftermath of Archangel becoming the true heir apparent of Apocalypse. One of my favorite moments in the Saga was when Archangel took a full on Phoenix Blast from Jean like it was cupcakes. Remender made him the proper beast of a character he should be.

He created another cipher/language for Black Monday Mutders as well.
Who knows. Presumably the language is part of Xavier's plan and we'll get some insight into its creation, but that's not a guarantee.
Franklin richards should make a pocket world for Mutants to go in and out of, House of M world connected to real one.
Soo (cover/HoX1)
As someone who never was into X-Men and only read on and off since the 90's, this is PRETTY good so far, and it just oozes Hickman.
Xavier's certainly looking a LOT like Hickman's Maker lol

Was this any good? I always saw these at my local shops but never pulled the trigger.
I realized the logo was familiar and now I know why
Quick OT question? How often do new comics come to comixology? Is it anything like Marvel Unlimoted where you wait 6 months before new issues to arrive? Been looking to get into digital for a while and this looks like a good option.This is the arc:
Uncanny X-Force (2013 - 2014)

Glad I'm pretty much done with Inferno. I've encountered Sinister in a few stories before, I think, but knowing the extent of what he's done here really helps paint a better picture of how, well, sinister the bastard is. Given that he'll play a role in House/Powers and how big this story is... I'm worried.
You mean just Comixology or Comixology Unlimited? If the former, everything releases there on the same day books release physically. Not sure about the latter, but it's not like Marvel Unlimited where they progressively add more volumes from a series. It's usually just the first few volumes for select series.
Time and date to the comics, if you buy them per issue. If you go with a subscription model it's about half a year later iirc).
A rare night where my wife & baby are a the in-laws.
Endgame tonight, Powers of X in the morning in peace and quiet. What luck
don't make me break out my Valiant Reading Order for yall

So for those paying attention to the timeline of things. Cyclops, Jean, Beast and Angel are all probably 26 or 27. Iceman is 25 or 26.
The ages of others depends on how long the original team was active.
I honestly think 10 years from X-men 1 is too low. But he's somewhat shackled by the Cap u frozen date.
Last time I tried to figure out the ages of the characters it went like this.
Xavier - around 50 years
Emma Frost - 40 years (she lies about her age)
Beast - 35 years
Cyclops, Jean, Warren and many more 30-33years
Iceman and Rogue - 28 years
Kitty and the New Mutants 20 to 25 years
Pixie, Surge, and the rest of the kids, around 16 to 18 years
Emma is actually around the same as as the O5. She was in her early 20s when Xavier tried to recruit her for the 2nd Team of X-Men.
Why does it feel like it's been two months since House #1 came out?
Here's a fun thing to reflect on while we wait for the next issue: Marvel will have rehired Hickman, given him more than a year to plan his X-Men relaunch, and he and his art team will have completed and released a 12-issue weekly event, all before Geoff Johns and Gary Frank manage to complete their Doomsday Clock maxi-series, which was supposed to set up a new baseline for the DC Universe, even though Doomsday Clock started in 2017.
Happy Tuesday, everyone!
