If you’ve been reading X-Men comics since the beginning, it might all be what some might call a “duck-blur.” But forget all that, because Kamala Khan, aka Ms. Marvel, is about to take a ride through X-Men history, and might solve a mystery in the process. X-tales! Ooo woo-hoo!
Or, incongruous ledes aside, Marvel has announced a series of one-shots starting with Giant-Size X-Men #1 which will send Ms. Marvel to the site of major X-events to discover long-buried secrets that will change everything. Will they be tales of daring, do bad and good luck tales? Maybe. Maybe.
Written by Collin Kelly and Jackson Lanzing, with art by Adam Kubert, the five issues will also feature a Revelations Back-Up story by X-Men creators that will, per PR from Marvel, “uncover hidden moments that will alter the X-Men’s future.”
“No hype: every issue of GIANT-SIZE is here to blow your mind and break your heart,” Lanzing and Kelly said. “Mutantkind is the grandest, most sprawling canvas in the Marvel canon—moreover, it’s the one the Hivemind’s been arguing and geeking out about since we were teenagers at our local comic shop. Now, alongside the absolute legend Adam Kubert and three more of the best artists in the industry, we’re posed to completely wreck and reassemble the history of the X – with our favorite hero Kamala Khan front and center. It’s an honor, a joy, and a huge responsibility. Free Comic Book Day is just a taste. What comes next will be marvelous.”
On that, you will get the taste on May 3 in the Free Comic Book Day 2025: Fantastic Four/Giant-Size X-Men #1. And then the event will kick off on May 28 with Giant-Size X-Men #1. This will be followed by two issues in June heading to “The Dark Phoenix Saga” and “Age of Apocalypse,” and then “House of M” in July before ending with Giant-Size X-Men #1 the same month.
Check out the checklist below, followed by Kubert’s cover and some unlettered interior art.
