As repeatedly teased over the past few months, Cyclops will be getting his own solo title in the wake of the X-Men’s upcoming Age of Revelation event. And there are a bunch of other (scant) er, revelations about the X-Men line in 2026, which is being labeled “Shadows of Tomorrow.”
While more info will be offered up at Marvel’s X-Men panel at New York Comic Con next month, we do have five different blurry teaser images provided by the publisher to whet our appetites. We know the Age of Revelation event, which is set 10 years in the future of the Marvel Universe, will end in December. Afterwards, while some currently running titles won’t continue, we do know of three that will, all in January: Wolverine, X-Men, and The Uncanny X-Men. They’ll pick up on their numbering where they left off in September, pre-Age of Revelation.
But as far as “new” titles, we’ve got two coming up in February: Wade Wilson: Deadpool, and Cyclops. For the latter, based on the tagline “find someone else to laugh at,” it seems likely we’ve got a more serious Deadpool than usual. As for Cyclops, “follow the leader” isn’t too explanatory, though could refer to Cyclops leading the X-Men, or that he’s literally trying to track down Hulk villain The Leader. Or both!
We also don’t know any creative teams, though it seems likely that the continuing titles will retain their lead writers: Saladin Ahmed on Wolverine, Jed MacKay on X-Men, and Gail Simone on The Uncanny X-Men. We’ll have more on this as it develops.
