On today’s episode, we’re discussing some of the highlights from Marvel’s August 2025 solicits, including Thor, Black Cat, and more.
X-Men
The X-Men are a superhero team created in 1963 by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby. Stretching over dozens of comic book titles, X-Men has become one of Marvel’s most popular franchises. On one side, Professor Xavier and his school, filled with mutants who try to protect a world that hates and fears them. On the other side? Magneto and his Brotherhood of Evil Mutants, who believe mutants need to destroy humans to survive.
…Or at least that’s how it all started. Since then, hundreds of characters have been introduced, loyalties have been changed and tested, and baseball games have been played. Here you can read reviews of X-Men comics, and listen to interviews with writers, artists, editors, and fans.
