Superstar writer Jonathan Hickman appeared for a video interview at the Marvel booth at San Diego Comic-Con to talk about his upcoming X-Men relaunch taking place in House of X and Powers of X Through the magic of typing really fast, we've transcribed what Hickman had to say, first on the kind of Marvel stories[...]

We're just one week away from superstar writer Jonathan Hickman's line-wide X-Men relaunch, kicking off with House of X with artist Pepe Larraz and Powers of X with R.B Silva, and leading into a brand new era of X-Men with Hickman writing a core ongoing book and, presumably, another fifteen or so monthly X-titles, as[...]

Things are always darkest before the Dawn of X, so as we await the big news at San Diego Comic-Con for the future of the X-Men books after the Hickboot, Marvel has revealed the cover and description for Powers of X #6, the finale of the series by Jonathan Hickman and R.B Silva which promises[...]

Nevertheless, the upcoming X-Men line-wide relaunch by Jonathan Hickman and artists Pepe Larraz and R.B Silva is set to shake those foundations one more time, in a way, according to Marvel Chief Creative Officer Joe Quesada, not seen since Grant Morrison shook the Marvel Universe to its foundations during his New X-Men run. @PepeLarraz's art is[...]

We all know that Jonathan Hickman's X-Men relaunch is set to be another "Seminal Moment" in X-Men history… but could it actually be a "Semenal Moment?" As the world awaits the relaunch that will shake the X-Men to their foundations and leave nothing ever the same again, blah blah blah, yadda yadda yadda, you get[...]

So, we get it, plants everywhere, including Krakoa, the living island who was responsible for the formation of the second team of X-Men back in the seventies. #gallery-2 { margin: auto; } #gallery-2 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top: 10px; text-align: center; width: 33%; } #gallery-2 img { border: 2px solid #cfcfcf; } #gallery-2 .gallery-caption { margin-left: 0; } /* see gallery_shortcode() in wp-includes/media.php */ So, basically, plants. #gallery-3 { margin: auto; } #gallery-3 .gallery-item { float: left; margin-top:[...]

In just one month, superstar writer Jonathan Hickman will team with artists Pepe Larraz and R.B Silva to relaunch the X-Men But it seems that Hickman views the job as a massive undertaking, as he took to Twitter Monday to refer to X-Men continuity as "some nonsense." "There are no rules here," Hickman said of the[...]

X-Men: The Seminal Moments, the documentary web series Marvel has been posting on YouTube in advance of Jonathan Hickman's line-wide X-Men relaunch, has reached its final chapter And rather than looking back at the titular seminal moments of the past, this one looks to the future: to the upcoming release of House of X and[...]

As Jonathan Hickman's relaunch of the X-Men draws ever closer, Marvel has revealed six new character design sheets by artist R.B Silva for new mutants debuting in July's Powers of X #1 We've seen some of these characters in preview art, but this redacted art makes clear that these are all new characters making their[...]

Last week, we got to see some of the artwork for Jonathan Hickman's upcoming X-Men relaunch, from Powers of X by R.B Silva and House of X by Pepe Larraz Hickman gave another interview Wednesday to Comic Book Resources, and that came along with some new pages for the upcoming mini-series that will kick off[...]

In July, for better or worse, Jonathan Hickman's House of X (art by Pepe Larraz) and Powers of X (art by R.B Silva) will kick off a brand new era of X-Men, as the entire X-line is canceled, to be followed up by a new line of books, with Hickman writing the flagship title[...]

X, ending in June, and Brisson launched a new X-Force series, ending, alongside this latest incarnation of Uncanny X-Men, in July. After that, Jonathan Hickman will be relaunching the line, starting with a 12-issue weekly run consisting of two titles, House of X and Powers of X Hickman will write the "flagship" X-Men title after that,[...]

Earlier today, we learned the not-so-shocking news that Jonathan Hickman's upcoming House of X and Powers of X mini-series would lead into a full line-wide relaunch of the X-Men, with Hickman writing the flagship X-Men title after that As to why it was "not-so-shocking," well, first of all we already noticed that it looked like[...]

Earlier today, we learned that Jonathan Hickman's House of X and Powers of X, two bi-weekly series starting in August and running on alternating weeks for 6 issues each will lead into a line-wide relaunch of the X-Men, with Hickman himself writing the flagship title That means that the rest of the X-line will end[...]

We've only just learned the big news that Jonathan Hickman will relaunch Marvel's X-Men line, with his dual X-Men series, House of X and Powers of X, leading into a "new era" of X-Men comics, with Hickman writing the core flagship X-title starting this Fall But that wasn't the only big news Hickman dropped in[...]

The theme of the week was X-Romances, and one of the questions involved what Jonathan Hickman will deliver on that subject when his House of X and Powers of X relaunch the X-Men Universe this Summer… AiPT!: Finally, I know there's so much you can't say about the approaching Jonathan Hickman era of the X-Men, but[...]

The end result is blunt in its brutality, but we have some answers now. Jonathan Hickman is one of those writers that really knows how to weave a narrative, as evidenced by the fact that I've been absorbed by this book for six years now The characters are so damned real, so very damaged, and so[...]

For many fans of superstar writer Jonathan Hickman, Hickman's upcoming House of X and Powers of X are the answer to long-awaited hopes that Hickman would take on a major X-Men project at Marvel But for fans of Hickman and Tomm Coker's Black Monday murders, the outlook is a bit poorer. Here's what the Image Comics'[...]

In July, superstar writer Jonathan Hickman will take the X-Men to a bold new era where nothing will be the same again and the X-universe will be rocked to its foundations and all of that jazz But July is three months away, which is like 8 years in terms of the 24-hour comics news cycle[...]

Jonathan Hickman is returning to Marvel to write two X-Men comics, House of X and Powers of X, starting in July just as the current X-over, Age of X-Man, ends We also heard more about Absolute Carnage, which was already revealed at the retailer breakfast And the whole panel kicked off with War of the Realms,[...]

Bleeding Cool first teased, then confirmed that Jonathan Hickman would be coming back to Marvel for a project in July With the verbiage 'when two aggressive species share the same environment, evolution demands adaptation or dominance.' We told you two days ago, it's not X-Men Or rather, as we said, it's not called X-Men[...]

Bleeding Cool was first to tell you that Jonathan Hickman was returning to Marvel Comics, and that whatever he was doing would begin in July. And that whatever he was doing, would be announced at Marvel: The Next Big Thing panel on Saturday March 23rd at Chicago's C2E2. There has been much speculation as to what this[...]

His encounter with another Doctor Doom is a good sequence too. The Council of Reeds idea was a brilliant one from Jonathan Hickman and Dale Eaglesham's Fantastic Four run I'm glad to see this concept brought back It was interesting and unnerving It showed how close Reed Richards's difficulty connecting with others mixed with his genius intellect[...]

Still feeling withdrawals from Marvel's recent graphic novel sale, cut down before its prime by a direct market terrified of progress? Well, we're not likely to see deals that good again (until Marvel's quarterly profits need a last minute booster), but that doesn't mean there aren't some good bargains left to be had on the[...]

[rwp-review-recap id="0"] For the final installment of Bleeding Cool's Countdown to Avengers: Infinity War, we are going to be looking at the story which the film seems to be taking most of its inspiration: Infinity by Jonathan Hickman, Jim Cheung, Jerome Opena, and Dustin Weaver. Infinity #1 cover by Adam Kubert and Laura Martin Not only was this[...]

In what may go down as one of the all-time-great comic book bromances, Jonathan Hickman and Robert Kirkman are teaming up to executive produce television shows at Amazon based on two comics co-created by Hickman: East of West and Transhuman. Respective series artists and co-creators Nick Dragotta and J.M Ringuet will also executive produce those projects, according[...]

The same week of the movie itself, we'll be taking a look at Jonathan Hickman's Infinity, from where much of Avengers: Infinity War will be mining its plot points. In the end, do I recommend Infinity Gauntlet? Hell yeah It's a classic for a reason It's weird, it's ephemeral, it's fun, and it's gorgeous It's one[...]

It looks like Jonathan Hickman may have signed his next contract with Marvel Comics — but we understand that previously he was all ready to go at DC Comics. Photo by Kendall Whitehouse The switch came down to a number of things. C.B Cebulski as Marvel's new Editor-in-Chief was a major reason for Hickman to change his mind about[...]

Jonathan Hickman's New Avengers also told a T'Challa-focused tale and was actually another really good series. New Avengers #1 cover by Jock One thing about Avengers titles over the past decade or so is that Brian Michael Bendis never seemed particularly interested in the character of T'Challa, only really bringing him in to AvX due to his[...]
