Marvel aren't continuing the X-Men anthologies beyond Trials of X volume 12.

I'm totally out of the loop in the comics world nowdays, but I stumbled across this artwork for the upcoming Justice League vs Godzilla vs Kong... and it looks terrific!

I do love these random comic crossovers :lol:

Just signed up to DC Universe subscription to read some DC stuff, not read much DC outside of Batman, what are the recommend things to read?

I don't know what's on there but here are some DC recs:

Supergirl Woman of Tomorrow by Tom King
Human Target by Tom King
Mister Miracle by Tom King
All Star Superman by Grant Morrison
Doom Patrol by Grant Morrison
Gotham Central by Ed Brubaker and Greg Rucka
52 by everyone
The Black Mirror by Scott Snyder
Nightwing by Tom Taylor

I’ll check them out, currently reading Superman Birthright which has been good so far

The current run of World's Finest is also by Mark Waid, and is very good too. A bit more light than Birthright too.

Mark Waid has written a lot for DC over the years, but check out JLA: Tower of Babel by him as well.

I'll add them to the list, I'll have to go through Geoff John's GL run as well as I remember really enjoying that

Hellfire Gala 2023- Absolutely brutal.

Probably the most Xavier thing Xavier has ever done.

Nimrod and Orchis murdered loads of people at the Hellfire Gala. They announced that all mutants had to leave Earth or they would start killing random human civillians. 1 human for the first mutant found on Earth, 100 for the second mutant on Earth and so on. Xavier telepathically compelled every mutant to flee to Mars because of course he did. He's lucky Magneto's dead.

Damn

Magneto was right!

Umm....he didn't send them to Mars.

Mori not paying attention to the detail again

He tried to. Some of them are probably in Mother Righteous' snowglobe.

X-Men 25- Ninja Kitty is hardcore.

Who are actually the main writers at Marvel just now. Hickman aside there doesn't seem to be anyone interesting last time I looked.

The main "architects" at the minute are below though I think Gillen only has one book, important though it is. People seem to like Jed McKay but he's never clicked with me.

Jonathan Hickman
Kieron Gillen
Al Ewing
Gerry Duggan

Dan Slott is still trying to work his way back into Spider-Man. He's doing a lot of side Spider-Man books I've not read at all.

Al Ewing is pretty good.
