New York, NY— February 9, 2026 — SHADOWS OF TOMORROW, a new era of X-Men storytelling, is now officially underway with exciting new arcs of X-MEN, UNCANNY X-MEN and WOLVERINE, new ongoing launches like GENERATION X-23, INGLORIOUS X-FORCE, WADE WILSON: DEADPOOL, and X-MEN UNITED, and exciting limited series like CYCLOPS, MAGIK & COLOSSUS, MOONSTAR, ROGUE, and STORM: EARTH’S MIGHTIEST MUTANT. Today, fans can glimpse ahead at what comes next as the SHADOWS OF TOMORROW era comes to an end and the road to the next mutant milestone begins with the reveal of issues coming in May.
May promises to be a monumental month for the X-Line. Cyclops’ Alaskan X-Men team face their greatest challenge yet in the new “Danger Room” arc of Jed MacKay and Netho Diaz’s X-MEN. Over at Haven House, the New Mutants arrive and the Outliers disappear, a mystery that kicks off a new arc of Gail Simone and Luciano Vecchio’s UNCANNY X-MEN. Plus the moment fans have waited for since the launch of the From the Ashes era—the reveal of INMATE X—draws closer! And Graymatter Lane continues to be a hub of mutant drama and action in Eve L. Ewing and Tiago Palma’s X-MEN UNITED.
Outside of the flagship titles, Cable gets closer to finding the first mutant president’s assassin in INGLORIOUS X-FORCE, X-23 takes on the Facility singlehandedly in GENERATION X-23, the Merc with a Mouth has a showdown with Hammerhead in WADE WILSON: DEADPOOL, and Logan faces a brutal defeat with lasting physical repercussions in WOLVERINE.
Limited series continue as Rogue discovers the dark truth behind a lost Brotherhood of Evil Mutants mission in the finale of ROGUE, Cyclops braces for his final confrontation with the new Reavers in CYCLOPS #4, Dani Moonstar must search the past in order to save every soul on Earth in MOONSTAR #3, and the Rasputin siblings must put aside their differences to bring down the ancient witch Baba Yaga in MAGIK & COLOSSUS #4. And revealed in this week’s X-Men Monday column at AIPT, FURAHA, the daughter of Storm, arrives in STORM: EARTH’S MIGHTIEST MUTANT #4! Writer Murewa Ayodele reveals more about this mysterious future X-Kid, following her buzzworthy debut in last year’s X-Men: Hellfire Vigil one-shot where she appeared to Storm in a vision.
“I love Furaha so much. Every fan art of hers I see warms my heart,” Ayodele told AIPT. “It brought me great pleasure to finally get to write Storm and Furaha interacting together on the page. I find their exchanges extremely wholesome.”
X-MEN OF APOCALYSPE OMEGA #1, the final issue of Jeph Loeb and Simone Di Meo’s blockbuster Age of Apocalypse anniversary series, also hits stands in May.
