X-Men: From the Ashes is a 2024 relaunch of the X-Men line of comic books published by Marvel Comics that follows the end of the "Krakoan Age" storyline.
Publication history[edit]
The initiative was announced by Marvel Comics' Editor-in-Chief C.B. Cebulski and VP, Executive Editor Tom Brevoort as part of the "Future of Marvel Comics' X-Men and Digital Comics" panel at South by Southwest (SXSW) 2024 on March 14, 2024.[1][2] Brevoort replaced Jordan White as Group Editor of the X-Men,[3] commenting that "because the characters were going to be of greater importance to Studios in the years to come, it made sense to have a more senior editorial presence overseeing the book".[4] The relaunch intends to tell the story of mutantkind in a new status quo established following the end of the Krakoan Age's last phase Fall of X.[5][6] The editorial direction they were given was to move away from "wrapping [the] Krakoa era".[4] Brevoort highlighted that the relaunch name was derived from the opening text in Giant-Size X-Men #1 (1975) and that it was Gail Simone who "who threw out the phrase 'From the Ashes' amongst a bunch of other suggestions".[7]
As part of the initial announcement, details around the first three titles – X-Men (vol. 7) written by Jed MacKay with art by Ryan Stegman, Uncanny X-Men (vol. 6) written by Simone with art by David Marquez, and Exceptional X-Men written by Eve L. Ewing with art by Carmen Carnero – were revealed. X-Men is scheduled for release in July 2024 with Uncanny X-Men following in August 2024 and Exceptional X-Men in September 2024.[1][2] Additional ongoing titles were later confirmed: NYX (vol. 2), Phoenix, Storm (vol. 5), Wolverine (vol. 8), X-Factor (vol. 5), and X-Force (vol. 7).[2][8]
The final Fall of X issue, X-Men (vol. 6) #35 (legacy Uncanny X-Men #700), was published in June 2024;[9] the end of the issue previews the From The Ashes relaunch with Xavier telepathically "witnessing mutants trying to re-integrate into human society and facing the same fear and hatred they always have".[10] Marvel then dropped X-Men: From the Ashes Infinity Comic, written by Alex Paknadel with art by Diogenes Neve, on June 5; the series picks up from X-Men (vol. 6) #35 and leads into X-Men (vol. 7) #1.[11][12]
