The birth of the DC Young Animals line, more DC Comics Rebirth number ones and the first big crossover of DC Rebirth in the Batman family of books.

Doom Patrol #1 by Gerard Way and Nick Derington hailed as “a blenderized reimagining of the ultimate series of the strange, Doom Patrol combines elements from the classic runs, new directions and things that could not be.”
“Our entry point is Casey Brinke, a young EMT on the graveyard shift to abstract enlightenment, with a past so odd that she’s not entirely sure what is real and what is not. Along with her partner, Sam Reynolds, the pair blaze a path though the city with its denizens, finding the only that exists at 3am is the chaos of the brain. When the pair answer a hit-and-run call, they find themselves face to face with a familiar figure: Cliff Steele, aka Robotman.

Magneto is about to do it again…lighting a fuse that will ignite huge new drama for the X-Men.
Tensions are high between Inhumans and mutants. The Terrigen Mists creating new Inhumans are killing mutants. Magneto is leading a pro-active squad of Uncanny X-Men in the All-New, All-Different Marvel Now. Storm’s Extraordinary X-Men team are trying to rescue as many mutants as they can. Beast is working with Medusa in Uncanny Inhumans. Cyclops is believed to be dead after an attack on the Inhumans.
The cold war between the rival races flares up in midst of Civil War II. Iron Man and Captain Marvel are at odds over the emergence of Ulysses, a new Inhuman with the power to predict the future. A classic hero is dead and an Avenger is clinging to life after the Ultimates use of the Inhuman’s power backfired in a tragic way.
In Civil War II: X-Men #1 by Cullen Bunn, the mutant teams learn of Ulysses. The Master of Magnetism sees this powerful new man as a new threat tipping the scales in favor of Inhumans.
