Jason Aaron is leaving Wolverine and the X-Men in early 2014 but the series will be relaunched with a new creative team. Aaron is now writing Amazing X-Men – the search for Nightcrawler.
Aaron’s run with the staff and student of the Jean Grey School will be remember for quirky strange tales filled with action, teen angst, humor and a few tears.
After Bamfs, a Brood infested Kitty Pryde, Frankenstein’s Murder Circus, a field trip in the Savage Land and the Hellfire Club made of psycho brats, Aaron reveals the stories he didn’t get to tell to Comic Book Resources.
“There were a few I didn’t get to, yeah. There was a big Mojo story I wanted to do. And a much smaller story that set up a Night School class at the JGS. But it’s always better to leave a book when you still have stories to tell than to wait until you’ve completely run out. I had initially hoped to write both “Amazing X-Men” and “WatXM” at the same time, but it just wasn’t gonna be feasible given the rest of my workload. I hated to walk away from those kids. I really did. But I couldn’t be happier about who’s taking over. I would gladly trust Jason Latour to keep an eye on my actual physical children, let alone my made-up ones.”
When Jason Latour takes over the book will focus on Summer semester at the Jean Grey School.
