Brian Michael Bendis put Dazzler through hell and back in Uncanny X-Men. Alison Blaire was recruited to be an Agent of S.H.I.E.L.D., then became a victim of Mystique.

Marvel announced Rosario Dawson (Sin City: A Dame To Kill For, Cesar Chavez) is joining the cast of Marvel’s Daredevil, an all-new 13-episode series premiering on Netflix in 2015.
John Romita, Jr is taking on the Man of Steel. The Marvel mainstay joins Geoff Johns as the new creative team on Superman #32.
What is like for the award winning artist to draw DC comics most powerful hero?

Young Avengers won a GLAAD Media Award earlier this year. The Astonishing X-Men issue featuring Northstar’s wedding was a big seller. Those are the most high-profile gay heroes of the Marvel heroes.
Northstar (Jean-Paul Baubier) married Kyle Jinadu 2 years ago. After Astonishing X-Men came to an end, Northstar returned to the Jean Grey School in Amazing X-Men to join the Quest for Nightcrawler.

Uncanny X-Men #22 is packed with big moments as Brian Michael Bendis brings the X-Men vs. S.H.I.E.L.D. war to a head.
Beast and Cyclops learn the mastermind behind the Sentinels of S.H.I.E.L.D. attacking mutants. Magneto returns to the school with news about the fate of a lost X-Man and one of Mystique’s most twisted schemes.
It’s an extremely satisfying conclusion to many plot threads since the birth of Cyclops’s revolution team before what might be the biggest X-Men stories of the year: The Last Will and Testament of Charles Xavier. Continue reading UNCANNY X-MEN PROFESSOR X’s LAST WILL Preview
