Iceman is getting his own solo comic book Marvel revealed via Twitter with a cover showing the X-Man’s 50 year history.

Iceman #1 was announced for Spring 2017 with the previously teased ResurrXion, which appears to be the follow-up event to Inhumans vs. X-Men.

This is the first new title announced with the mysterious ResurrXion banner.

This is the first ongoing title to star original X-Man Bobby Drake.

Young Bobby from the past was “outed” by psychic Jean Grey. Bobby later confronted his older adult self about his lifetime in the closet. Iceman is now the most prominent LGBT Marvel character.
