When a fan-favorite writer exits a popular book fans can get nervous. Jason Latour is taking over Wolverine and the X-Men from Jason Aaron who started the strange saga of Logan and the kids of the Jean Grey School.

The change comes after a major change in Wolverine – he’s lost his healing factor. Latour tells Comic Book Resources how Logan’s new status quo will impact the book:

“Up to now it’s all began and ended with Logan. It’s his strength this school is built on the back of. His reputation for being the unkillable badass has been their insurance policy. Continue reading WOLVERINE AND THE X-MEN Grading the Teachers

Amazing X-Men #2 Review

Sometimes being an X-Man is Hell…literally!

Nightcrawler’s peace in Heaven turns into a nightmare when his father sends demon pirates to steal souls. Yes, Jason Aaron is daring to use one of the worst X-villains (but was awesome in X-Men: First Class) in a tale of war in the afterlife.

This week Amazing X-Men #2 continues the otherworldly adventures on two fronts. The writer’s seeds sewn in Wolverine and the X-Men (those darn bamfs!) pay off in a big way sending Logan and Northstar to Heaven and Storm, Iceman and Firestar to Hell. Continue reading Amazing X-Men #2 Review

THE WOLVERINE Classic Costume in Sequel?

The Wolverine is now out on Blu-Ray and dvd. Director James Mangold is meeting with Hugh Jackman about a possible sequel.

The X-Man’s classic comic book uniform hasn’t made it to the big screen yet could the yellow and blue or yellow and brown appear in a future movie?

“A lot of fans keep asking about when he’s going to wear his uniform. It’s a struggle for us in relation to question, because Logan’s personality as developed onscreen and in comics is one in which he hates publicity. The filmmakers, even on X-Men, have struggled with an outfit. Finding the rationale for a uniform when the character disdains self promotion, why he would put on some outfit that promotes himself as some kind of hero?
