X-Men Divide and Reform into Two Teams in "Regenesis" come October!

After the events of the X-Men storyline "Schism" conclude and Uncanny X-Men ends with issue #544 on September, a (predictable) reboot will ensue and we will see the birth of two new X-Men comic series come October - namely Wolverine and the X-Men #1 and Uncanny X-Men #1!

Obviously, the split after schism is very real, with Wolverine will be leading his own team of merry mutants (with the new book taking its name after the 2008 animated series "Wolverine and the X-Men"), while Scott Summers/ Cyclops builds his own group in the relaunched "Uncanny X-Men" series. It's not known who's going to who's roster thus far, but the poster above seems to hint (or mislead) us at who will be at Wolverine's team or Cyclops' team. Safe bet is by the time Schism ends, we'll know what the full rosters of both will be.

Overall, it's very reminiscent of the Avengers split after Civil War (with New Avengers and Mighty Avengers), and we'll see a rivalry form between the two teams I bet. For more insight and info on the story, visit the source pots at Marvel.com or Newsarama!

Uncanny X-Men ends in October...

Looks like Marvel's following DC's lead (again) by ending one of their signature books and hinting at the possibility of a reboot...

As posted in Newsarama and Marvel.com, this October will see the end of Uncanny X-men, with the long running series capping off when issue #544 hits comic stores and retailers that month. Obviously it has something to do with the fallout of Schism, the new X-event and storyline that ends around that time and acts as the X-men's version of Civil War, with Cyclops and Wolverine standing on divided fronts and duking it out. The cover also shows a disappointed Cyclops walking off the distance, with a big X on the background showing the original 5 members of the X-men (including Cyke himself) in it. No other info is attached in the teaser other than stating that it's "The Final Issue". For more info on the story, visit Newsarama and Marvel.com.

Oh yeah, I smell reboot again, and numbering no longer seems to be an important factor in comics. Gone are days...

X-Men Schism Teaser: United No More

Via Newsarama, Marvel has released a new teaser poster for their upcoming X-Men storyline "Schism".

No surprise here. With all the X-events and drama building up from behind the scenes, this was bound to happen eventually. Cyclops and Wolverine will duke it out... And nothing will be the same again. Look forward to the event this July!
