That '90s Comic

AHEAD OF THE release of X-Men '97, Disney+'s continuation of X-Men: The Animated Series, Marvel Comics are publishing a special comic book spin-off written by Steve Foxe and drawn by Salva Espín. They previously teamed up on 2022's X-Men '92: House Of XCII, which was based on the classic '90s show.

"I would be on a drastically different life path if not for X-Men: The Animated Series, which, combined with the blitz of Toy Biz action figures in the early '90s, made me a mutie lover for life. So I was beyond thrilled when Beau DeMayo asked for Salva and I to reunite on X-Men '97," says Foxe, referring to the new television show's executive producer. "Beau had read X-Men '92: House Of XCII and thought we'd be a natural fit."
