While the X-Men's mission forces them to work outside the law, certain teams have found ways to fight for mutant rights within the system as officially sanctioned strike forces.
In the upcoming "From the Ashes" era, that tradition continues in a new volume of X-Factor from Eisner-winning writer Mark Russell (Fantastic Four: Life Story) and acclaimed X-Men artist Bob Quinn (Captain America).
Formed by the government in response to a post-Krakoa outbreak of mutant paramilitary, ops squads, and mercenary teams, X-Factor will be co-led by Angel and Havok and include recruits like Pyro, Frenzy, Feral, and more.
Part special agents for missions that require an arsenal of superpowers and part celebrity propaganda machine, X-Factor will wage war against emerging factions like the Mutant Underground and X-Term. Whether they believe in their actions or are just doing it for a check, the members of X-Factor are no fools when it comes to shady politics.

Sixty years. That’s all it has been since Spider-Man first swung into the public’s consciousness when he appeared in the 15th ( and final) issue of Marvel’s Amazing Fantasy comic. Although they had no way of realizing it at the time, Stan Lee and Steve Ditko’s creation would quickly become a phenomenon…and arguably the most beloved superhero ever made. The reasons for Ol’ Webhead’s enduring popularity have been analyzed to death over the past six decades, with the general consensus being that Peter Parker/Spider-Man resonates because despite his incredible abilities he has ordinary human problems that readers can relate to.
Plus his suit design is amazing. (And spectacular for that matter…)
As you read this, last year’s release of Spider-Man: No Way Home is continuing to break blockbuster records, illustrating how much – spoiler alert – audiences loved seeing Tobey Maguire, Andrew Garfield,...

Ever since Monica Rambeau debuted as a little girl in the 1995-set “Captain Marvel,” fans have been expecting to see her show up at some point with super powers. After all, in the comics Monica Rambeau is the civilian identity of the superhero known as Spectrum.
Spectrum is of course only the latest name Monica has used. She was previously known as Phaser, and before that Photon, and originally as the second Captain Marvel (a title she held long before Carol Danvers). But since 2010 she’s been known as Spectrum, and whichever name she uses, her powers include super speed and the ability to convert her own body into energy and back again — thus, the alias “Spectrum.”
Alas, though an adult Monica (played by Teyonah Parris) turns out to be one of the main characters of the Disney+ series “WandaVision,” so far she doesn’t appear to be anything other than a normal human — albeit,...
