Ahead of retailers having to lock in their orders this Monday for Exceptional X-Men #1 from Eve Ewing and Carmen Carnero, the third of the three flagship X-Men titles from the current “From the Ashes” relaunch, Marvel is revealing all of the covers for the first issue of the series, while also explaining why this book is so “exceptional.”
The other two “flagship” X-Men titles have their own niches, with Gail Simone and David Marquez’s Uncanny X-Men being closer to a traditional superhero series (protecting a world that hates and fears them), and Jed MacKay and Ryan Stegman’s X-Men being about proactively taking down major threats with a powerful strikeforce, so the niche for Exceptional X-Men is that it will spotlight the teaching side of the X-Men, as Kitty Pryde and Emma Frost will be forced to work together to teach three new young mutants to become superheroes. Marvel recently released more information about the three new mutants (Axo, Bronze and Melee), but now Marvel is sharing what Ewing thinks makes the book so exceptional.
In the press release, Marvel also noted that, “The series will introduce three all-new mutants who turn to Kitty and Emma for help with their emerging gifts: the metallic and whip-wielding Bronze, the emotion-stirring Axo, and the stealth-skilled fighter Melee! Under Kitty and Emma’s tutelage, they’ll learn not just how to survive—but to thrive! But Kitty and Emma haven’t always seen eye-to-eye, and they’ll also have lessons to teach each other, as they take up the call once more—for the children!”
