Newly-returned from the afterlife, veteran X-Man Kurt Wagner finds himself in a world that’s a far cry from the one he left: Professor Xavier is dead, Cyclops is on the run, and the X-Men are divided. But determined not to let his new lease on life go to waste, Nightcrawler hits the road alongside Wolverine, eager to right some wrongs and safeguard the future mutantkind…and he’s going to do it by the means he loves most: swashbuckling, lady-charming and—of course—BAMFing!

Nightcrawler should unite the X-Men, bring Cyclops and Wolverine together through his faith...

 

[Sterling Archer]

I'm really excited for the new ongoing, It's about time he got one.

man I hate this weird, powerless Logan
everything about him now just seems so out of character

 

[XxRedxX]

I enjoyed the first issue of Nightcrawler and Wolverine's new costume.
p.s. does Nightcrawler know that Rogue is dead?

 

[Generation Lee]

Does anyone at that flipping school. There was a throwaway remark in X Men but truthfully it could have refered to her death or the fact she's on the unity team.

 

[Specter313]

It's more than likely just because of the structure of the story in which she died, that she'll likely be back alive and fixed by time travel so that it's later erased.

Spoiler

The attack on the twins' ship where she died took place in a small amount of time, during which all the other mutants were transported to the ship and then to the new "Planet X". And since none of the other books are dealing with this whole thing, it's very likely the whole thing will be reversed at some point, leading to her being alive again and the whole planet thing never happening, so they would never know she died to begin with.

 

[XxRedxX]

Ok. Good enough for me....sorta. I'm getting really frustrated with the uncanny avengers storyline.

Couldn't agree with you more. I know they need to try to make changes..but I feel the changes made to Wolverine are for the worse. I like that he is tied to Nightcrawler and I hope he can get him back on track.

[Colossal Spoons]

Just finished the first issue. I wanna support all things Nightcrawler related but Claremont has reminded me why I avoid his work. This man feels the need to explain everything in obnoxious detail.

Ok. Good enough for me....sorta. I'm getting really frustrated with the uncanny avengers storyline.

I dislike that book so much. Remender's writing is almost as unnecessarily convoluted as Hickman's. I didn't even know Rogue was dead, so much impact on the X-Universe that seems to have had
