New York Comic Con 2017: 10 Major Anouncements That Must Happen

8. New X-Men Comics

The New Mutants Magik
Marvel

Bleeding Cool reported earlier this week that Marvel were gearing up for a bevy of X-Men announcements at NYCC, one involving Legion (which was announced alongside the aforementioned Rogue/Gambit comic), and another involving the New Mutants who, as we all know, are gearing up for their own film releasing next year.

Another book mentioned in the report was Uncanny X-Men, which will apparently return once Phoenix Resurrection ends. Astonishing X-Men will also be the main vehicle behind Wolverine's return, as well as a potential resurrection for Professor Xavier, but all these bar the Legion announcement are yet to pan out.

In any case, it's clear that NYCC will be bringing the X-Men right to the forefront of its proceedings, and if that means we get a (new) New Mutants book to tie-in with the upcoming film, then that really is great.
