News : X-men making the jump to manga.


It looks like they're trying to cover both shonen(boys manga) and shojo(girls manga), the misfits one is kind of disturbing don't you think? I mean X-men is predominantly a comic made for males and it seems like they're stretching it a bit in an attempt to appeal to a female audience.

I'm not really a huge fan of X-men, but it's interesting to see what they're trying, might check out the wolverine one if I see it in stores. As someone mentioned to me, he looks like an 80's rock singer! I think I'll pass on the "girl at all-boys school" one though.

The gripping, all-new adventure of the X-men's greatest icon, completely reimagined in the Manga style.

This is not the Wolverine you know.

Logan is a teenage rebel with a real good reason for having a real bad attitude. Ever since being left in a nearby forest–with no memory of who he was or how he got there–Logan (or Wolverine, as his classmates sometimes call him) has been stuck in a martial arts school in the icy wilds of Canada. No wonder he’s bored, restless, yearning. There’s a whole world out there, and Logan can almost taste it. But he’s chained to a past he can’t remember and can’t escape. Now it just may destroy his future.


Marvel's mutants in a radical remix! Kitty Pryde has always been the odd girl out. A mutant, she was born with strange superpowers, magical talents that make her the class freak. But Kitty's world is changed when she's invited to study at Professor Xavier's School for Gifted Youngsters, a special home for mutant teens. There's just one catch: Kitty's the only girl at the all-boy school, and she ends up just feeling like a freak all over again.
