Marvel Comics has revealed new details on X-Men Legends #10, out on December 29th which will feature Fabian Nicieza writing and Dan Jurgens on art. The series has allowed creators to return to iconic and historic eras of the X-Men. In this latest story arc kicking off in December, Nicieza and Jurgens are tackling 90s’ X-Men as they introduce something called the Eighth Circle.
“It’s always fun to write Mr. Sinister, and the opportunity to broaden a storyline that never got full traction back in the day was cool,” said Nicieza. “But the real treat was teaming with Dan Jurgens for the first time, after all this time! Another notch in my belt for great artists I’ve been privileged to work with!”
Jurgens said he was asked by Mark Basso to draw X-Men Legends and couldn’t possibly say no. “After all, it’s one of the few top drawer properties that I really haven’t worked on,” said Jurgens. “The fact that it was written by my longtime pal Fabian Nicieza cemented the deal. We’ve always talked about working together but weren’t able to make it happen—until now!”
So what’s X-Men Legends #10 about?
Professor X. Beast. Magneto. Moira MacTaggert. Amanda Mueller. These leading experts on mutantkind have been assembled by Mr. Sinister to discuss the evolution of Homo superior…but to what devious end?! Rest assured, there’ll be at least one dead body before dessert at this meeting of mutantkind’s own illuminati!
