They're back baby, including the bestest little mutant of them all!
IGN releases details about the new New Mutants series, with a variant cover by Adam Kubert

Details here


And who is that cute little blond guy in a new costume, all breathing and animated and everything? Albeit with a bit of a technorganic look to his outfit...

I always found that such an ironic comment from someone who wore the figure hugging New Mutants costume as a matter of course. :)

And it's not just slash though, Doug broadcasts "Hug me, I'm cute" somewhere in the megawatt range to both sexes...

And look at his success rate with the ladies! Kitty, Betsy, Cyndi (a "special" case there) and Rahne. Tarot, possibly Roulette (Not much evidence there but she did pick Doug to party with...

I wouldn't necessarily believe that Doug is back and alive in the present day based on one cover, to be honest.

Oh I don't believe it for sure either, but allow me my moment of insane optimism would you?

I will join you in this moment of insane optimism :) Because I saw that and was all "Dooooooouuuggg."

But if we don't crush your hope swiftly, Marvel will, only they'll drag it out over a period of months!

Maybe Dust is the metanarrative human sacrifice they need to bring back Doug?

What? I'm not bitter!

I must mention though, didn't Guggenheim have some plan for Doug? He previewed Doug's return, then brought on NuCypher.

It's a damn shame that Wolfsbane, who's character would thrive in this series, is locked in the completely terrible X-Force series. And to add salt to the wound, she's the only cast character locked in that damned book!

Er... she is? I thought there was talk of a character leaving and a character joining New Mutants and I joined the dots and assumed Rahne.

I think they were talking 'bout Xian.

I thought she was in the initial announced lineup.

Everytime the writers have been asked about Wolfsbane, they just say she's in X-Force and praise that terrible, terrible writing.

This isn't really my kind of art but as examples of phoned-in X-duggery go, this is good. I especially like the almost-perfect-but-a-little-too-low-on-the-tip glow on the nose. This is the work of consumate professionals who have done this a zillion times before and don't really care much about it any more. I enjoy this sort of work because you can see all the technique without messy inspiration getting in the way.

So, as to character choices, are we essentially saying that the last twenty years of NM history didn't happen? Because I'm down with that.

Looks like the colorist messed up and made her headband flesh colored.

Possibly, but I don't think her headband ever covered that much of her forehead, and if you look you can see a small red section just underneath her parting, which suggests her headband is higher up.

I think the red spot is supposed to be skin toned. It's above the band.

Also, that's not how you fire a bow.

I find Dani's eyebrows disturbing. Are they attempting Secret Invasion with Neanderthals this time?

(I think that's Dani with the bow, isn't it?)

Aww, Doug, baby, don't be so grumpy just because you were pointlessly killed and have been ignored for decades! The awesome power of communication will probably not save you from a whuppin' if you keep making that cranky face at people.

That cover is beautiful and now I might have to buy it even though a NM reunion written by Zeb Wells does not sound exciting. I LOVE the New Mutants and grew up with them, but I fail to see the point here. As goofy as it was Young X-Men had the right idea - mix the NMs in as teachers for the current kids. What are all the New Mutants going to do now? I was just getting used to them being X-Men, not segregated in their little group.

Also, Legion? Put Legion on the team? Well, that'll go well.
