X-Men: Red Full Roster Revealed

Marvel has released the X-Men: Red full roster of characters handpicked by Jean Grey herself for what she deems an “oncoming storm”.

X-Men: Red will be coming February 2018 with creative team composed of Tom Taylor (All New Wolverine) and Mahmud Asrar (Wolverine and the X-Men) and will pick up after whatever happens in December’s Phoenix Resurrection: The Return of Jean Grey.

X-Men: Red Full Roster

The team will include:

  • Jean Grey
  • Nightcrawler
  • Gentle
  • Namor
  • Wolverine
  • Trinary
  • Gabby

And here’s the official synopsis for the surprise 3rd X-Men book…

When one of the most dangerous X-Men villains returns to wreak havoc, Jean’s dreams of peace are threatened…and order starts to turn to chaos. It’s mutant against mutant this February in an all-new adventure that will have X-fans on the edge of their seats, as Jean Grey’s team takes on the Marvel Universe – only in X-MEN RED!

Gabby, Trinary and Gentle are new X-Men in this setup. IIRC the last time I saw Gentle was back in Messiah CompleX or was that an X-Men anthology book during the 198 to Hope Summers era of X-Men stories. Nightcrawler has been a member of the X-Men even after he came back from the dead. Namor was a member of the X-Men during the Dark Reign saga, where he went and betrayed Norman Osborn.

 

Marvel gradually slowly teased the X-Men: Red full roster and here’s how they peeled away the layers…

Phoenix Resurrection #1, written by Matthew Rosenberg and illustrated by Leinil Francis Yu, is scheduled for release on Dec. 27. Meanwhile, no actual released date has been given for X-Men: Red
