Mutant

In "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Last Ronin: Lost Years" miniseries (by Kevin Eastman, Tom Waltz, Ben Bishop, SL Gallant, Luis Antonio Delgado, and Shawn Lee), the series shows the second iteration of the Turtles grown up. The new group is four distinct-looking Turtles named Moja, Odyn, Yi, and Uno (all different words representing one in particular) with no masks carrying the collective weapons of the team preceding them. In the comic, the group bands together under the training of Casey Jones Jr. to…

Image: Mark Brooks/Marvel ComicsBack in 2019, Jonathan Hickman gave Marvel’s mutants a soft reboot in the form of House of X/Powers of X. Now living on the sentient island of Krakoa and taking active steps to no longer be a punching bag for humans, the stories that have spun out of this have kept the X-Men books going for almost five full years now. But as this era is finally winding down, it’s time for something new to take its place.Who Should Be The New Wolverine? io9 PicksEarlier in the week, Marvel released a small…

The 2023 movie release Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem saw these versions of Leonardo, Donatello, Michelangelo and Raphael clashing with Superfly and his gang of fellow mutants for their first official superhero outing. Ultimately the quartet persuaded the other mutants to switch sides and help defeat Ice Cube’s character, but a greater threat now lies on the horizon. Mutant Mayhem’s ending teased the arrival of Shredder, and director Jeff Rowe opened up about how he wants to make the Turtles’ arch-nemesis…

If Exodus' words are to be believed and Jesus Christ really was a mutant with deaf-defying powers, he shares his abilities with several other powerful characters in the Marvel Universe. Over the decades, readers have seen a number of heroes — not including those involved in the X-Men's resurrection protocols — resurrect others with their incredible powers. For example, Franklin Richards once teamed up with his sister Valeria to bring Galactus back from the dead in "Fantastic Four" #49 (by Carlos Pacheco,…

In the comics, Santa Claus's primary skill set includes presumed immortality and the ability to warp reality. The first power is self-explanatory as he never seems to age and is, again, built upon a bedrock of combined belief. His second power, however, is harder to define because the framework of reality covers, well, everything. The simplest usage of this is that Santa's gift bag, much like the TARDIS on "Doctor Who," is bigger on the inside.  During the aforementioned "Marvel Holiday Special" comic,…

Marvel‘s Multiverse Saga is now three years deep, but it still feels like it’s yet to fully kick into gear. Especially as we’re not entirely sure how the Kang plotline is going to play out, amid all the Jonathan Majors legal drama. In many ways, the exciting thing about the Multiverse Saga is what happens after it, not during it. Phases Four through Six are all set to lead up to 2027’s Avengers: Secret Wars, widely touted as a soft reboot of the MCU which will see the Marvel multiverse rebooted, thereby allowing for…

“In the not too distant future…” This is the caption with which 2000’s X-Men movie opens, and sure enough, in the not too distant future the X-Men will be forming once again within the MCU. While we wait for a full-on reboot of the Children of the Atom to emerge, although Marvel is already searching for scriptwriters, things have definitely heated up on the mutant front across Phase Four and Five so far. Movies and TV series such as Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness, Ms. Marvel, The Marvels, and the upcoming…

A new study has, for the first time, settled the debate about how a mutated protein present in half of all human cancers drives tumor growth. The discovery will not only facilitate a rethink of the way cancer is treated but may lead to new and improved therapeutics.Normally, the TP53 gene provides instructions for making the protein p53, which plays a critical role in repairing or, if it’s unable to be repaired, destroying damaged cellular DNA. It’s a tumor suppressor, regulating cell division and preventing cells from…
