True Believers Astonishing X-Men #1 Published Jun 2017 by Marvel Reprinting Astonishing X-Men (2004) 1 "GIFTED" pt. 1 (of 6) Written by Joss Whedon. Art and Cover by John Cassaday. WHEDON (creator of TV's Buffy the Vampire Slayer) and CASSADAY (Planetary, CAPTAIN AMERICA) bring you the explosive #1 issue of the all-new flagship X-Men series! As part of X-MEN: RELOAD, this issue marks a return to classic greatness and the beginning of a brand-new era for the X-Men. Kitty Pryde, former teen X-Man, arrives late for her first day as a new faculty member of the Xavier School. After looking around the ol� mansion a little bit to reminisce, she shows up late to the student body convocation for the fall semester, in the middle of Emma Frost�s �They will always hate us� welcome speech. Scott Summers is not pleased with Emma faking a Sentinel attack to test the students, and Logan is not pleased that Scott is now sleeping with Emma. He expresses his displeasure with combat. Emma for her part isn�t pleased that the X-drama is still all about Scott�s recently deceased wife Jean. The team huddles to discuss their relational dysfunction. Kitty wonders what she�s doing here, and she and Emma instantly get their snark on. Scott wants to see the X-Men being more publicly heroic to make up for the bad impression Magneto left when he destroyed and enslaved Manhattan in the final Grant Morrison issues of New X-Men. �We have to astonish them,� says Scott. They get their chance soon enough; a big alien bruiser, accompanied by a human goon squad, has taken hostages in a skyscraper. The team dons their new costumes (bright colors to make the public feel happier, instead of the black and yellow of Morrison�s era) and heads for the Blackbird� 28 pages, full color.
