Marvel Comics has teased the imminent arrival of the "All-New, All-Different" X-Men. Dubbed the 3K X-Men, the newest incarnation of the titular team will debut in May's X-Men #16.
Per the Marvel teaser, the "From the Ashes" X-Men series scribe Jed MacKay will write the issue with art by Netho Diaz. Ryan Stegman provides the cover art for X-Men #16, which pays homage to the cover of his first issue. Mackay and Stegman's post-Krokoan inaugural X-Men issue laid the seed for these new mutants by having Cyclops' Alaskan X-Men, including Psylocke, Kid Omega, Magik, Tempest, and the Juggernaut, go up against six adult-onset mutants activated by the shadowy and nefarious 3K organization. The group, which includes Professor Charles Xavier's telepathic twin sister, Cassandra Nova, has been producing new mutants by force-activating the X-Gene in adult human subjects.

The Upcoming Issues of Marvel's X-Men
The current team have formed an alliance with Canada's premier superhero team, Alpha Flight, to take down an armada of alien bounty hunters, while X-Manhunt will continue in March's X-Men #13. In the installment, "the X-Men have caught up with their erstwhile mentor, Charles Xavier, on his mad scramble across the country. But they aren't the only ones who've found him!"
April's X-Men #14 will see the town of Merle "enlist the X-Men to aid in a search and rescue operation for a missing child – one closer to the X-Men than the Sheriff knows. But while the X-Men search for Piper Cobb, they are themselves being watched – as their shadowy 3K adversaries move to strike directly, their own agenda unfolding!"

Storm Sets Up the Biggest Fight in Marvel Comics History
The latest chapter in Storm's first post-Krakoan saga just paved the way for the most epic confrontation in the history of the Eighth Cosmos.
Just before the debut of the "All-new, All-different" X-Men in the sixteenth issue, 3K will step out of the shadows for the first time in X-Men #15, foreshadowing the arrival of the new team. Marvel's description reads, "What began as a simple search and rescue has escalated, with not just the X-Men but the entire town of Merle at danger! And as 3K steps out from the shadows for the first time in order to further their twisted program, will the Means, their anointed headsman, slake his bloodthirst on the X-Men?"
Jed Mackay and Netho Diaz's X-Men #16, with the brand new 3K X-Men front and center, will arrive in comic book shops in May 2025.
