About the series
Grant Morrison’s run on New X-Men (2001–2004, Marvel) redefined the mutant metaphor for the 21st century, stripping away decades of costume clichés in favor of sleek, school-uniform style and psychological depth. With Frank Quitely, Chris Bachalo, and Ethan Van Sciver providing the sharp, kinetic visuals, Morrison pushed the X-Men into bold new territory—exploring themes of evolution, identity, and mutation as a cultural force. This eight-issue series is a landmark, breathing fresh urgency into the franchise and influencing the direction of Marvel's mutants for years to come.
