Marvel Editor-in-Chief C.B. Cebulski said that Hickman's X-Men would mark a new milestone for the team in the vein of Giant-Sized X-Men #1, Lee and Claremont's X-Men #1, Age of Apocalypse, and Grant Morrison's X-Men, calling the titles "something totally different" for the franchise.

“We are excited to have Jon back with the Marvel family, and we could not have asked for a better creative team to help usher the X-Men into a whole new era,” said Cebulski in an accompanying statement. “While we can’t reveal too much about the story just yet, these new stories will redefine the X-Men and their place in the Marvel Universe. This is a historic moment both new and passionate fans won’t want to miss.”
Let me just say that we have radical, radical plans for all of you. I grew up primarily a DC Comics guy; the only book I read of Marvel growing up was the X-Men," said Hickman during the announcement. "All the books I've done at Marvel up to this point, those were fantastic jobs - but they were jobs. This is was the first book I've loved before I started doing."

"I probably haven't been more proud of anything I've worked on than this. I think all of you will be pretty jacked. We're doing some different radical stuff. Two books that'll you have to read both to stay tuned, but there's a good reason for it."

House of X and Powers of X will begin in July, and will publish on an alternating weekly schedule, effectively delivering a weekly dose of Hickman's X-Men.

On the one hand it is Hickman back on a book regularly which is awesome as hell but on the other hand I am really hoping this isn't more time traveling/alternate reality X-Men stuff. That promo image doesn't have me holding out hope though.
The people writing for X-Men over the past 10 years have beat those horses to death and I would love to just see a straight up run like early Claremont that focused on the here and now instead of using time travel and alternatie timelines as a crutch.

Can't WAIT to see the fukkery he cooks up.

Seeing what he did with Reed and Doom, the potential for Magneto and Xavier is throufh the roof.

I'd say I'd like to see him do a flip of House of M, but from Xavier's viewpoint, but his last Marvel story was an alternate reality story.

Honestly don't care. It's gonna be piff. With the upside of not having Bendis around to ignore all of his character developments as soon as he can. :wow:
