Simple question. Who’s reading House of X and Powers of X? And if you’re not one of them, then well, you should be. But if you’re not reading it because X-Men’s stories are always highly convoluted and you never can understand the time travel, characters, etc. hey I’m right there with you. However, these two comics are basically the perfect opening for someone that has those concerns can jump right in.
As of this writing, there have been two issues of House of X and two issues of Powers of X released. There will be six issues each leading to an all new run of X-Men written by Jonathan Hickman.
But let’s just say you are still having doubts. Hey, I get it. X-Men’s continuity can be troublesome, but Hickman himself claims that he is fixing all the problems that people faced with X-Men. Most legendary comic book characters have what insiders call “Bible” solely on that character and once a creator begins writing for the character it sums up with that character can do and can’t do. According to Hickman, X-Men didn’t have one until he came along which is downright insane since the group has been around since almost 60 years!

I’m 38 years old. I have a wife of nineteen years, Stephaney, and a 13 year old son, Trenton, and a 11 year old son, Steffan, and a 6 year old daughter, Charley. I was born in Longview, Texas and grew up in Gladewater, Texas.
I have been following Professional Wrestling since I was twelve years old. I followed my dream of becoming a Professional Wrestler in 2002 at the age of sixteen when I started training. Twenty-two years later, I am still wrestling by the stage name of “Supernova” Sean Cordova.
I have been a fan of comic books since I was eight years old. My first comic book I remember reading was Spawn #1. I also was a fanatic about Moon Knight. In my collection then among Spawn and Moon Knight, I had several mixed issues that included Batman, Superman, Ghost Rider, X-Men and Daredevil just to name a few. I would also make my own comic books and actually sell them. My Uncle Neil, in fact, bought a “limited time only” issue of a character I created called Black Cat and his wife still owns the only copy in existence. I fell out of comic books a bit in my teenage years due to Professional Wrestling, but checked in from time to time especially when WWE had a small run with The Undertaker comic. I got back into the swing of things when I started reading Batman RIP story arc and collecting many of the Batman graphic novels that are available. Now I have over twenty-five comics on my pull sheet at the nearby comic store each month and I’m having a blast!
My favorite band of all-time is the Smashing Pumpkins. The first time I listened to the band was in 1994 and still to this day when I need a pick-me-up, Smashing Pumpkins is my go to band. The few that follow behind is GWAR, Nirvana, Nine Inch Nails, Modest Mouse, and Guided by Voices.
I hope that you keep checking back with Dropkick Daily and enjoy!
