X-Men: Millennial Visions

[lordultimus]

So I've already posted two of Marvel's Millennial Visions one-shots, which featured alternate reality/future versions of Marvel characters. However, the very first one published was centered entirely around the X-Men, and was so popular it not only got a sequel (which I've also posted scans from here) and the previously mentioned one-shots, it helped inspire the Exiles. In fact, Nocturne and her reality's X-Men first appeared here (though my scans seem to be missing her, sadly).



The original oneshot:












And here's X-Men: Millennial Visions 2001:

Goddess of Thunder's power is a 100 pound woman able to lift a warhammer.

Not enough Psylocke

Blink without an arm.....clever.

Well, I'll give The Big X-Change credit for not using the 'Ex-Men' gag that tends to accompany that sort of premise...

I wouldn't be surprised if that joke was the whole inspiration for it though.

Is there a text piece behind the scenario in the Art Adams cover or is only a cover?

[lordultimus]

It's just a cover.

[laughing_tree]

That's a shame. That one's the most visually interesting!

Gender-swapped Storm and Wolverine look super creepy.

It kinda works for Nightcrawler and Rogue though.

They really needed to pair all of the artists with writers to get the most out of the concepts. The Geoff Johns/Ethan Van Sciver one is pretty well thought-out (it wouldn't surprise me if it started out as an X-Men miniseries pitch before they became DC exclusives).

I would read the hell out of NYXF, just saying.

(also, poor Jubilee on the cover! Breaks her back, and isn't even in any of the pitches)

[jmacq1]

Yeah, NYXF looked quite interesting.

Oh wow, I never knew about this! Even having it's own EXiles team, nice!
