Brian Michael Bendis is part of the reason I got back into reading Marvel Comics. Even when I wasn't a Wednesday warrior during a stretch from the early 2000s to the mid-2010s, I had amassed a stack of New Avengers trades, along with events like House of M, Secret Invasion and Siege. They presented Marvel's mainstream, non-X-Men heroes in a way that was "cooler" than I'd previously seen - even with leather bomber jackets - and they were a good companion to the hours I'd spend playing the first…

In this spoiler-free review of DIE: Loaded, we look at the new series, what it's like to return - and whether the magic still holds up.
ADVANCE REVIEW: Does DIE: Loaded #1 uphold the magic it created?
Six children fell into a role-playing game, experienced the true horror of having your fantasies become real - and went through it all again as adults. Now, they’re dealing with what they’ve learned about the true nature of DIE, including the most dangerous truth of all: everyone in the world is still at risk of being sucked inside that 20-sided realm.

“You may think I’m forgetting about Magma. I’m not.”
What New Mutants are missing from the Age of Revelation?
Thinking about the New Mutants again in this EXCLUSIVE variant cover reveal for X-Vengers #3
This X-Vengers #3 variant cover by Edwin Galmon shows half of the original class of New Mutants - Cannonball, Sunspot, Dani Moonstar and Doug Ramsey/Revelation - as they were in happier days and as they are now. Three hardened warriors taking the fight to a former teammate gone mad with power. But it begs the question, what happened to the other half?
