– “X-Force,” written by Geoffrey Thorne (“King in Black: Black Panther”) with art by Marcus To (“Shang-Chi and the Ten Rings”). Forge will headline this run with Rachel Summers, Betsy Braddock, Sage, Surge, and Tank in tow, alongside a rotating line of specialists he’ll recruit to deal with specific threats. First up in this series of special guests: Deadpool. Issue #1 will be released July 31.

– “Phoenix,” by writer Stephanie Phillips (“Spider-Gwen: The Ghost-Spider”) and artist Alessandro Miracolo (“White Widow,” “Star Wars: Yoda”). The book will follow Jean Grey, once again the host of the Phoenix Force, as she follows a distress signal from Nova/Richard Rider “to the edge of a black hole, where hundreds of lives hang in the balance.” It will mark the first solo series starring Jean using her most infamous codename, and begin on July 17.

– “NYX,” written by Collin Kelly & Jackson Lanzing with art by Francesco Mortarino (“Dark Web: Ms. Marvel”). Starting July 24, the book will follow five different mutants — Ms. Marvel, Anole, Wolverine (Laura), Prodigy, and Sophie Cuckoo — living in New York City. It marks the third “NYX” series, following the original seven-issue 2003-2005 run by Joe Quesada, Joshua Middleton, and Rob Teranishi, and Marjorie Liu & Kalman Andrasofszky’s 2008 follow-up “NYX: No Way Home.”

‘X-Men: From the Ashes’ will kick off in the meantime with Jed MacKay & Ryan Stegman’s relaunch of “X-Men” on July 10, while the Krakoa era of the characters’ series will conclude with “X-Men” #35 (legacy #700) on June 5. Other confirmed ‘From the Ashes’ series consist of Gail Simone & David Marquez’s relaunch of “Uncanny X-Men” in August, Eve L. Ewing and Carmen Carnero’s “Extraordinary X-Men” in September, and “Wolverine,” “Storm,” and “X-Factor,” which will presumably be the next three titles to be revealed.
