Written by Tom Taylor and illustrated by Mahmud Asrar, the series will feature Namor, Nightcrawler, All-New Wolverine, her sister Gabby (Honey Badger), the Wakanda mutant Gentle, and a “mysterious new character” called Trinary, according to Marvel.

But they’ve now announced another major team member arriving in April 2018 in the title, Gambit, for issue #3.
Series editor Mark Paniccia explains:
Things have heated up with attacks on mutants across the globe. We know that one of the X-Men’s most powerful villains is behind the chaos, but will Jean, Nightcrawler, All-New Wolverine and Honey Badger have a chance to stop the next deadly wave? A favorite Cajun mutant might be able to tip the scales in their favor… but at what cost?
