W. Scott Forbes is crafting some new variant covers for NYX #3. Available in stores on September 25th, this iconic imagery will be a part of a new From the Ashes post-Krakoan launch of NYX, the all-new X-Men title created in homage to the original series that re-explores a group of mutant teens as they navigate their lives in NYC.

This artwork for this variant cover hosts a similar look to the original with one exception: besides Laura are a group of the missing people posters of the original cast of characters in NYX, whose current whereabouts remain unknown.

You can read more in Marvel’s official press release.

Twenty years ago, X-23 made her comic book debut in Joe Quesada and Joshua Middleton’s NYX, a hard-hitting series about mutant teens surviving on the streets of New York City. Now, NYX is back for a new generation, and X-23, now known as Wolverine, returns to protect mutant runaways in a world more dangerous than ever!

To celebrate NYX’s revival and the anniversary of X-23’s debut, a new variant cover for September’s NYX #3 by acclaimed artist W. Scott Forbes captures the tone and unmistakable style of the original iconic series. On this bold cover, see Wolverine in a look reminiscent of her early appearances alongside missing posters of the original NYX cast, all of whose whereabouts remain unknown… 

With Xavier’s school long gone and Krakoa destroyed, the greatest city on Earth is about to get a huge influx of mutants, whether they’re welcome there or not! See a group of former X-Men students navigate young adulthood, discrimination, and threats bent on shattering human-mutant relations in a new run of NYX from hotshot writing duo Collin Kelly and Jackson Lanzing (TimelessAlien: Black, White & Blood) and rising star artist Francesco Mortarino (AvengersCult of Carnage: Misery).

Check out Forbes’ cover for September’s NYX #3 and pick up the debut issue of NYX on July 24!
