As some of you know July is in the Summer. Some of you are relaxing and others want to read a comic. Let me tell you something Marvel has got your back. First off Dark X-men The beginning #1 is starting here is info: After evading the Dark Reign (DR) for much of the year, the X-Men succumb to Norman Osborn's clutches when DARK X-MEN: THE BEGINNING #1 goes on sale. The issue, along with UNCANNY X-MEN #513, mark the first two chapters of the "Utopia" tie-in as the books set out to explain what happened to our mutants and how they wound up underneath Osborn's cloak of darkness.

Summer must be the season to cross over to the dark side. Over 15 new Dark Reign titles, including DR: THE HOOD #3, DR: LETHAL LEGION #2 and DR: THE SINISTER SPIDER-MAN #2 take the Marvel U by storm in July. If you can take that I have more info on The incredible hulk #600 and more, Info: With 600 issues to each of their credits, don't expect Spider-Man and the Hulk to slow down anytime soon! "The Man" himself, Stan Lee, along with Dan Slott, Marco Martin and John Romita Jr. are just a few of the creative masterminds behind AMAZING SPIDER-MAN #600, while Jeph Loeb and Ed McGuinness may reveal the truth behind Red Hulk in INCREDIBLE HULK #600!

America never looked so beautiful with Gene Colan writing and illustrating CAPTAIN AMERICA #601! The milestone double-issue features special cameos from Nick Fury and the late Steve Rogers, as Bucky Barnes uncovers a lost tale from his and Cap's World War II adventures. If you are brave enough then you can take a hack at Deadpool Merc With A mouth! #1Info: We simply had to make Deadpool's nickname official when naming Victor Gischler's and Bong Dazo's DEADPOOL: MERC WITH A MOUTH #1. A mission to the retrieve a bio-weapon uncovers a web of lies and deceit, leading Wade Wilson to discover the severed head of his Marvel Zombies counterpart! Oh, and did we mention it's still alive? Can the two mouths escape the clutches of Hydra and the primitive Savage Land or will both be silenced once and for all?

Capitalizing on the success of X-MEN: FIRST CLASS, Scott Gray and Roger Cruz team up to guide the second generation of X-Men through mutant adolescence in UNCANNY X-MEN: FIRST CLASS #1! Follow Cyclops, Storm, Banshee, Colossus, Nightcrawler, Wolverine and Phoenix as they familiarize themselves with their powers as well as the Inhumans! A sad end comes to the ultimate universe! Info: Marvel bids farewell to the Ultimate Universe in style with final one-shot Requiem issues, including ULTIMATUM: FANTASTIC FOUR REQUIEM #1 by Joe Pokasi and Robert Atkins, ULTIMATUM: X-MEN REQUIEM #1 by Aron E. Coleite and Ben Oliver and ULTIMATUM: SPIDER-MAN REQUIEM #2 (of 2) by Brian Michael Bendis, Mark Bagley and Stuart Immonen to name a few.

New story, new creative team, same-old battle for humanity! Peter David works alongside artist Eric Nguyen to produce the inaugural issue of HALO HELLJUMPER, the new series following the 105th Orbital Drop Shock Troopers, as they defend the galactic colony of Ariel against mysterious forces. If that put you down then this will bring you back up Info: Some consider seven a lucky number, and with our 70th Anniversary and July being the seventh month of the year, we agree! The ALL SELECT COMICS #1 70TH ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL, following the Blond Phantom and the USA COMICS #1 70TH ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL starring the Destroyer go on sale that month, complete with limited edition variant covers by Marcos Martin!

Finally, Iron Fist and the Immortal Weapons make their voices heard with a limited five-issue run of IMMORTAL WEAPONS! Uniting the talents of Jason Aaron, Duane Swierczynski, Mico Suayan and Travel Foreman, the double-sized IMMORTAL WEAPONS #1 depicts the life and origin of Immortal Weapon favorite, Fat Cobra! Summer just got hotter!

Today feels like Ed Brubaker Day.  Three news articles about the man.  So his year-long "epic" is just about over.  I know people have had mixed feelings about it.  I've enjoyed it.  It's been nice to get the X-Men away from Earth and the mansion.  I'm still on the fence over Vulcan but I've been diggin' Darwin.  I hope he finds his way out of the M'kraan Crystal.

It's been a long year for the team of mutants in Uncanny X-Men, as writer Ed Brubaker has put them through the paces for the last 11 issues, all leading up to this moment! Uncanny X-Men #486 brings readers the conclusion of "The Rise and Fall Of The Shi'ar Empire" and not everyone will be returning to Earth! We've got the M'Kraan Cystal, a psychotic man atop the Shi'ar throne and a girl with the power of the Phoenix Force—what more do you need to know?

Critically acclaimed scribe Ed Brubaker and "Young Gun" artist Billy Tan have delivered 11 action packed issues, with fans riveted by the ride! "With drama, action, and intergalactic adventure the likes of which the X-Men haven't seen in far too long, 'The Rise and Fall of the Shi'ar Empire' has been quite an amazing run," said Aaron Stueve of BrokenFrontier.Com.

Don't miss the pulse pounding conclusion this May, as Uncanny X-Men will never be the same! Not everyone's coming back to Earth and the ones that do will find that the consequences of their actions will carry through to this fall's top secret X-Men event. As one door closes, another opens…let's just hope the X-Men can survive it!
