La ligne de comics X-Men continue de s’agrandir avec l’annonce de Children of the Atom, une série qui mettra en scène une nouvelle équipe de X-Kids aux pouvoirs inspirés de ceux de leurs illustres aînés.

L’équipe créative est composée de Vita Ayala (Morbius) au scénario et Bernard Chang (Teen Titans) aux dessins.

Vita Ayala :

“I have never known a world without mutants and the X-Men, and to be able to create characters that would become part of the canon is WILD. I love them very much. Bernard, Chris and I have worked so hard on them, and I was practically itching to let them out into the world so others could love them too. What makes the new cast special to me is that they are reflective of a lot of people I know who look up to what the X-Men stand for, and have taken it upon themselves to further those ideals. These kids are exactly the kids who, in real life, have posters of Storm and Wolverine in their rooms, who grew up seeing them as heroes and want to live up to that.”
