Jeffrey Brown has spent years charming us with his adorable take on Marvel and Star Wars across his cartooning books, and now he’s back with his latest–and dipping into something new for the artist. Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Fun re-imagines Professor X and Magneto as teachers to a gaggle of kid versions of classic X-Men lineups (and other teams like the New Mutants), this time with no Mojoverse shenanigans required, and io9 has your first look at just how cute it is inside the book.
We’re excited to exclusively reveal some of the first interiors from inside Days of Future Funwhich will run 64 pages of mutant mayhem when it releases next year. Check out an attempt to wrangle the New Mutants, some not-so-dangerous Danger Room training, and the perils of trying to teach a young Jean Grey coming into her psychic powers how not to cross boundaries in our first look below!
Jeffrey Brown’s Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Fun Preview
It’s clear even just looking at these few pages that Brown has a lot of love for the era of comics that gave us the X-Babies–interdimensional media-obsessive Mojo’s attempts to make the X-Men even more of a ratings hit for his Mojoverse empire, first by transforming the X-Men themselves into kids, and then creating legions of cloned variants–in the first place, just looking at the character designs and team makeups he’s playing with here. Maybe if Days of Future Fun is as successful as it is adorable, we’ll get to see future books playing with different eras of X-Men. The Krakoan Age as the ultimate jungle playground, anyone?
The Uncanny X-Men: Days of Future Fun will release on April 29, 2025 from Chronicle Books, and is available to pre-order here.
