Weapon X-Men is a 2024 comic book series from Marvel Comics. It's written by Christos Gage with art by Yildiray Çinar and color art by Nolan Woodard.


Weapon X-Men includes examples of the following tropes:

  • Alternate Universe:
    • The one-handed "Age of Apocalypse" Wolverine is recruited from Earth-295
    • According to captions, the zombified Wolverine is from Earth-2149
    • According to captions, the "Earth X" Wolverine is from Earth-9997.
    • Jane Howlett is from Earth-1281, and from over a century in the past (1909).
  • Alliance of Alternates: The team is entirely composed of different versions of Wolverine.
  • The Bus Came Back: The Wolverine of the Earth X setting returns for the first time since 2002's Paradise X.
  • Heroic BSoD: Old Man Logan completely shuts down after he's forced to kill an alternate Jubilee who's been assimilated into Onslaught's Hive Mind, as it's painfully similar to the way he was tricked into killing his own world's Jubilee.
  • Hive Mind: Onslaught assimilates unwilling humans and mutants into a hive-mind, and it's strongly implied that there's jo way to save them and recover their individual identities once that happens.
  • You Are Fat: Earth-X Wolverine is repeatedly the butt of fat jokes due to his poor physical condition, to the point Zombie Wolverine accuses him of deliberately being "a tease" with his gut constantly hanging out.
