Interesting exploration of the Hercules/Howlett relationship in "X-Treme X-Men"

A Tumblr user named saintnoname has written about the stereotype-breaking relationship between Hercules and Howlett in my "X-Treme X-Men" book. The kicker:

I love this relationship to bits and pieces, and the way it subverts so many different tropes. It really is something beautiful.

My "Astonishing X-Men" run is just 99¢ a pop at Comixology today!

Comixology launched a new 99¢ sale today that includes "Astonishing X-Men" #44, 45, 46, and 47, the "Exalted" storyline I did with artist Mike McKone that set up my "X-Treme X-Men" book.

Greg Pak talks "X-Treme X-Men" in CBR's first "X-Position" of 2013

X-Man fans interviewed me about "X-Treme X-Men" at Comic Book Resources. Here's an excerpt:

Which is your favorite character to write in X-Treme and what sets this book apart from other X-Titles?

I love all my babies equally. But Howlett and Dazzler are probably my faves. I'm pretty much in love with Howlett's tough guy exterior, great good heart, and propensity for blushing. He's a tough guy sweetheart, which is a ton of fun to write. And my girl Dazzler just makes me smile. She's got very little filter -- if she's thinking it, she's probably saying it, which is an endearing quality and a ton of fun to write. And she also strikes me as a fundamentally decent person who's always been an underdog and maybe doesn't even realize how huge a hero she really is. Again, endearing and a ton of fun to write.

Herc's coming to "X-Treme X-Men"

Fans of Marvel's Hercules please take note: an alternative universe version of the Lion of Olympus has joined the team of dimension-hopping adventurers in Greg Pak's "X-Treme X-Men" series. And he's in love with Howlett, an alternate-reality Wolverine! That's the two heroes in the image above, reunited in issue #8, which just hit stores last week.

Big moments are coming up for Herc and Howlett in issues #9 and #10 as well, so ask your local retailer to hold "X-Treme X-Men" #8 and beyond for you.

Or buy a digital copy of issue #8 right now at Comixology!

Talking Comics loves "X-Treme X-Men" #7.1

An excerpt:

... the book is hilarious, over-the-top silly (in the best way possible), full of action and ends on a heartfelt but somber note.

Buy the issue now at Comixology or ask your local store to hold one for you today!

I love this "X-Treme X-Men" #12 cover!

The book comes out in March. Preorder it with your local retailer today!

Marvel announces "X-Termination" event, which includes Greg Pak's "X-Treme X-Men"

Greg Pak's reality hopping comic book "X-Treme X-Men" joins Marjorie Liu's "Astonishing X-Men" and David Lapham's "Age of Apocalypse" for a 2013 crossover story called "X-Termination." Check out an excerpt of the Marvel.com interview:

Marvel.com: Greg, picking up things in X-TREME X-MEN #12, how do alternative Charles Xaviers figure into this story?
Greg Pak: Dazzler and her X-Treme team have been on an insane mission to kill 10 evil alterna-Xaviers before they bring ruin upon the multiverse. In this storyline, we'll finally find out exactly what threat the Xaviers represent and whether the Xavier Head in a Bottle who's been guiding the team is a villain or a hero. Most importantly, we're going to find out whether Dazzler's finally going to cross that line and risk her own soul in order to fulfill her responsibilities as a leader.

Bleeding Cool says nice things about "X-Treme X-Men"

An excerpt from Louis Falcetti's "A Crisis in Multiple Books":

Greg Pak has been quietly writing the most fun and most readable X-book for six issues now with X-Treme X-men where a band of reality displaced X-men travel the multiverse with an Xavier head in a jar, killing evil Xaviers. More like “They Keep Killing Xavier!” amirite?
