Superstar writer Alex Paknadel is dipping his toe into the X-Men sandbox as the From The Ashes era begins following the Fall of X and the end of The Krakoan Era.

Paknadel is writing the upcoming Sentinels limited series spotlighting a squad of soldiers, each one scarred from Earth-shattering superhero conflicts and upgraded with nanotechnology, and tasked with apprehending dangerous mutants that threaten coexistence.

He is also currently penning the Marvel Infinity Comic X-Men: From The Ashes set around—and beyond—the globe, the upcoming titles see new teams assemble to take on emerging threats to mutantkind, beloved characters fulfill their long-awaited destiny as solo heroes, and other groups of mutants come together to survive a world that fears them now more than ever. They may share the same dream, but they have different missions.

Alex stopped by to chat with Comic Watch’s Live Show The Comic Watchers about both series and his work.

Sentinels hits stands in October and X-Men: From The Ashes is currently releasing on the Marvel Unlimited service
