Whatever happened to that thing where Marvel was going to publish John Byrne's weird X-Men offshoot where he didn't leave the book when he did?

I'm gonna be using this to try and get into current X-Stuff instead of just catching up on old stuff and I have questions like is it gonna be good and do I need to know anything that's happened since IvX? And finally I just want to say I hope all my favourites get to do a cool thing.

Do you mean the current ongoing series or the upcoming Hickman series? Because "is it gonna be good" really depends on what you're reading. I'd recommend X-Men Red and All New Wolverine and by the time you finish those, just start with House of X / Powers of X.

The Hickman series, I've never read anything he's done. I actually have been catching up on All-New Wolverine though and it is, in fact, quite good.

Hickman said in interviews that you don't need to know any previous work going into this. But he's also a comic history nerd so if you have read a lot of older stuff you might get more out of it.

Yeah his history delving stuff is really more cute winks and background details, nothing that will make things confusing. You don't need to know Reed #227 is from some specific obscure as hell What If story, but if you do you might be amused.

Jesus loving Christ this book couldn't be more of a trash fire if they were trying. Hickman's run had better start with Magick walking in on Rahne in the shower saying "I had the strangest dream." Can I get spoilers?

Vaccines now actually kill people. Now we'll see if people love their kids enough to go against conventional wisdom/science and refuse to vaccinate! (E: this is a deliberately bad faith reading but somehow still better than this garbage book deserves)

Basically there's a mutant cure around, and nowadays every parent is taking their kids to the doctor to get a shot to prevent them from becoming mutants. Cyclops has asked Dark Beast to figure out a way to...cure this cure. He succeeds and distributes this anti-cure everywhere but, being Dark Beast, he makes it so that if you're actually a mutant, getting the cure will probably kill you, the rationale being that now only the most monstrous parents will be taking their kids to get this cure and doing so will expose them as the hateful people that they are.. The opening pages of this issue, incidentally, is a scene of a mom taking their son to get a shot, asking the nurse if this is "safe" and being reassured that it is, and then the kid coughs up blood and dies from the vaccine. Here it is btw I really want to say that this is Rosenberg's attempt at dark humor or him poking fun at the vaccine paranoia nowadays, except that the way the scene comes across, taken at face value, feels like a weird endorsement of anti-vaxx talking points: vaccines are actually super dangerous! You don't know what'll happen if you get them! You'll probably die or something! I don't know. The most charitable conclusion to draw right now is that he didn't give it the slightest bit of thought and it's just unintentionally doling out weird lovely rhetoric, but we saw how that all went with the Wolfsbane thing. Oh yea and then Illyana teleports Dark Beast's head into solid stone.

The kid starts growing massive puss bubbles and vomiting up blood and that's it. I'm sure Rosenberg didn't intend to write an anti-vaxx storyline, but the vibes are certainly there.
