New Mutants Trailer & Comic Specs

Now that you saw the trailer it's time to share a few comic keys relating to the film for those who like to invest in comics. So check out the list of comics you may possibly want to speculate on.

-Giant-Size X-Men #1 (1st Illyana): The most expensive

and probably the hardest comic on the list to obtain but I

had to mention it since it's when Anya Taylor's character

first appeared.
Sub-key: Magik (Illyana and Storm Limited Series) #1

(1st app Illyana as Magik), Uncanny X-Men #171

(1st Soulsword), & New Mutants #19 (1st Illyana's

Mystic Armor)
Speculation Chances: 100%

-Marvel Graphic Novel #4 (1st New Mutants &

Reverend Craig): First of appearance of the film's

characters Wolfsbane, Cannonball, Sunspot,

Psyche/Mirage and Reverend Craig (played by

Happy Anderson).
Sub-key: New Mutants V1 #1 (1st issue of the

series and 2nd appearance of New Mutants),

New Mutants V1 #21 (1st Psyche as Mirage) &

X-Force V3 #6 (Death of Reverend Craig)
Speculation Chances: 100%

-X-Men V2 #65 (1st Cecilia Reyes): She plays the doctor and caretaker of the group in the film.

Speculation Chances: 100%

-New Mutants V1 #3 (1st Demon Bear): The villain

of the film; an entity that draws its power from

negative human emotion. It is capable of

teleportation, immense strength, transformation,

and the corruption of human souls.
Sub-key:New Mutants V1 #18 (1st full Demon Bear),

X-Force V3 #10 (Death of Demon Bear &

Rare Variant of Demon Bear)
Speculation Chances: 100%

-Marvel Graphic Novel #5: X-Men: God Loves, Man Kills (1st Purifiers): A force of Christian fundamentalists who see themselves in a holy war against mutants, believing them to be the children of the Devil and thus worthy of extermination.
Sub-key: Bastion (X-Men #52 Cameo / Uncanny X-Men V1 #333 1st full app) & Nimrod (Uncanny X-Men V1 #191 1st app) were members of The Purifiers.
Speculation Chances: 100% (10% on Sub-keys)

-Uncanny X-Men V1 #221 (1st full Mr. Sinister): Rumor

that he's supposed to show up somewhere in the film.

Also, the hospital The New Mutants are in is named

after him.
Sub-key: Uncanny X-Men V1 #212 (1st Mention) &

#213 (Shadow figure), and Gambit V3 #12 (1st Essex

Clinic).
Speculation Chances: 20-50%

-Uncanny X-Men V1 #166 (1st Lockheed unnamed):

Towards the end of the trailer, there's some kind of

winged creature shooting an energy blast out its mouth.

Possible chance it's Lockheed.
Sub-key: Uncanny X-Men V1 #153 (1st Lockheed ever

his appearance in this issue was just a fairy tale), #168

1st Lockheed as Lockheed) and #175 (1st cover app).
Speculation Chances: 20%

-Uncanny X-Men V1 #181 (1st Puff): Same theory as

Lockheed but if it isn't him Puff would be the runner up

in my spec.
Speculation Chances: 10%
