The best new comics for March 20 sees the Fall of X center on the Phoenix, while Wonder Woman and Superman go searching for a birthday gift.
It’s a pretty red-letter point in time for X-Men fans, in most cases. The recently announced From the Ashes brings the X-Men more in line with traditional stories. And just in time for X-Men ‘97 to hit, too!
While not every fan is thrilled about the end of Krakoa, it’s hard to deny just how exciting things are right now. There’s still plenty to get excited about if you’re not a fan of the X-Men, though, as Nightwing races towards the end of its current creative team’s run while Afro Samurai creator Takashi Okazaki returns to Star Wars!
Here are the best comic books for this coming week to help you prepare for another stellar week of releases.

X-Men Forever #1
The upcoming X-Men title features a lot of characters, but Jean Grey is notably missing from the line-ups. That raised a lot of eyes, considering how heavily she’s been a focus of the Fall of X event.
The building blocks for Jean’s future–and how she’ll factor into From The Ashes–will almost certainly being here. We know Jean will appear in some capacity given there’s a Phoenix title coming, but what we don’t know is if the titular Phoenix be Jean or someone else–like Rachel or Hope, perhaps.
HAUNTED HOUSE OF X! How can you kill a digital god? What do you do when the Phoenix is bleeding out into nothing? There’s been questions that have haunted you since the end of IMMORTAL X-MEN. Finally, some answers. There’s also been some questions that have haunted you since the START of IMMORTAL X-MEN. Finally, some answers too. Tying directly into the pages of the epic FALL OF THE HOUSE OF X and RISE OF THE POWERS OF X comes this story of revelation from Kieron Gillen (IMMORTAL X-MEN) and Luca Maresca (CHILDREN OF THE VAULT)!

Nightwing #112
Nightwing has always been one of my favorite characters, and the current run is an absolute treat. To say I’m gutted that the current run is ending would be an understatement.
The stage is being set for Tayor and Redondo’s finale, Fallen Grayson. How will it pay off for one of DC’s premier legacy heroes in a DC Universe where Dick Grayson’s best friends are the world’s de facto Justice League? I can’t wait to see how this one ends.

Around seven centuries ago, the Grayson name was born. A child of the Black Death. The story of revenge reaches its epic conclusion.

Invincible Iron Man #16
It feels like it’s been an eternity in the making, but the long-awaited punch-up between Iron Man and Feilong is finally here. These two have been at each other’s throats for nearly two years now, and fans are going to get a hell of a show as they finally collide.
The issue sees the debut of Tony’s new Sentinel Buster suit, along with the first practical use of his new Mysterium Armor. Will he get other suits? Is War Machine finally going to make his return? Fall of X keeps on keeping on in this one.
D-Day is here and there is absolutely a main event: Iron Man vs. Feilong! Get ready for the biggest clash of armor you’ve ever seen! Plus: Tony gets some new suits!

Wonder Woman #7
Last month, Wonder Woman may have had the best single-issue release of the year, which is quite an accomplishment for a book released in February.
This month, things are pulling back for a little homage to one of the best Superman stories ever written, For The Man Who Has Everything. While it may not have the big punches or high-octane action of last month’s release, the more emotional throughline of this story has the potential to resonate just as hard.
A SPECIAL ISSUE WRITTEN BY TOM KING WITH ART BY GUILLEM MARCH! For the Batman who has everything! Amidst their adventures as Superman and Wonder Woman, Clark and Diana take a thrilling journey into space to get a birthday gift for their dear friend Bruce.
By Tom King, Guillem March, Tomeu Morey, & Clayton Cowles
Batman/Superman: World’s Finest #25
The next World’s Finest arc is going to see Batman and Superman battle the denizens of the Fifth Dimension. Before that, though, there’s going to be a party!
World’s Finest celebrates 25 issues this month, and they’re doing so in style with the first meeting of Joker and Lex Luthor. The title has already made a name for itself with fun reimaginings of events like Batman and Superman’s first meeting, and this should be no exception.
WITNESS THE FIRST MEETING BETWEEN THE JOKER AND LEX LUTHOR! Join Batman and Superman as the World’s Finest team celebrates 25 issues of World’s Finest! This oversized special issue takes our heroes around the DCU and beyond—with a special lead story that will at last showcase the first meeting between The Joker and Lex Luthor. The World’s Finest villains form an unholy alliance and will send chills down the spines of the DCU Heroes forevermore! PLUS: Spinning out of the events of the World’s Finest Annual, Doom-Mite strikes and points the way to the next World’s Finest epic!
