The comic book boom of the 90s lead a lot of people to become lifelong fans. One of the gateways into comics during that time was cartoons and one of the most popular comic book cartoons on television was Fox's X-Men. Now, fans can see those characters once again in the upcoming SECRET WARS event this summer with SECRET WARS: X-MEN '92. Announced over at Polygon, the book will be written by Chris Sims & Chad Bowers and featuring Scott Koblish on art, with Pepe Larraz doing the cover.

Marvel originally teased this back in November, before anyone knew it was attached to SECRET WARS. Marvel Comics editor-in-chief, Axel Alonso had this to say about the upcoming book.

For many of us, animated series based on the Marvel characters, with their exciting and accessible stories, provided a fresh new entry point for a new generation of Marvel fans. Now, through the magic of our digital-only Infinite Comic format, the new Secret Wars digital-exclusive X-Men '92 series will recapture the unique energy of the animated storytelling and continue to grow the legion of Marvel fans.

Apparently the first issue of X-MEN '92 will be available digitally in May, as part of Marvel's Infinite Comics line, then get a physical print version in June. Both digital and print versions will cost $3.99.
