Marvel announced the Journey Into Mystery/New Mutants crossover event at one of their Next Big Thing Liveblogs (they will have more this week)...

3:05 UltimateKidNova:
We're joined by Kieron and Andy as they will be working as writers on Exiled, a crossover coming this May between Journey Into Mystery and New Mutants (two of my favorite books)!

3:05 UltimateKidNova:
It's a five-part story kicking off in the Exiled one-shot then bouncing back and forth between two issues of JiM and NM both out in May

3:08 UltimateKidNova:
"There's a history between the New Mutants and Asgard." -Kieron Gillen

3:09 UltimateKidNova:
This will draw all the way back to the Siege tie-in issue of New Mutants that Kieron wrote.

3:10 UltimateKidNova:
"This developed quite quickly and quite easily given the long history of the New Mutants in Asgard. We wanted to bring that to Earth rather than take them back to Asgard. It's a little twist on how past stories have played out. There are some really cool reveals and surprises along the way that will hopefully play against type and expectation." -Andy Lanning

3:12 UltimateKidNova:
Carmine Di Giandomenico will be doing the interiors for the story.

3:18 UltimateKidNova:
Kieron explaining the story of the Disir, the cursed former handmaidens of Bor who became a sort of "ghost story for Asgardians"

3:32 UltimateKidNova:
Mephisto will indeed be a part of Exiled. He's currently in possession of the Disir and just had a date with the New Mutants' Magma.

exciting news!

:-D

I've been enjoying New Mutants lately. The Mephisto-Magma date issue was very entertaining :groucho:

Might have to skip a couple issues of New Mutants.

New Mutants is one of the best books marvel puts out and more people should read it
this past "date" issue was fantastic

So you are agreeing it's one of the best book but then you are willing to skip a couple of issues? :lol:

Currently I am unemployed. I work at my LCS 1 night a week doing busy work like bagging and boarding/filing for store credit along with 2 other guys. In a regular 4 week month that means that I get about $100 in credit to get my books. Therefore I have to be quite picky about what books I order from them and sometimes that will mean not getting a title if it is crossing over with another book that I don't read. If I am gainfully employed when this comes out, then I will get it. Otherwise, yes I will be skipping this.

Sorry to hear that. I'm in a similar situation. But fortunately Journey is part of my regular list.
