NYX is a limited series of comic books by Marvel Comics, consisting of seven issues, published between 2003 and 2005.[1] It is written by Joe Quesada with art by Joshua Middleton (issues #1–4) and Rob Teranishi (issues #5–7).[2][3] NYX stands for District X, New York City.[4]

The series features homeless teenage mutants in New York City: time-freezing Kiden, shape-shifting Tatiana, body-shifting Bobby, his mysterious brother Lil Bro, the female clone of Wolverine (X-23), and Cameron, a woman with no powers.[5] The third issue of the series featured the first comic book appearance of X-23, a character created on the X-Men: Evolution cartoon.[6] Although the series was cancelled in 2005, a sequel 6-issue miniseries titled NYX: No Way Home was released in 2009.[7]

A second volume was released in July 2024 as part of the X-Men: From the Ashes event which relaunches the X-Men line. The series focuses on former X-Men students and Kamala Khan as they adapt to life in New York City in the post-Krakoan Age when mutants are hated and feared even more due to the actions of Orchis. Laura Kinney (formerly X-23) is the only announced returning character.
