=== ''X-Men ReLoad'' === ''X-Men ReLoad'' was the name given by Marvel Comics to their May 2004 revamp of the X-Men titles, including new visual designs for the characters.{{citation needed|date=May 2021}} The revamp was prompted by Grant Morrison's departure from ''New X-Men''. As a result of the revamp, Chris Claremont moved from writing ''[[X-Treme X-Men]]'' to writing ''Uncanny X-Men'', with Alan Davis doing the art. Chuck Austen moved from writing ''Uncanny X-Men'' to ''New X-Men'', which returned to its old name of simply ''X-Men'', with Salvador Larroca, who had been working with him on ''Uncanny X-Men'' doing the art. Finally, [[Joss Whedon]] entered as the writer of the new title ''[[Astonishing X-Men#Volume three (2004βpresent)|Astonishing X-Men]]'', with [[John Cassaday]] as artist. ''X-Treme X-Men'' was cancelled. ''[[X-Statix]]'' ended in October 2004. Also, the X-Men returned to more traditional (if not slightly revised) costumes, as opposed to the black leather uniforms from the movies. ''[[New X-Men (2004 series)|New X-Men: Academy X]]'' was also launched focusing on the lives of the new young mutants at the institute. This period included the resurrections of [[Colossus (character)|Colossus]] and [[Psylocke]], a new death for [[Jean Grey]], who later returned temporarily in the ''[[X-Men: Phoenix - Endsong]]'', as well as [[Emma Frost]] becoming the new headmistress of the institute. The institute, formerly run as a school (until the [[Decimation (comics)|depowering]] of 98% of the mutant population), served as a safe haven to mutants who are still powered.{{citation needed|date=May 2021}} Several short-lived spin-offs and miniseries started featuring several X-Men in solo series, such as ''Nightcrawler'', ''Jubilee'', ''Madrox'', ''[[X-23]]'', [[Gambit (Marvel Comics)|''Gambit'']] and [[Rogue (Marvel Comics)|''Rogue'']]. [[Cable (character)|''Cable'']] and ''[[Deadpool]]''{{'s}} books were merged into one book, ''[[Cable & Deadpool]]''. Notable additions to the X-Men have been [[Armor (Marvel Comics character)|Armor]], [[Pixie (X-Men)|Pixie]] and [[Warpath (comics)|Warpath]], while former villains such as [[Lady Mastermind]], [[Mystique (character)|Mystique]], and [[Sabretooth (character)|Sabretooth]] became members of the X-Men. Notable story arcs of this decade are "[[Gifted (comics)|Gifted]]" (2004), "[[House of M]]" (2005), "[[X-Men: Deadly Genesis|Deadly Genesis]]" (2005β2006), "[[Decimation (comics)|Decimation]]" (2006) and "[[X-Men: Endangered Species|Endangered Species]]" (2007). The X-Men were also involved in the "[[Civil War (comics)|Civil War]]" and "[[World War Hulk]]" storylines. * X-Men ** ''[[Astonishing X-Men]],'' vol. 3 (flagship) β Cyclops leads the team of X-Men and they start presenting themselves as superheroes again. ** ''[[Uncanny X-Men]],'' vol. 1 β Storm and her team continued operating as officially sanctioned mutant law enforcers (2004β2006); post ''Deadly Genesis'', it featured Xavier taking a team to space to hunt Vulcan when he seeks [[Vulcan (Marvel Comics)#The Rise and Fall of the Shi'ar Empire|vengeance on the Shi'ar Empire]] (2006β2007); the team returned to Earth to fight a group of rogue Morlocks (2007). ** ''[[X-Men Legacy|X-Men]],'' vol. 2 β Havok led a new field team consisting of Polaris, Iceman, Rogue, Gambit, Wolverine and Juggernaut (2004β2006); later featured Rogue assembling a rapid response team featuring the most dangerous X-Men former villains (2006β2007). * X-Men in Training ** ''New X-Men: Academy X'' β the school is rebuilt after Xorn's attack and Emma Frost and Cyclops are named headmasters, organizing the student body into different squad who train together. *** ''[[New X-Men (2004 series)|New X-Men]]'', vol. 2 β After ''House of M'' and ''Decimation'', Emma Frost disbanded all former training squads and integrated those students she deemed capable of combat to a new team. * Other Teams ** ''[[Excalibur (comic book)|Excalibur]]'', vol. 3 β Professor X and Magneto formed a team to rebuild the devastated mutant nation of Genosha. ** ''[[X-Factor (comic book)|X-Factor]]'', vol. 3 β a mutant detective agency founded by Madrox based on Mutant Town. ** ''New Excalibur'' β After ''Decimation'', Captain Britain brings together a new team of Excalibur as the British government decided to become more pro-active with metahuman affairs. ** ''[[District X]] β'' Bishop is assigned to the Mutant Town to investigate rising crime rates. ** ''[[X-Force (comic book)|X-Force]]'', vol. 2 β Cable re-assembles the team to stop an immortal creature called Skornn. ** ''Weapon X'', vol. 2 β featured Wolverine, Fantomex and Agent Zero quest to find the recently revived John Sublime. ** ''Exiles'', vol. 1 β the team learned the true nature of the Timebroker and later traveled through different realities to chase Proteus. ** ''Alpha Flight'', vol. 3 β Sasquatch recruits novice Canadian heroes to rescue the members kidnapped by the Plodex.
