About the series
In 2005, Marvel launched District X, a gritty two-issue series that explored the daily grind of policing in a mutant-heavy precinct of New York City. The story focused on the officers of the 14th precinct's "Mutant Town," blending procedural crime drama with the social tensions of the Marvel Universe. Though brief, the series offered a grounded, street-level perspective on mutant-human relations, distinct from the cosmic or superheroic conflicts of the era. Its concise run remains a notable experiment in genre crossover, highlighting the publisher's willingness to tackle real-world issues through its super-powered lens.
