X-Men '92 was originally a limited series as one of the many tie-in titles for Marvel's 2015 Secret Wars event and later was released in its second volume as a continuous series in early 2016, starring members of the popular 90's Fox Kids Saturday morning cartoon, X-Men.

As part of the 2015 Secret Wars event comic, Marvel revived older series and explore alternate comic universes, including the continuities explored was the 1992 X-Men animated series. Chris Sims and Chad Bowers wrote a six-issue limited series drawn by Scott Koblish. The premier issue sold 97,617 issues and was the 8th highest selling issue that month. The first volume was also released under Marvel's Online Infinite Comics series in an eight-issue story arc. After Secret Wars ended, the series returned in a second volume that lasted 10 issues. The series was praised for it's outlandish 90's style and color and many 90's cultural references, including a crossover with The Toadies.

The team is seen living a fairly peaceful life in the Battlezone called Westchester. The baron of this region is Senator Kelly. He has little difficulty since most of the villians were wiped out in a previous war and the remaining villians were sent to "Bureau of Super-Powers" run by Cassandra Nova for rehabilitation. After a rogue Sentinel attack the X-Men are invited to the facility to learn about process. The X-Men are then put into the virtual training pods, but were really sent into the Astral Plane, since Nova was actually possessed by the Shadow King. The team is saved by Jubilee, who Nova didn't consider a big enough threat and didn't put into the VR pod and by the X-Force, who assault the facility. Xavier is able to repel the Shadow King and the X-Men save Baron Kelly, but a mega-Sentinel is released against the X-Mansion. The X-Men and X-Force combine to defeat the machine before it causes too much damage.
