"Revolution" was the name given to the May 2000 revamp of Marvel Comics' X-Men-related titles, to coincide with the publication of X-Men vol. 2 #100.

In each series, the "Revolution" issue represented a jump of six months after the previous issue's events. In most cases, "Revolution" also marked an attempt to send each title in a new creative direction, and to this end new creative teams were assigned to the titles. Many characters' costumes were redesigned, and a "Revolution" logo was printed along the right-hand side of each issue.

The most publicized of the changes was the return of writer Chris Claremont to the flagship titles X-Men vol. 2 and Uncanny X-Men, after nearly a decade's absence.

Three of the titles involved in the event -- X-Man, X-Force, and Generation X -- were rebranded as "Counter X". Writer Warren Ellis plotted the general direction for each of the books, and co-wrote each title with Steven Grant on X-Man, Ian Edginton on X-Force, and Brian Wood on Generation X.

The "Revolution" event was poorly received by fans and critics, leading to Claremont leaving X-Men and Uncanny X-Men after nine months. The X-Men line of books were revamped again in July 2001 with Grant Morrison writing New X-Men, Joe Casey writing Uncanny X-Men, and Claremont writing the new title X-Treme X-Men.

The "Revolution" debut issues, in order of publication, were:

Cable #79, with new writer Robert Weinberg and recently-arrived penciller Michael Ryan and inker Andrew Pepoy.
Gambit #16, with recently-arrived penciller Yanick Paquette and inker Sean Parsons.
Generation X #63, with new co-writers Warren Ellis and Brian Wood, new penciller Steve Pugh, and new inker Sandu Florea.
