''X-Terminators'' is a limited series from Creator/MarvelComics, published as part of the ''ComicBook/DestinyOfX'' arc and starring Dazzler, Boom-Boom, Jubilee and Wolverine (Laura Kinney). The series is written by Creator/LeahWilliams, with art by Carlos Gomes and color art by Bryan Valenza.

Although the ''X-Terminators'' name has been used before for [[ComicBook/XTerminators another comic]] in the ''X-Men'' franchise, there is no direct connection between the two series.

After a bad break-up, Dazzler gathers Boom-Boom and Jubilee and goes out drinking. After a bad night out, they then find themselves fighting vampires. Suspiciously ''well-prepared'' vampires, too.

The first issue was released 21 September 2022.

!!''X-Terminators (2022)'' provides examples of the following tropes:
* CensorBox: A variant. Black censor boxes are overlaid on the swearing in speech bubbles, but white SymbolSwearing text is also added to the censor boxes.
* ContentWarnings: There's a small, formal parental advisory warning on the cover. After which the first page of the comic is a full page parental advisory, at least partly playing the trope for laughs.
-->It contains ''crude humor'', ''alcohol usage'', ''[[HotterAndSexier partial nudity]]'', ''strobe effects'', ''violence'', and some of your ''favorite mutants'' acting like ''absolute dumbasses''. READER DISCRETION IS ADVISED.
* DefenestrateAndBerate: Played straight in the prologue. After Dazzler catches Alex talking to another woman in Dazzler's own apartment, she throws his clothes and his vinyl out of the window. Alex is below on the street, begging her to give him another chance and spare his record collection.
* KryptoniteProofSuit: [[spoiler:Alex wears a Lightbringer amulet, which protects him from sunlight's usual effects on vampires. It also shields him from Dazzler's light powers]].
* SymbolSwearing: There is a lot of swearing, all of it obscured this way. It's also deliberately emphasized, with the symbols presented as rectangular black {{Censor Box}}es overlaid on the white speech bubbles, with the profanity symbols in white text.
