He's actually dead, but Exodus is going to unkill him... but not without some serious glitches to work through: http://www.marvel.com/news/comicstories.2327.Carey_Talks_X-Men_Legacy Quote Originally posted by Mystery Lad: X-Men-- don't know what to expect here, really. Anyone seen hints? Who's appearing Do you mean Uncanny? X-Men's becoming Legacy. There's an interim arc following Cyclops & Frost; Angel; and Nightcrawler, Colossus & Wolverine. Then there's going to be a new core team starting in #500 - the FCBD X-Men cover suggests it's the AXM team with Nightcrawler and Pixie replacing Beast and Shadowcat. Quote Originally posted by Mystery Lad: X-FACTOR-- supposed to be a character to replace Rahne. All else continues as it was. Though the team now has a more unified purpose in rescuing Layla, I think. Darwin's the replacement for Wolfsbane. Quote Originally posted by Mystery Lad: CABLE-- raising baby Jean (or whoever) off somewhere else. Another time? Like that'll be long-lasting. Other characters? Bishop? Bishop's the bad guy. He's even been given a metal right arm because Cable has a metal left arm to show how they're mirror images... Frankly, it looks crap, and this is coming from a Cable fan... Quote Originally posted by Mystery Lad: There's a couple of WOLVERINE titles, but I don't pay any attention to those, frankly. Unless there's a guest-star I care about. I think I remember reading that Millar is coming back to Wolverine, which might mean a return to the NORTHSTAR storyline. I'd be into that. Miller's story is a future story. That sounds, as this guy so succinctly put it , like "a plot that was developed before the licensed characters to fill it out were chosen. I suppose it's just possible that Millar will make everything seem like an organic outgrowth of the characters, but this synopsis is somewhere between a random pop-culture collage and deliberate Internet bomb-throwing of the sort Millar's indulged in before." Quote Originally posted by Mystery Lad: I think Warlock's appearing in NOVA now (anyone read that title and care to confirm?), so maybe there'll even be a bigger reunion in the future. Warlock's due to appear in Nova #11-12 anyway, when Nova visits the Technarchy homeworld. Quote Originally posted by Mystery Lad: And ASTONISHING continues on it's parallel track,... It's on pause after July for six-eight months* before Ellis & Bianchi's AXM: Second Stage gets underway. *cue round of "how do you tell the difference" jokes. My views are my own and do not reflect those of everyone else... and I wouldn't have it any other way. Cobalt, Reboot & iB present 21st Century Legion: Earth War .

Ellis is taking over for Whedon? Awesome, another book I can drop from my pull-list. Which leaves me with PADs X-Factor for Marvel. Yikes. I hadn't realized it had gotten that small!

Uncanny is what I'm really excited about. That's Brubaker right? A story in San Fran with Angel, Scott, and Emma? That sounds awesome! I've always wanted Angel to move out west and lead his own X-Men with possibly Bobby at this side. San Fran is where I would've put them as well. So I am pumped. (as for the other members of my San Fran team? Skids, Meltdown (boom boom), Leech, and a wildcard...maybe villain)
