Kitty is going to mess that Arraki up something fierce.
[QUOTE=pkingdom;5723984]The writers have no idea where the plot of the Marauder getting blown up and Emma's brother dying should go. Its been split between here, X force and Wolverine, and nobody really seems to care. I know the detractors of the relaunch have complained that the resurrections kill tension, but are we at the point in story where family members just get assassinated and its met with 'meh'?
What are the odds its another Emma story and none of the other Marauders matter again?[/QUOTE]
The Marauder getting blown up was not really a plot in its own right, it was just a precursor to a Solem story in Wolverine, and there's only one writer handling that. Marauders itself has not been involved in that story beyond Duggan showing the logic diamond delivery in the Hellfire Gala issue, and that issue was setting up several other stories as well.
As already mentioned Christian Frost did not die, he was just knocked out and will be fine next time you see him, like any other comic character the same happens to. And we saw how his only family member reacted to all this in Wolverine #14.
[QUOTE=Paragon;5723960]Every time the script actually mentions the name of their ship, it always takes me a second to shake off my confusion as I try to figure out why they're talking about Cessily. I really wish they had picked something that wasn't already the name of an X-Men character.[/QUOTE]
True, it would be better if they appropriated E.V.A the ship of Fantomex than using the name of an established character

I don't think antagonising the Arraki is the way to go, after all they had a hand in terraforming Mars
Am I the only one who rather saw the other Pyro on the team? At least he had a sexy history with Bobby, making it more interesting.
Wonder what happened to Simon anyway, does anyone know?
The art is very very nice.

No, the original is still the greatest.

Well, he is nothing like he was before. Suddenly having humor, getting a face tattoo, that hardly feels like the original. At least Pyro II has an interesting thing with Bobby.

Bobby has "interesting things" with any guy who's willing. Even with the changes Allerdyce >>>>>>>>>>Lasker.

Yeah he’s a class act burning people to death and trying to rape women.

Simon: "Hey, Bobby. Remember that time we slept together?"
Christian: "Yes, this is exactly the kind of person I want hanging around my boyfriend."
Bobby: *does nothing because he isn't Kitty nor Emma, so he's not getting any pagetime*
A business trip to Arakko. Sounds like fun! ;)

Were Bobby and Christian ever officially boyfriends?

99.9% chance of Emma story masquerading as a team issue. I no longer even drink from that pitcher of Kool-aid! Hopefully this folds and we get a proper team book. At least they dispense with the frivolity and have Bishop conveniently split from the team upon arrival, lol! How obvious can one be.
I'm just glad Bishop didn't tell them what he's doing in an email!
Stealth solos seem par for the course these days. But if there ever was an example of "character editorially mandated," it is definitely Marauders when it comes to Bishop, Iceman and Pyro. It's clear this man does not want to write for these characters. I am guessing they were forced on the team, which happens in the industry, but it's rare to see a writer be this blatant in their displeasure/disinterest. Most at least try.
