[QUOTE=cranger;4355296]Damn I have not read an interview that sold me on something with only sentiment in a long, long time. Marvel better not screw this up.[/QUOTE]
I know right!?
I was seriously moved by the steady, solid, thoughtful directness of his responses as much as by the content of those answers.

This sounds too much like that overhyped Disassemble and Age of X-Men.
Disassembled (10 issues) = HOX and POX (12 issues)
Age of X-Men = many new titles again
UXM #1 after 6 months of HOX and POX?

AOXM is an AU. It's not the same thing. We haven't had a full relaunch with a bunch of new ongoing series since Ressurxion years ago.

When was the last time we saw Moira?

Disassemble and Age of X are prologue to HOX and POX, and HOX and POX will be prologue to new relaunch XD

Hickman probably read this part of the Morrison manifesto:
[quote]In the last decade or so, the tendency at Marvel has been intensely conservative; comics like the X-Men have gone from freewheeling, overdriven pop to cautious, dodgy retro. What was dynamic becomes static -- dead characters always return, nothing that happens really matters ultimately. The stage is never cleared for new creations to develop and grow. The comic has turned inwards and gone septic like a toenail. The only people who are reading are fanboys who don't count. The X-Men, for all it was still Marvel's bestseller, had become a watchword for undiluted geekery before the movie gave us an electroshock jolt. And in the last decade, sales fell from millions to hundreds of thousands.
The recent X-Men has been written in an old-fashioned, overdense style for one, and we need to update, streamline and demystify the storytelling techniques considerably to appeal to modern sensibilities.[/quote]

Looking at the six people radiating out from the center, we see the Scott - Emma - Logan - Jean quadrangle as well as further subtle confirmation that Xavier bottoms for Magneto.

A version of her was in Age of X. She was actually last alive during the Revolution run. She was killed in Dream's End which ran circa 2000/2001

Not in flashback?
Chaos War. She was briefly brought back with Banshee, Thunderbird, and a few other dead X-Men.
Before that, 2001 when she was killed off. Mystique blew up the Muir Isle complex, and Moira was caught in the blast. She died on the Blackbird en route to Westchester.

A cohesive, years-long plan for the X-line?! *swoons*
Wow, Hickman loves needlessly complex terms.

Honestly this has me excited, Hickman so far in everything I’ve read of his from Avengers, Secret Warriors, FF, and even some of his indie stuff have never disappointed me. So I’m definitely in to see what he has planned.
Only thing that bumbs me out is that Mr. and Mrs. X will end, I really liked that book.
