What did you all think about Orlando's story?
I genuinely loved it. It was very soft.
Today Gatecrashers published an interview with Leah Williams. You can find it here: https://supersons.libsyn.com/x-factoring-with-leah-williams
I transcribed everything that was said about Daken:
...
They worked together in X-Men Blue, but I agree that it doesn't seem to justify a remark like that.
Fantastic! I missed this news completely, thank you for the transcription! I'm really intrigued.

Lineart from David Baldeon on Twitter.
You could be right that he did it just to investigate in Mojoworld. But I do think that they're setting up Aurora's death to be a larger mystery. In this issue Northstar ask what she was even doing...
Prediction time! (with spoilers from X-Factor #2)
With Akihiro omitting to mention to the rest of the team that Aurora had been seeing a man for a week at the motel, and now with his crashing...
Not to brag, but my theory about Daken being depressed is now correct, per Word of God :D I'm just so stoked that Leah decided to engage with my tweet, she's being so secretive about the plot!
AKA...
Someone just asked David Baldeon on twitter and he said that it's a "characterization point" and "he'll let it play out in the book and hope it comes through as clear as possible".
I'm intrigued! I...
They have this tendency to draw him running around shirtless. My biggest complain is the beef-ication, though; I thought it would make sense in context but... it doesn't.
Ok, why is no one commenting? (and there's no thread for the issue, it's criminal)
Daken was AMAZING. I especially loved the moments of kindness Leah teased in the interview, beautifully illustrated...
Thank you! It's from Kevin Wada's Paper X-Men series. He did something like eight Daken variations, I think.
And then I slapped the ace flag behind him :cool:
I've transcribed the bit concerning Daken:
BattleOfTheAtom: One of the characters I was most surprised by is one that I have never really been able to like, in fact I think I said on the show...
Leah Williams has good things to say about our boy!
AIPT: Alright, cover your ears, Daken fans (or eyes, I guess)… TD Mollusk (@sirbriang2) said, let’s face facts: Daken is the worst. Just the...
Johnny Storm. Johnny's the one. I'm still hoping we'll get the tiniest nod to that in the last X-Men/FF issue.
I'm uhhhh not so sure about this one. Let's wait for the finished piece though! I do like his hair.
Beautiful cover, but Daken's really unrecognizable! If not for the claws I'd have known it was him only by process of elimination.
I got the impression they were guarding the gates, but you're right, it might be foreshadowing too.
Our boy had a brief cameo in X-Men #7! I wonder what he was doing, it looks like he's guarding the gates.93750
We don't talk about Uncanny X-Force :D
Anyway, digging the new costume, not so much the beard. It reminds me of his depressive episode in Wolverines.
I'm not sure it would have been a great idea to send Daken to the FF, it's true they have a history but he also attacked them at the end of Williams' run. Laura would have been a better option.
I'd...
That's a rare Daken/Johnny from turcafinweart! That artist, one of the best Daken artists imho, usually pairs him with Bullseye.
This is great news. Can't wait!
It seems even the X-writers are ignoring it, so I'd say we're good to go. (even though I loved that Logan didn't see Daken as a villain in that mindscape).
The X-Force group shot is strange...
Not necessarily. I agree one could go in that direction, but one also could not.
