Really interested in seeing both professor x and legion back will have an influence from the TV show I wonder?
I really think they should keep Gold and Blue so we can have a team focused books and have Uncanny be your grand soap opera ongoing with revolving plots and characters. New Mutants can be the new school book while you phase out Gen X, end Iceman and continue his story in Uncanny, and send the O5 on their way to be gone forever.
No big surprises here if all these rumours are confirmed. Definitely keen on a New Mutants title and about time they brought back Legion!
I think I could be happy with 2 bi-weekly X-Men titles, New Mutants, a new X-Force to replace Weapon X + the Wolverine and Deadpool as solos. Realistically, very little else can sustain an ongoing for long and even a third X-Men book, even if monthly, would stretch the line too thin. I wish they would just stick to the books that can actually keep going beyond 12 issues and focus on long-term quality storytelling with a small and stable group of writers and possibly artists as well.
"The X-men are back at the forefront of the Marvel Universe..."
Why weren't they before, it's a popular franchise, and they didn't even have a panel geez...
Oh and I almost forgot... the actual GREAT news in all this is that the X-Men have a panel of their own at NYCC! I remember the time when there was an X-panel at every single comicbook-related event and I couldn't wait to read the report on CBR or Newsarama... those were the days.
I am over crossovers and ones with Legion warping reality at that. Hopefully it is not the former or the latter.
Cool for New Mutants...hopefully it is the movie cast. Agree that four main X-Books seems bloated and increasingly concerned for Gn X.
Looking forward to more Legion news.
Will we finally have a team of young mutant heroes that the fans expected? Will the cast be the same as the movie because of synergy issues? What will become of GX?
Uncanny's return is good news if it's true but what does it mean? Jean or Logan as leaders? What about Gold and Kitty?
Why have Blue and Gold stilll around with the existence of Astonishing and Uncanny? And 50 bucks that editorial forgets Blindfold exists during Legion's event.
Right.
IDK everyday X-Editorial ignores their pretty lengthy fanbase that loves their NXM + writers and artists who will gladly work the title, that is another day lost.
Merge GOLD into Astonishing. Have that be the more fun adventure type book.
End BLUE and send them home. Maybe leave Jean as the new Lady Stryfe.
Bring back Uncanny and New Mutants. Uncanny can have the main players of Jean Xavier Logan and Storm. Cyclops stays dead for another year.
New Mutants should NOT replace GENX. They are different ages. GENX should be saved even with low sales.
Replace Weapon X with XFORCE.
Don't go over the top with Legion. Have it be more of a trippy personal story.
Logan and All New Wolverine can be solos. Emma Frost should get a 12 issue series. At the end, she gets added to Uncanny along Cyclops.

Happy that Uncanny could be coming back, and I'm hoping Jean will be involved with in this title. Hopefully this time the X-office will put a larger focus on the X-teams and not as many solos. Would love to see the return of X-Force and X-Factor with New Mutants.
