Gabby is NOT surprising, given that the writer is Tom Taylor, who write All New Wolverine.
As for the O5 and numerous other classic X-Men I get the feeling that they were and are off limits due to being in other titles. It's pure luck that Taylor got Kurt, probably, since it seems like Guggenheim was writing him out anyway.

I don't know much about Gentle, but I'm pretty intrigued by Namor.
Not gonna lie though, disappointed by Gabby being here. She makes sense with Laura, but they could've given her space to someone else.
Ah. So obviously, there's going to be ponytailicia and an emu. Not sure about the what I assume is a genie with three fingers or what looks like a small wolverine with two claws yet.
So glad it's some new characters Jean gets to interact with and form new relationships with instead of the same old people.
Eh... don’t really care about Namor, Gentle and the Wolverinas. But at least Kurt is there.
So are two characters going to be revealed each day like Astonishing was?
I’ve just published my very first work on ‘Archive of Our Own’, under the same name as here. It is the first chapter of ‘I Am My Own Best Friend ~ An Emma Frost Road Trip’, which focuses on Emma between the events of IvX and Secret Empire, including the White Queen going on a road trip, to try and have fun!

I hope you enjoy it as much I did writing it!
