    Gladiator has the throne. Deathbird can rule through Xandra (love the name!) if she isn't of age yet. I think Deathbird, Cerise, and Oracle are more concerned about not having Gladiator as a dictator/tyrant.

    would this be considered Xandra's first appearance or would the egg be her first appearance?

    It looked like Gladiator was working with Oracle and Cerise. Maybe he's tired of being in charge, lol.

    Looked like he gave oracle an order and she telepathically told Cerise so she wouldn't be overheard.

    Yeah, it's like Lifeguard and her brother. It was hinted they were Deathbird's children too, right?

    Wouldn't hold your breath. KT has said the Xtreme X-Men run wasn't her favorite. But her being the continuity junky that she is, I won't say it's out of the question. As for the connection Death bird may or may not have to Lifeguard and Slipstream, if that was Claremonts intention then I blame the editor for not catching that. I was under the assumption that they were supposed to be the custodians of the universe.

    Lifeguard had Shi'Ar royal markings, but beyond that, nothing was explicitly determined. They could be D'Ken's, Deathbirds, or perhaps some other distant Shi'Ar royals we don't know much about.
    Let the flames destroy all but that which is pure and true!

    I'll never understand the mentality that anything Claremont created needs to be upheld and continued by other writers as if his writing is the only continuity. Writers should be able to use their own ideas and not be forced to use certain characters in stories if they don't want to.

    There are a lot of Claremont fans here that are religiously devout to his writing, but the man himself has said repeatedly he would do things differently on certain subjects.

    I'm glad neither of them are in this book. They don't need to be.

    I think we're pretty much saying the same thing. Gladiator has the throne bc Lilandra is dead and has no heir. This kid is Lilandra's heir and the rightful claim to the throne. Thats why Deathbird needs her. She's key in usurping power from Gladiator

    Xandra hides somewhere on Earth with Cerise being her bodyguard and Shi'ar royal etiquette teacher along with Lifeguard as another bodyguard and also student to Cerise. Over the years Xandra slowly gains her own "Imperial Guard" consisting of friends she makes over time. Her guard would consist of random X and Marvel characters she befriends through time (Storm, Shogo, Kwannon, Hepzibah,Watersnake, Broo, M-Twins and Avengers Academy students).

    Maybe they all even hideout with the Starjammers and she is raised by space pirates and Shi'ar bodyguards.

    Just a question to everyone. Who do you think both Lilandra and Xavier would trust to raise their child. I would personally say Storm. Your thoughts?

    Forgot X is alive. Should he go claim his genetically engineered daughter like a man?

    I’m really enjoying this book. Does anyone know if this is going to continue as an ongoing, or is it being rebooted after Disassembled?
