Hopefully we'll get a killer Polaris/Magneto team up.

I'm extremely optimistic given Polaris' #3 placement in that list (although it could just be a visual thing and not meaningful)

I actually think that the Orchis agents saying "Oh Shit" at the end of the preview, the thing they are seeing is Magneto and Polaris floating above them with a million tons of metal floating around them. I know that would scare the heck out of me if I was a mutant hating terrorist.
We are MUTANT..Krakoa, FOREVER!!! “Liberté, Égalité, Fraternité”
The steel bends in if you notice so its a pretty good guess.
Lorna and Magneto haven't had a good fight together in a very long time. Probably the closest that one would consider to good was their fight with the Avengers on Genosha, but various factors including editor commentary, Magneto a bit too Silver Age and Lorna not speaking enough held that one down. The one issue here is the fight so far seems shall we say unbalanced. We will see if the base has something to even the odds. Hopefully Hickman brings the philosophy into this one.

haha, Erik will try to be a good dad and ask Lorna if she wants to handle it by herself or if she wants him to help take out the entire Orchis facility. I would love that if he steps back a bit and lets Lorna take point, that would be a nice characterization for them both.

I'm taking that placement as either completely random, or characters that are only really "guest starring" in the issue getting a higher spot than most of the regulars to highlight they're a "guest star."
Anyway, piece of work here that I believe is fanart. Haven't seen anything to suggest it's not. The idea is these characters as the Acolytes. Posted by jessebedlam on Tumblr.

That fanart is fantastic. I've always wanted to see them depict Polaris, and they did a wonderful job here. Love the new look, and this team. Would be awesome to see something like this!
I'm loving that, it's an amazing sense of action as though they stepped out of the portal and are trying to "wow " and "shock" whomever they encounter with the weight of their presence
Exodus and Lorna mostly sell it for me but Frenzy looks pretty tough too
Nightcrawler is a bit of an odd inclusion for an Acolytes team but at least this is the RED costume version, complete with facial hair
Who is the dude in the middle though?

As an Acolytes team it’s a good idea, but they would need a new ethos and mission statement or at least something to set them apart. It would be nice to see Lorna winning over Exodus and/or working with him in GoT fashion to try to move two seasons of the council into the HoM camp.

Well the team on X-Men isn't the ongoing roster, so the Summers family will only be there for like a story arc and then the roster will change, so none of those characters listed are regulars on the book last I knew...

As this post points out, Lorna has gotten along better with Magneto than he has with the Maximoffs.
