Captain, in Order to build a better world, sometimes means tearing the old one down... And that makes enemies.
Huh? What makes you think of Superboy when talking about Hellion?
I sent him a tweet earlier suggesting he have a word with Jordan D White, whose X-Men Monday feature on AIPT last week basically told us Dust would be a Champion. The only thing he didn't do was name the book - but it wasn't one of his, which made it obvious. Zub made all that effort to keep it a surprise, only for the X office to blab.

Jordan D White and Tom Brevoort seem very similar in character.
I know they are saying what they're saying in a humorous way but it come across a bit too trollish and taunting sometimes.
Those AIPT interviews are x-actly like the old x-positions, always leaving me more irritated than excited, I'm gonna start deliberately avoiding them.
Good to know they're not all point fillers. The Cuckoos appeared to function more as a team if you had three or more of them, but I haven't seen the dials/cards for the others.
I used to know the rules back when it was just a Mage Knight offshoot, but in the years between dropping the game as a kid, and picking it up again as an adult.... It's a different animal. Even if the old figures were compatible with the newer expansions the numbers are so much higher.
The next X-Men event should be inspired by the results of a HeroClix match between two people who aren't entirely clear on the rules.
Also, I had to resist a lot of temptation earlier today. My LCS had a sale on Clix boosters. Buy two, get one free. Couldn't really justify buying two however.
Continuity, even in a "shared" comics universe is often insignificant if not largely detrimental to the quality of a comic.

Nobody cares about what you don't like, they barely care about what you do like.
Hm. I feel like we aren't as excited about Dust being on a new team as we should be.
I'm excited to see Dust and Ms Marvel finally interact and possibly Dust getting to talk to Cyclops during WotR.
I commented on the other thread, it's cool. Dust can have interesting chemistry with Kamala and always had a good relationship with Scott, so it can also be interesting in WotR. Champions is a good place for her

I really appreciated how the narration played up how are inspiring Dust's powers can be when she really lets loose.
I feel like writers think of her as a dime store Sandman, which is true in its own way, but I think of her as more specialized.
Sandstorms are terrifying, and the speed that she would need to move each of her particles in order to flay the skin off of people makes it even scarier.
Sooraya and Kamala is a great opportunity that I hope gets utilised well, considering they are Muslim representation in different ways. Apart from the awkward "Family Drama" gaffe, it was a promising intro for Dust and I'm looking forward to seeing her dynamics with the rest of the Champions.
