    Default Is Jonathan Hickman taking over?

    There's an interesting teaser in today's Marvel comics.



    Oliver Sava thinks this confirms that Jonathan Hickman is taking over as writer, which has been rumored for a while.

    If so, I'm really looking forward to it, given his impressive runs on Fantastic Four and X-Men. It's about time for X-Men to have something similarly ambitious.
    Sincerely,
    Thomas Mets

    I'm not buying anything the X-Line is currently producing, not with any regularity. Jonathan Hickman would likely insure the continuation of that.

    I don't think it's likely to happen though, that rumor comes and goes every six months. I don't know what the ad is indicative of.
    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.

    This rumour pops up at least twice a year and it's not going to happen.

    Amusing to see the reactions like this now that DoX is upon us.

    To be fair I think most of us had lost faith in X-Men editorial once they decided to do a AU event focusing on X-Man

    True. Some fans were so full of certitude, like nothing but the truth could come out of their "predictions"... It's quite amusing, I agree.

    Yeah it has been mostly great, a couple of really nice surprises.

    X Force is my number one book, then Marauders, X Men is up there but a couple of really dodgy issues brought it down a notch.

    Half of New Mutants is good too, disappointed with the other half and with Excalibur. Fallen Angels was pretty but failed to hit the right beats.

    yeah especially since we now know that Hickman's run was in development long before we got confirmation

    I’m not against Hickman taking over but I want the Age of X-Man talent to have had an impact first.

    Hickman on X-Books is like wandering through the desert on the verge of anti-alive and seeing the oasis, but then you get there and it's always just a mirage hiding uhhhh, a Pepsi machine.

    Are you sure you don’t mean an RC Cola machine?

    Hickman would be interesting on an X-book, but at this point after multiple “Is Hickman taking over” rumors, I don’t care too much.
