I hope so! I think they're doing a good job right now with all the X-Men seminal moments videos they've released, Jonathan Hickman appears on the last one.

And hopefully he'll give better answers than JDW does.

Now X-Monday isn't mandatory. So it's good anyone at the X-Office does them for us at all. It can just sometimes be frustrating at what's considered spoilers & what's not. For example asking "When does _ appear next?" That's spoiler that won't get answered, but I don't see how it's anymore a spoiler than preview images showing certain characters.

They're not mandatory, but they allow those who give them to have some control over the fan narrative of what's going on, they avoid complaints about lack of information, and to some extent they help sales. X-Office gets things out of it too, perhaps more than what fans get.

Yes, the questions allows them to see what fans are thinking- for example, last week you had pretty much every other question about Emma on Twitter had people complaining about recent use of her and the possibility of her becoming a villain, unless they're willingly blind, they had to notice that.

it's Emma fans. X-monday doesn't represent all x-men fans

Of course, but if they didn't want a sample from it they wouldn't have people asking questions. Apart from Jean stans/Emma haters and people who want every story to be like the 80's because "NOSTALGIA", no one wants Emma as a villain again.

If it fits the story people will eat it up, I don't think majority really cares that deeply about her. IvX was just a ride for people outside of CBR

Eh, she does have a big fan base, not Storm or Cyclops level of course but she's a quite popular character regardless. And most of the reviews and opinions I have read of IvX outside of CBR agree that it was hot garbage, not only for Emma but for literally everyone involved, including the reader.

I really don't saw all this complaining outside of CBR
