    Storm will probably show up. The covers are showing different characters. She'll probably be saved for a later issue, or may still be in early ones despite not getting the cover just yet.

    HoX shows Scott, Logan, Jean, Angel, and Monet. But that may not be the entire team. If even a team at all. The minis may focus on variety of characters rather than everyone being on teams.

    Hold your horses. She may not be black in this mini. Lol We ain't seen interiors yet. The cover makes it hard to tell, but she doesn't look too dark.

    While I'm not going to begrudge creator's their take, it's a side issue at best.

    It's Hickman. The guy's work speaks for itself.

    I have never seen Marvel staff and talent all come together to universally fellate product to this degree. Thin, crisp wafers often eaten with cheese will never be the same after Hickman's done.

    Well, if Warren, Kurt, and Illyana are featured (and Rachel, I think....)I guess they have an idea on what to do with 60+ X-Men nowadays (as opposed to most of the Original Team leaving while Cyclops leads against Count Nefaria or Erik the Red)......and Toad on the team again? And Sabertooth? Now I really have to know how this is playing out......(though no Juggernaut, Havok, Multiple Man, Mirage, Karma, Colossus, Iceman, Beast, Storm, Rogue, Gambit, Bishop, Forge.....J

    Why? X-men is relaunching and Powers of 10 and House of X is just a story it is fine ,If Storm and other some X-men aren't front and center in one story. Powers of 10 and House of X are just Disassemble and Age of X-man writer by a great writer meaning that in way just like those two thing it really does not matter .It is books that come next that do. I have zero worries about not see any characters in those two books. The X-men are going relaunch their is going to be a flagship book and some other books and there is going to be a second wave of books.Those are where people should be worried about seeing characters

    One of the common mistakes people seem to make - and one that the comics industry has nurtured for decades, including Marvel - is thinking that there are limited roles available and fans of characters must fight with each other to secure them. Especially minority characters. There's plenty of "there can be only one black woman at a time," but seems there's rarely "why are there 20 different white men headlining books simultaneously?" I think progress for the medium will require abolishing that kind of thinking.

    That's a long way of saying I agree with you, while adding my own views to the mix.

    LOL.
    Sooooo. this has been planned "since last summer" but he included thanks for the creators involved with the color coded X-Men titles? Considering all of those titles were planned and released way before the meetings for the new Hix Men titles were taking place, it seems odd that they were part of grand design that was coming. It also seems very dishonest the way disassembled and the latest relaunch was handled, since they were basically lying to their fan base regarding it being a new direction for the series since it was basically filler to kill time till Hickman was ready. I don't know why I have the feeling that very little if anything at all of the stuff published in the last year will be important or a contributing piece to Hickman relaunch. Hopefully the new direction is worth all of this.

    They could have just kept the coloured books Blue, Yellow and Red running another six months if the plan was always to lead up to Hickman's big-crunch/big-bang. The weird fake relaunch of Disassembled feels like maybe Hixmen took longer than expected, or an edict came from above to delay it 'til July.

    Exactly. Disassembled seems even more pointless in hindsight then while we reading it LOL. 5+ months of Age of X is also obviously a way to buy some time for the new run.

    Yeah, would be easier to just reshuffle the cast a bit, and with the 05 leaving, Blue could have easily be Cyclops book' (that or maybe even Red), while Wolverine goes to Gold.
