Got to say I am amped for all these books. It’s been a long time since an announced X-men line has had this much story potential. It’s exciting to see Marvel investing in the X-men again.

X-Force : Besides Sage, nothing interests me there.
Fallen angels : Same without Sage.
Excalibur : Interesting concept, weird that there's no original Excalibur member.
Marauders : have some of my favs. The concept doesn't seem in sync with the direction of the books though. Teaasing me with a Dauterman cover is BAD, Marvel. GIVE HIM AN XBOOK ! A Deadpool writer/artist combo seem weird for this book.
X-men : made me laugh. Give us Gillen's Uncanny back.
New Mutants: looks cool. I wonder what happen to Monet, Sam and Paige in HoX though.
Not to mention him being the son of her dad's sworn rival. That in itself opens up a lot of interesting possibilities. I'm more interested on how they'll interact, will they be friendly? Or have the animosity their fathers have for each other? A lot of interesting things can happen with the son of Cyclops and Daughter of Wolverine.
No Dazzler. No M. No Frenzy. I'm honestly kinda heartbroken. See the boards in 2020 I guess...
Dazzler, M, Synch, Polaris... I knew so many of my favorites probably wouldn't make it but...
Aside from New Mutants with the Demon Bear throwback vibe, these are the most puzzling line ups of all time. I'm so confused with what these teams represent. I guess a shake up is good and glad people are excited, but Milligan and Allred will be putting out the only book in which I have confidence.

Excited about, in order:
1. Excalibur
2. Marauders
3. New Mutants
4. Fallen Angels
Don’t care quite yet:
5. X-Force
6. X-Men
I’ll try them all except for Fallen Angels. Not even Laura can entice me to buy that one.
X-Force is probably my most anticipated actually, as I think it’s an interesting take on the old black ops X-book. And X-men should be good, as long as that isn’t the actual cast. Vulcan, WiFi, Corsair... sorry, they all make the Summers family so needlessly complex and ridiculous. I can’t take them seriously. Especially WiFi. Bring real Cable back please. The other books I’ll give a shot.
I'm pretty surprised that someone is dedicated to writing Corsair and Vulcan. WiFi can still be turned into a good character possibly.
But seriously, this is why Scott shouldn't handpick.

There’s very little that can be done with WiFi to make him interesting. For one thing, he’s stuck in a loop. He can’t alter that loop or he alters the timeline. This means he must go back to the future, grow up, come back and do all the things his older self did in the past, and then ultimately die at his own hands. He’s basically stuck. I suppose they can give his younger self relationships with the modern day team that we, the readers, never knew he had previously. But that’s about it.
Scott is handing out the royalty titles. Wolverine is court jester and Vulcans unborn child will probably be here.
X-Empire
That X-men cover explains why Hickman was griping on Twitter about continuity in the X-books. Ha. I prefer to ignore so much about the ridiculous Summers clan. Scott’s father is a space pirate, his forgotten brother is a ridiculously powered cosmic character, his daughter and son are from the future, with the latter having been not only birthed by a clone of Jean, but he also killed his older self recently. Jesus.
