We haven't seen Nightcrawler I wonder where he works better on this book or in Excalibur?

1) this is my favourite lineup so far. I hope Kitty and Emma have their Astonishing X-Men dynamic. Also Storm, Bobby and Bishop are here and that's super nice.
2) It is by far the most interesting concept. They look like the more aggressive team of the books lineup and the Hellfire Trading Company funding them is such a cool idea, I hope we see some big money moves from Emma and it's something similar to what we saw in Aaron's Thor with all the main Marvel rich people interacting.
3) Duggan is great. He gets character voices so well and Uncanny Avengers was amazing.
4) I hope it's new Pyro, so this team can get even gayer lol
Another character I'd add other than Pyro would have been Angelica "Firestar" Jones. She needs some spotlight and her history with Emma is as f-ed up as Storm, Kate's and Bobby's. Plus they need another flyer and likable character. The snark between Kate and Emma can only go too far.
Forget that, add both Northstar and Firestar, dammit!!!!
Storm, Bishop, Iceman, and Emma are solid characters that I'd love to read, especially written by Gerry Duggan, but I'm on the fence about this one mostly because I'm really tired of Kitty Pryde. And why is she wearing so much Clown White on her face?
I agree that Firestar would be a much better addition than Pyro, whether he's Bobby's new love interest or the original.
Pirate theme and no Nightcrawler? Blasphemy!
I'll most likely give it the first issue to grab me.

I think this team has the potential for many fun interactions while packing quite a punch when it comes to action, I like the different power sets and what they can bring to the table. Pyro is the only one I don't really care that much, I'm guessing this is going to be nu-Pyro to have more interactions with Bobby? Which I'm OK with but I'm not gonna lie I would've loved if we got some other characters like Kurt or Rogue instead of him.
Aside from that this is the team I'm most excited for, I can even live with Kitty leading other capable Mutants like Storm, Emma or Bobby if and just if they all get their chance to shine and we get amazing team dynamics and this doesn't turn into the Kitty show with everyone taking naps like on Gold.
Oh, and give Kitty a new outfit for the love of God. You have Storm rocking her amazing Red costume, Emma with two new great costumes and then for some reason Kitty is stuck with that and Jean decides her Marvel Girl outfit is worth taking down from the attic.

After Gold, seeing Kitty front and center is more then enough for me to pass on a book. Not excited.
Sad that Storm is there.
Definitely here for Bobby more than anyone else. There are a lot of folks on this team he has a good vibe with (assuming this in nu-Pyro. Otherwise, St John is the odd man out) and I'd definitely like to see more of his and Bishop's buddy cop dynamic. And more of Christian Frost if he can show up as a support character, come to think of it.
Why is "Captain Kate Pryde" drawn like a 10 year old child?
