We know Brisson can't get away with shelving the main team. Cause Cebulski would stab him if he did anything to his girls magik and mirage.

I think its shady that they gave Brisson a stealth NextGen kids book by promoting it as a Hickman New Mutant title
^was thinking the saaame thing. Thats alot of characters that are gonna be taking up panel time.
LOL, they said it was Brisson's book and that Hickman was shepherding it and writing the first arc from day 1.
I think it is extremely unlikely the book will drop the NMs and become a Glob Herman Show. Hickman is very involved in these books and has said the New Mutants are important to him. We also don't even know who the secondary team is, and y'all are jumping to "the New Mutants are out, it's Glob time"? This reminds me of that "Emma is the villain of Marauders" crap.
I hope what ends up happening is that the title is used as what is effectively a backdoor pilot for another book and that either the classic NM or the Academy X kids get their own title by Brisson in Wave 2. Honestly, as adults, the New Mutants shouldn't be New Mutants. They should just graduate to something more accurate, like X-Factor.
So... Brisson and whoever on New Mutants ft the Academy kids and then either Hickman or Brisson and Reis on X-Factor with the classic NM.

Yes and most of this youth consists of Academy X through Wolverine and the X-men kids. You are fooling yourself if the team wont be made up of them
Didnt even think of this but are the New Mutants, New Mutants in this book? In Zeb's book, they were all considered X-men and NM was merely the title
I don't think the secondary team will replace the NM, but if anyone thinks that the secondary team won't be Glob and the crew then you are definitely kidding yourself.

I've said this before, but I agree. I understand it for branding/sales purposes and because of Hickman's love for the OG group, but I wish they had both new uniforms and a new name. I hope the book will make it very clear the OGs are a different unit not to be seen as the junior squad.
I'm ultimately fine with the uniforms. I can seriously dig a blue/black and gold ensemble uniform, and the ones that we're seeing here look great (for that matter, they looked good in Dead Souls too and I wish Illyana had gotten a redesign). But... I don't think they should be called the New Mutants. Make them X-Factor. It's a team name that selled with a bunch of characters that have decent fanbases.
