Will we see Wave Two at NYCC 2019?

[Jackraow21]

Give him Wolverine

Seconded. That would be great.

Claremont deserves a title. His X-Treme were best of three.

I am sure that his X book won`t be part of Dawn of X.

False, X-Treme was easily the worst. Nothing he’s done since his initial run on the X-Men has been good.

And no one deserves anything. Claremont needs to move on. The only positive I can see coming from a Claremont/Larocca mini is that it would be an AU that pulls Larocca off of that Dr. Doom book that I would be reading if he weren’t drawing it.

It’s wild to me that this man can occasionally come in, write some half assed drivel, talk shit about every creator after him (except for Whedon), and somehow still has enough clout to ruin a new direction for the line.

Just different tastes and opinions.

I don't think Claremont is capable of 'ruining' the new line now no matter what he does. He is relegated to ancillary books. Even X-Treme, which was not good, was relatively inconsequential. The tragedy of it was that despite his love for Storm, etc. and past good works he kept key characters like her from being utilized by Morrison.

His worst work is easily X-Men Forever, or Die by the Sword, or New Excalibur, or some of the tail end of X-Treme with Arena. Or that X-Women book! I actually think his UXM Reload run has some fun stuff amidst the bad. And I have a perverse fondness for Revolution despite its multitude of sins. But hey, at his worst he is still bursting with more new ideas than most of what we see in mediocre line relaunches - which I don't think Dawn of X is, for the record.

So, CrushingComics on twitter said this in a discord we’re both in: People with inside information have tipped that we're not getting more than 1-2 small/expected announcements of new X-books rather than a bombshell.

Makes sense at this point, what's there to reveal when Wave 1 hasn't started and POX not even wrapped up?

I guess they'll show us what this month's solicits will reveal anyway in a few weeks.

Maybe these are Weapon X(Plus) and X-Cellent.

[bigstupidjellyfish]

I don’t know if X-Cellents counts as Dawn of X, but I’m sure it’ll be there. Ayala and Williams might have their stuff announced or maybe a second Hickman title.

He told me in person that Whedon's run "kicked ass" (but that he was mad that he was never invited to be a writer on Buffy (the show) because Whedon stole all his ideas).

From Newsarama's Marvel Fanfare panel transcription just now:

A fan lauds Hickman's House of X and Powers of X. Cebulski agrees and says they could not be happier with the direction of the book. Claremont says he doesn't read any of the current X-Men books. He confirms that he never read Whedon's X-Men. He'll only read the work if he's coming back to the book.

Ohhh Claremont

[TOTALITY]

Also the panel ended with no announcement of anything new from Claremont, though Cebulski teased there will be something in 2020. (Didn't specify if it was X-related, though I think it's safe to assume it definitely won't be Dawn of X related)

haha, the fact that Claremont doesn't have a clue what is happening currently tells me he would be awful at continuity. Let him write small one offs and mini's about the 70's and 80's for nostalgia and keep him off current continuity. Or if they give him a current book, give him something like Exiles which goes to alternate universes, then he could mess around as much as he likes without messing with Dawn of X.

He saved Rogue, dude deserve more recognition on his work. His dialog still miles better than Morrison and austen

hahaa exactly What I expected

Lol this is a hot take.

I doubt that they will announce second Hickman book without Hickman. Will see soon.

[powerpax]

Claremont's dialogue was wonderfully rich for its time and place. That is not really now, to say the least.
