    Hickman made it clear that there would be an unexpected writer in charge of Moira's solo.

    If possible, I hope Storm, Emma and Jean can get solo.

    Donny Cates answered question on twitter that if he could pick one X-Men character to write a solo series for, he would choose Gambit. I want my Gambit solo with Cates as writer!

    any these, too! we need more x-women solos...seeing as the 3 of them are pretty much already pulling double duty it'd be cool if someone who wasn't currently on a lineup got their own book but no one with enough selling power is coming to mind rn aside from Ali

    Fallen Angels was pretty much a Kwannon solo

    I think Magik could hold her own

    We also had this from Hickman at C2E2. Wow, February feels so very long ago.

    Last question - Xavier solo book?
    Hickman: We're not going to announce books we're doing down the line, but there's obvious books we haven't solicited. Why aren't we doing a Moira book, for example? That's coming soon.

    I would love to see this!

    I also think Storm is overdue for a strong solo book.

    I need a storm solo that heavily features Jean or vice versa. Writers always emphasize their sisterly relationship yet they hardly get to spend time together. I want to seem them go on fun adventures.

    It would be awesome if the end of Giant Size X-men: Storm leads into a new Jean and Storm ongoing

    In regards to Storm. There's rumors floating around that Storm might get a Solo Book.
    2 Writers:
    Ta-Nehasi Coates the writer for Black Panther
    and
    Eve Ewing the writer for Ms. Marvel, Ironheart and Marvel Event "Outlawed" are battling each other for the chance to write a Storm Book. And Jen Bartel said she wants to draw Storm.

    Coates!I wish it could be him!

    As for the other writer, She may have a gender advantage in the race...However,if it was her, I'd rather not have...

    We've seen in the past that its very difficult for anybody outside of Wolverine to maintain an ongoing solo series. Cable, Storm, Cyclops, Gambit, Nightcrawler etc. have all had them over the years, but the current Marvel climate makes it very hard for books to run for much longer than 12-18 issues, and it seems writers struggle with how to write X-Men when they don't have their peers around.

    I think Magik, Betsy & Ororo probably have the best chance of it working, provided they have really solid creative teams. They've often had big character arcs within a wider title, but a solo title dedicated to them is something else entirely. Jean, Emma & Rogue come close, and could probably make it work, but I would argue that a lot of their strengths as characters comes from their relationships and interactions with others.

    All that said, an X-Men focus/spotlight series with solo arcs, or even one-shots, could work really well. That's why I was really excited for Giant Size X-Men, even if the execution wasn't quite what I'd been expecting

    Interesting, especially since Claremont and Marvel have supposedly been tight-lipped about an unknown project written by Claremont that would possibly come out this year. Hmmmm...
