As two slightly older former cops, I would think Banshee and Bishop might have a lot in common.
He's had a few moments here and there, which is not the same as being "wallpaper" and given what the trajectory of the lead characters...Kate and Emma...i never expected him to drive the plot significantly. (Same can be said of Storm.) As a Bishop fan I'm content that he is being used even if it's not to his fullest potential and capacity.
Lord Ewing *Praise His name! Uplift Him in song!* Your divine works will be remembered and glorified in worship for all eternity. Amen!
But he's not being used. The man hasn't had a single arc or even a hint of a character arc in 20 issues. The only thing of note he's done was become Kate's Knight whatever the heck that means because Duggam didn't bother to define what that role means at all lol I mean heck he wasn't even there to beat up Shaw.
I actually really enjoy Maurauders I enjoy the character interactions but Duggan definitely dropped the ball with Iceman and Bishop. I think we are long overdue for a character focused issue on both of these characters.
Percy did a really good job with QQ over in X-Force something like that would be appreciated.

But is Bishop slightly older? I had always thought he was, but Age of X was the last sighting of that version of Bishop. Since HoX he does not look a day older than thirty, and that is even pushing it a bit.
I was sure he had been resurrected and rebooted off panel and convinced that this would be followed up in Marauders. But nope.
I would like to see a X-Men blue like book, with Bishop in the lead and the X-men I feel he would click better with: Kwannon, Rogue, Gambit and Jubilee. Maybe Banshee too.
I was walking thru the grocery store today and I could have sworn I saw Bishop's face on the back of a carton of milk.
It said he was missing or something.
He was mentioned on X-corp today. He indicated neal Shaara to be board members of X-corp, because both are Energy manipulators.
That is it, looks like Neal didn't made into board membership for now
