I like what they did in the SWORD solicitation... what with the Imperial Guard being a knock-off of the Legion of Superheroes.

Is it me or are X-Men's (like the actual X-Men-titled book... can we go back to calling it adjectiveless?) solicits always terribly boring? I'm fine as long as Duggan keeps bringing quality writing, mind you, but the Marvel people who write these solicits could probably make it all sound more exciting.

Also, I'm over the moon we're getting Segovia back on Hellions and Reis back on New Mutants. I thought we had lost them both forever.

Can you do a scooper deep dive investigation on Excalibur?

Will it a get a new artist or writer ? Will it refresh after Inferno?

[Frobisher]

Shame about Way Of X and New Mutants, which are clearly among the stronger titles. Hard to say whether Marvel or retailers are more to blame for not getting the word out on those.

[RamaBird]

Any news on Vita and what will happen to New Mutants cast?

That's really the only book ending that I don't want it to end.

So exactly what is your proof of any of this?

No idea about the other stuff, but BP #1 was officially announced as being pushed back to November about a week or so ago. That places #3 in January, though, unlike what Bishop66 said.

Lethal Legion was from avengers #676. Mentacle a member of them was last seen in SWORD #6. Looks to be an ALL NEW team of them coming in SWORD.

Fantastic. Love me some new villains and I love that Mentacle is a convict, serving two standard years of diplomatic service lol

[Master of Sound]

I think the Lethal Legion might be something like Storm's own Imperial Guard, that is what I thought.

[Psycwave]

Excalibur
X-Men
S.W.O.R.D.

The dream team!
