I am ITCHING for Cable to get into this mix. My mind is racing and I feel like Qwerty, all f$%^'d up in my undees and writing all these potential happenings on the wall
. As the book fleshes out the story I'd love to see:
- Broken Magneto = Good Storm + Mags interaction to help him determine what he wants to do for his people with a council who is more aligned to his style of...fixing sh$%. I want to see him find his way by going to Phobos and giving Feilong and all the humans/tech there the beat down of their lives and kicking them off the moon (if not flat out killing them). Earning the respect of the Arakkii and taking a seat at Table of Night on The Great Ring.
- Cable = Remains head of SWORD Station II but he is investigating wtf happened in SWORD #11. I want to see him find uncover Brand's deception and take her own/out, and becomes the head of SWORD. At the same time I want to see him leverage the T-O virus in a way that makes him a key player against Orchis + gives him a new look.
- Storm = Remains Regent of Arakko/Voice of Sol System - Storm finds a new path/purpose for the mutants of Arakko, decides and manages the course of the planets role in the Sol System, and how it will be protected. I want her to choose who would join Magneto at the Table of Night, and to work with Cable to establish new galactic X-Force style teams on SWORD. I want a showdown with Orbis Stellaris. I think Ewing planted the seed that Orbis studied Storm and I think, whoever is in that orb, makes an interesting rogue for Storm. She's an experience diplomat and I'd like to see her use her own strategic thinking on how to leverage relations with the Shiar, Wakanda, etc. that would improve mutant relations and set the foundation for 'peaceful' co-existence
I haven't followed Sunspot in a long time to know if he'd be an ally to this cast or truly committed to his own desires, even if it made him an enemy. Interested to see what he adds to the mix.
Either way I am loving this creative team and am super excited for this book.
