That page from Inferno lives rent free in my mind. Ewing writing the book would be great and perhaps the Children try to target Arakko and bring them face to face with the A family.

Krakoa, Arakko, and Otherworld forever!
I'm a little late, but I've been left cold by the announcements for Realm of X, Astonishing Iceman and Dark X-Men. I didn't expect to have much interest in the first two, but I'm particularly disappointed in the latter because I hoped to be excited for it. Unfortunately, pretty much everything about it hits the wrong beat for me. I don't like Maddie and Havok's relationship; I don't like how Havok has been portrayed over the last several years and this doesn't look like it's going to take him in a new direction; Gambit's presence doesn't give confidence that he'll start acting in-character again; in my mind, Azazel should be completely forgotten; Emplate working on a team like this seems nonsensical (albeit par for the course in this era)...I could go on.
Here's hoping this week's announcements are more promising!
"When the mob and the press and the whole world tell you to move, your job is to plant yourself like a tree beside the river of truth, and tell the whole world — No, you move."
Yeah, of the three I'm only checking out Dark X-men. And in terms of the other X-line books, I'm down to just X-men and Wolverine now. Hoping there's better news this week... or at least news/announcements more tailored to my likes, I should say. To each their own.
“Not as good as I once was… but I’m as good, once, as I ever was.”
I hope we get RB Silva and Carmen Carnero as part of the FoX line up.

That would be phenomenal!
Yeah, while it's no picnic for Hank fans, this current arc with Beast where he's just gone full on "ends justifies the means" bad guy has been entertaining. And I've really enjoyed the artwork from Juan Jose Ryp. Next up we have an August four-part crossover with Ghost Rider called 'Weapons of Vengeance' involving Weapon Plus having an offshoot program that's basically using "the instruments of hell" and dipping into the occult to create super soldiers. So naturally Wolverine and Ghost Rider get involved, and there's some flashback to their first meeting. That sounds pretty cool to me too, plus it's got this Geoff Shaw guy on art whose work looks pretty stellar from what I've seen. After that? Nobody knows, but it looks like Greg Capullo is coming over to Marvel to draw Wolverine next.
So Logan fans are getting an absolute feast when it comes to artists! This makes up for Percy's work being a bit slow and meandering at times. At least IMO.

Any idea when we’ll be getting the next wave of announcements?

Krakoa, Arakko, and Otherworld forever!
Last week’s reveals came on Friday, so it’s possible it’s this Friday. Hoping it’s Thursday though. Or sooner!
“Not as good as I once was… but I’m as good, once, as I ever was.”
I just want Serafina to have a big role in Fall of X (bring back Cannonball too!!)
How come the NEO never got their just due? Felt like their story got cut short.
"She never loved you, you know you always frightened her"- Cyclops
"And if she was here right now....Who do you think she would be more frightened of?"- Wolverine
Not sure if this has been posted but we got more info on Immortal X-Men and X-Men Red in Fall of X.

In X-MEN RED #14, Ewing is joined by new series artist Yildiray Çinar. As the Brotherhood reels from the cataclysmic events of the Hellfire Gala, Genesis takes advantage of the chaos — and declares war! Two vast mutant armies clash, and Arakko’s idols fall…but this is only the beginning of a conflict that will remake the Red Planet. And whatever happened to Isca the Unbeaten?
