Rogue And Kate Pryde Will Each Lead The New X-Men Teams This Summer — From BC

[DarkMagnus]

Since we have four days until we (hopefully) know what's going on, I decided to throw my ideas for From The Ashes before they get torn apart by cold reality:

1. UNBELIEVABLE X-MEN by Gail Simone and David Marquez. The Westchester flagship book. I am calling it this because I am not ready to go back to Uncanny just yet. Rouge's team the more public superhero one.

2. EXCITING X-MEN also by Gail Simone. Kitty's book. A mix of X-Factor and X-Force as this team works with the government to deal with mutant issues.

3. INFINITE X-MEN by Eve Ewing. Storm, Apocalypse, and Genesis book. The Arrako book. This book deals with the intergalactic threats that threaten the Marvel universe.

4. EXEMPLARS by Ryan North. Beast team. Sort of like X-Club this is the science team having all sorts of incredible adventures. This is the science team that can have characters like Mr. Fantastic, Dr. Doom, or Moon Girl guest star.

5. GENERATION NEXT by Rainbow Rowell. Also, in Westchester. Kamala's team. The well new generation learning to be heroes with some new characters.

6. EXCELSIOR by Jed MacKay. Betsy and Rachel's book. The Otherworld/Multi-verse book.

7. X-FACTION by Saladin Ahmed. Scott, Jean, and Cable's book. Time travel, alternative earths, ancient conspiracies. The furthest adventures of Cyclops and Pheonix.

8. LOGAN: WOLVERINE by Philip Kennedy Johnson and Greg Capullo.

So, what do you think? I look forward to your inevitable mockery.

is ROGUE. no ROUGE its ROGUE.

Yeah, Rouge is a Sonic the Hedgehog character.

While we start saying what we hope for, let me throw in my hopes;

Planet Arakko, or Red X-Men: Storm, Nova, Apocalypse, Petra, Sway, Kobak, Khora, Ironfire, White Sword, Lodus Logos, Craig Marshall and more: The Arakko book.

X-Corps: I think we have a nice base already: Mirage, Sunspot, Shatterstar, Rictor, Thunderbird, Warpath, Trinary, Wiz-Kid, added with Archangel.

X-Force: The Black Ops team: Wolverine (Laura), Sage, Hellion, El Águila (Alejandro Montoya), Wolfsbane, Magma, Vanisher, Kwannon (in different uniform) and Greycrow

All i care about at this point is will I have to do an X-Men so white post. I think that's simple and I honestly expect more from female writers in that regard though have often been let down. That and good stories/art but that part is subjective. All white females is not diversity.

You won’t. Storm is for sure going to headline a book, and I do not believe she’ll be the only POC character in the X-line. Bet.

Gail has highlighted Monet and Jubilee as characters recently. It's not a smoking gun or anything, but I wouldn't be surprised if she ends up having them in her book either. But yes, I do hope the teams are suitably diverse as well.

Yeah, I know it's out there, but I will always believe that naming comics with titles like Exemplars and Excelsior sound better than whatever Young X is going to be.

I saw I did that and cursed quietly. I knew I screwed something up there. Sorry.
