Maybe they're all dead for now.
Not sure how I feel about all of this. It could be my current lack of interest in X-Men influencing me but this news did nothing for me. I'll pick up X-Men for Cyke, Magik, and dapper Magneto and see how things go from there but so far...eh.
UXM: good creative team, but line-up from last century, not interested.
XM: Plus: MacKay, Magik and Oya. Neutral: Cain and Kwannon. Minus: the rest of the team, especially the pink haired poochie. Why do writers care so much about him?
EXM: Not interested in future limbo/redshirt material, and even less interested in Emma and Kitty drama.
Once again, the main X-Men teams are led by Not New, Not Different X-Men. The future of the X-Men look very much like the past of the X-Men.
Dani, Sam, Roberto will either be nowhere or in one of the side-teams. Or hopefully in some new Avengers book, where they may actually get some respect.
Only (maybe) good thing: the two Miss Oh-So-Perfect will hopefully be contained in their solo series.
Bringing back the old, killing the young: that's the Marvel way
Why is Cyclops 16?!
Please tell me this isn't ANXM Scott
Very neutral on these 3 reveals. They feel very safe and uninspired...really hoping I am wrong.
Not happy we get new characters in Rogue's and Kitty's team, while we have so many New Mutants, Gen X and New X-Men champs are left out.
Also no Archangel, Iceman, Havok, Polaris, Betsy, Cable, Bishop and Askani.
Also missing Arakko.

This X-Factor team would be great. Dazzler would fit in well.
I’m trying to think about what we know for post Fall, and I feel like Apocalypse needs to have a strong presence on Arrako maybe as a returned to villian scenario. Maybe you have some of the players from the limited series like Dani, Cypher, Rictor, and have X-Force that counter balances them with Cable, Cannonball, Sunspot, Shatterstar. Add in some other players too, but X-Force being centric of the 90s and utilizing Apocalypse would be cool. Or even turn it on its head and let Apocalypse lead X-Force. Play on the 90s and these characters and maybe a content shifting of who’s on which side.
I don't know who Oya/Temper is, but that's a great costume -- somewhat reminiscent of Dave Cockrum design sense.
There's a Phoenix book, that'll be Jean's. Storm has a solo too.
Jubilee's one of the Dead X-Men...
Kitty's reminds me of her X-Men Evolution look.
She was in the post-Secret Wars All-New X-Men with the male members of the 05 and Laura and Kid Apocalypse. I think she's originally from Wolverine and the X-Men?
