According to the character's creators, wasn't it corporate "synergy" that caused her origin to be that of an Inhuman instead of a mutant in the first place?
I hope when they publish the article it tells us when we can expect announcements for storm, xfactor and wolverine
Boy... I have no marketing background, or any clue what kind of research they did on the revamped line. But, of the six books revealed so far, I can only see Uncanny X-Men and X-Men having any kind of lengthy (for these days) run. The line-ups and creative teams for the others just don't really seem to inspire much optimism. Was hopeful for X-Factor, but based off what we've been shown so far, those hopes are dwindling.
“Not as good as I once was… but I’m as good, once, as I ever was.”
Underwhelmed by the announcements so far. Hopefully the X-Factor book will be interesting, really hope that Mystique/Shalvey rumor isn't true.
My interest level so far: X-Force>>>>Exceptional=X-Men (would be higher with a different artist)>>Uncanny>>>>>>>>Phoenix=NYX
Right now X-Men and X-Force are the sure buys for me, with Uncanny and X-factor in the waiting list. I have absolutely no interest in Exceptional, and NYX is not for me. In any case I am glad that at least the fans of those characters will have a title to follow, and that the New X-Men kids are at least a big part of the relaunch after taken a back seat for so many years. I am still curious about X-Factor, but if it ends being a Mystique book I am out.
As of now, this is where I'm at for the announced books.
Definitely getting: Uncanny, Adjectiveless and X-Force.
Willing to give a chance: Phoenix
Not interested: Exceptional, NYX
Of the remaining three, the only one I'm curious about is X-Factor. I like Wolverine and Storm in general, but not enough to read their solo's.
Agreed about the Maximoffs. Kamala's origin isn't getting retconned though. In fact, I don't think she's even going to have her mutant gift revealed. We already know the Inhumans are appearing in the last issue of Mutant Menace. They'll probably do something to suppress the X gene as that's causing the problem. What won't change is Kamala's desire to help the mutants' cause. After all, discrimination against mutants is no different to discrimination against youth (which she experienced in Outlawed) or discrimination against Muslims, is it? She'll want everyone to be able to live in harmony. White or Black. Christian or Muslim. Normal human or Mutant. Which was always Xavier's dream.
I do wonder if they'll use her in the Ultimate Comics. They can use a version with her MCU powers there.
