X-FORCE by Geoffrey Thorne and Marcus To

[Dante Milton]

Who wants to hear a crackpot theory about Tank that is truly wild and baseless speculation? Nobody? Too bad here it comes. So in Jim Zub's Thunderbolts he introduced a Cable knockoff called Gutsen Glory. He was a character whose origin was never explained, just that he was a cyborg (?) who was an asset that belonged to the US government. Forge notably used to make weapons for the government. So perhaps GG was his doing, and perhaps he needed to use GG, and perhaps he asked the government to allow him to use GG but they said no, so perhaps he stole GG and obscured his identity? I've connected the dots ...

Oh man I would love that so much.

Good to see you, gifted!

Hello! I've been over on Twitter, but I kind of miss posting on CBR here. I may make a permanent return. Ha!

And I love all the theorizing of who Tank may be. The guessing game is totally engaging and Redjack knows exactly how to ignite these conversations without giving too much away.

Can't wait to see who ended up guessing correctly.

Betsy is Betsy. And woman are allowed to have pony tails. Most woman can do that. Its not a hairstyle owned by one character.

I liked it more when she had long hair. That costume is definitely not for her with all the pockets because she actually doesn't need those. So much 90s throwback
Even Rachel is wearing those pockets on her hips lol

Geoff Thorne did say "Forge is always giving folks helpful gadgets" so maybe we'll see him gifting the team gizmos that enhance their strengths or something. Plus they need to keep their phones somewhere.

Damn now I kind of want Blink on this team

Here's hoping!

I want Blink on ALL the teams. Much Blink love at Casa Thorne.

Haven't drawn her in a minute.

Maybe it's time for another go.

So happy to see confirmation that Tank is indeed Blink. Can’t wait.



(Geoff, can you get Brevoort to give us a new Exiles book, please?)

I love all of these variant covers! One question though… why is Betsy’s hair pink instead of her signature purple?

[Jackraow21]

I think Tank is Cable.

Okay, I don’t think that. Just hope he’s going to show up somewhere in the new era. Maybe X-Factor…

HA wishful thinking bud, I think its Bishop or Petey.

Good to know. Sigh

Yeah it should be a bit more on the purple/lavender side. Sometimes the glow of her creations will give a slight pink reflection but purple is ideal.

I would love for it to be either one. Although after today's Fall #4 I have a new conspiracy theory.

Thats just how Matt Wilson colors it. He did it on the Excalibur covers too. But the interior artist colored it purple.

So go tweet at Matt Wilson to color it right.

Also love that AoA Blink image.

616 Blink is such a blank slate though. So much can be done to elevate that character.

Beautiful!
