I thought Elsa brother died in Avengers Arena?

[OmegaPower]

Hello Mr Bunn
I have read before you were a huge Rachel Grey fan, a trait rarely found in X-writters these days. In just one issue you already shown you care and know alot about the character so my question is: What are your plans for Rachel Grey? Is she just a guest or is she going to stay in your book? And why did you choose to bring her now?

Thanks, and keep the good work

Hi, Cullen! I'm loving Uncanny!

1) Will there be any crossovers/cross-promotion between Uncanny/Mercs/other X-Books and Monsters Unleashed? If she's in the book, Elsa Bloodstone and Psylocke throwing shade would be divine.
2) Merging M and Emplate [some call her Emulate] reminded me of the... interesting 90s M/Emplate/Penance fusion called M-Plate. Was that an influence in deciding to merge the siblings?
3) Will we learn the fate of Penance and the M Twins?
4) Will Ken Lashley be doing any more interiors? I hope so. If not, which artist will be doing the post-Hellfire Club arc and what hints can you drop about that arc?
5) With Greg Land announced as one of the Monsters Unleashed artists, does that mean he's no longer drawing Uncanny?
6) Do you have any plans for Banshee?

Thanks!

He was mentioned in A-Force so I'm guessing he's fine and still blowing up sh!# somewhere.

Maybe Franklin Richards brought him back when he reimagined the world post-Secret Wars. Now it's called Earth-Prime or somethin' instead of Earth-616. I dunno.

Hi Cullen,

1) We just got the post-multi-teaser teaser for Monsters Unleashed. Any other tidbits you can tease us with? Some segments of the fandom have been asking for a resurrection of Marvel's classic horror line for ages now. Is January going to be their month?

2) It seems as if what trust there was between Magneto and Psylocke has worn very thin. Is there another team fracture on the horizon for the UXM crew?

3) New Mutants, Generation X, New X-Men - three teams enter, only one leaves. Which one is it?

Hello CB,

Psylocke has always been depicted as someone who has sought to distance herself from her confortable, princess life, towards a life of excitment and adventures. From model to pilot to secret agent and finally finding her true life motivations among the x-men, betsy's choices led her to a lot of losses, including lovers, her eyes, her own body and even her life. While not even death could take her joie de vivre, the recent events in her life, including the destruction of her original body, her joining to x-force, jamie and angel's death and most recently the T-Mist, seems to have made her more recluse and apathetic than ever. What is your view on Betsy's current mood and motivations? Do you think we'll eventually see her back in her cheerful, outgoing and vigorous mood?

2) Merging M and Emplate [some call her Emulate]

I cringe every time I read that silly forum nickname. What's being emulated here?

[jawbreaker]

will we see any other Gen X characters beside Monet and Emplate in this series?

Oh, laugh a little. M is emulating being normal/perfect when she's literally not herself.

I thought Elsa brother died in Avengers Arena?

He was in the entire run of Avengers Undercover.

I wasn't going to say anything because it seemed unnecessary to add anything to an already great post, but now that I'm thinking about it more... I'd really like these questions answered, especially #3 and #6!

Thanks to nx01a for asking. ^.^

Hi Cullen, great work on Uncanny so far, I think it's really become the core X-Men book for a lot of readers.

I heard that Whilce Portacio might be supplying some art for Uncanny at some point is that so? And if he does, will there be a Bishop appearance? It seems a like a great opportunity for one.

One other, more general, question: when working on a long-running book like X-Men, do you ever chat to previous writers of it to get their perspectives on characters?

[ExodusCloak]

The X-Men stories have always tried to keep relevant to current social affairs. Is the inhuman and mutant clash of cultures something you are able to link back to the real world and if so how do you feel it is relevant?

Secondly, there was mention of Cordelia Frost in the last incarnation of the Hellfire Club under Kade Kilgore. Given Shaws current position is that something he'd use to enact revenge on Emma?

Magnetos loyal acolytes have still not flocked back to him is this significant to the story you're trying to tell?

[Sardorim]

Hmmm.. I should have asked if Rachel and Teenage Jean were going to be allowed to interact beyond fighting.
