I have been trying to make this point for awhile. Al Ewing treats his characters with a lot of love and actually develops them. He actually makes an attempt to tie in old continuity also. Marvel should allow him to absorb the original New Mutants into US Avengers working for and with Roberto. They would be in a much better place than what's taken place the X-Office. They would get no shine whatsoever. Al Ewing has a talent for juggling a decent size cast. Roberto and Sam were my favorites so I'm satisfied but if things were reversed I would probably be sending letters to petition for it given the feast or famine that's taking place in X Books.
Agreed Ewing has been consistently Marvel's best writer for the past couple of years. I've been wanting him to write an X-title since he was put on Mighty Avengers because like you said he develops his characters and he seems to enjoy tackling the continuity and finding new and fun ways of tieing things together.
I care, too: we may be the 1%, but the Minority does count .
That's why I wasn't surprised about her absence, I'm sadly used to her being apart of her old teammates. But she's still my 'first favorite' New Mutant, the one who attracted my attention in the very beginning. Cheers, Rahne!
No. IIRC, she wasn't named even once. It was hard enough that she wasn't part of the team, but the fact that her teammates didn't even share a story about her when they spent a whole nostalgic night gulping beer --that was almost offensive !
hope more NM cameo in USAnger ..
Well, I'm part of the minority who cares about Rahne too.
I think that the chances to see her among ex-teamates of New Mutants are very low since she never interacted with any of them theses last 10 years. For the best in a way, considering how great was X-Factor in comparison with NM vol3 after Wells's departure ...
Anyway, since nobody ever tried to reunite Rahne with resurrected Doug, how do you expect to see her alongside the NM ?
Peter David recently mentioned on his blog: "As for Rahne and Doug, if the characters had ever overlapped in X-Factor I definitely would have done that story. PAD "
I wish Marvel give him this opportunity one of theses days !
