I guess it's possible some of the membership engages in a hostile takeover to take the club from her because she is too altruistic and not making enough profit with the club as they want because they want to go back to the good old days using the club to make insane profits through arms trading, drug trafficking, and sex trafficking.

    Yeah its quite weird, cause as we've seen she does start off this event in her black king outfit and im guessing as the story progresses she probably goes towards the side of the X-Men once again, to probably help face off against X. But yeah, its weird Emma didnt really last too long as the Black King, hell we never even got to see any changes from her leadership either, so the whole of the Xmen Black series seems to really have just been story filler and not really important.

    Depends on which book she gets to be on in the late fall. Although with Emma being in his top 5 there is a good chance he'll want her on his main book so he can control her character direction.

    Once HoX/PoX finishes they are probably going to split the line back up into 4 or 5 books again. I think we'll see Uncanny X-Men, X-Men, X-Force, X-Factor, and maybe Excalibur this fall. It's possible that the start with a smaller line of 2 or 3 because they said there is going to be a Phase 1 and Phase 2 series of books. So phase 1 is in September, and then the phase 2 books will be coming out probably spring or summer 2020.

    oh wow, you predict X is the villain of the event. He does kind of look creepy and villainy in the promo art. Maybe he is mind controlling everyone to do what he thinks is best for mutants. That is probably why he is forcing Jean to keep wearing that mini skirt outfit she wore as a teenager. Xavier/X is so creepy.

    If they are dropping the HFC thing, it's yet another X in the "Yeah, it's BS they're planning for Hickman's run for a yea like Cebulski said" thing. My guess is that they were going to a "classic" version for everyone- Magneto, Emma, Cyclops, etc, but Hickman coming in, invited by Dan Buckley himself, changed that.

    Magneto with the helmet and Emma in diamond form would have immunity to his powers, huh...

    How long has the Hickman take over been in the works? Yeah, this is a good point that we could see a couple characters essentially do a 360 within the past few years.

    X-Men Black was filler for Uncanny which was filler for AoXM which was filler for Hickman's run.

    It looks like maybe X is using a cerebro like helmet, so it could possibly be powering his powers, which would explain a bit I guess. But I dont know X is seeming like a very antagonistic character so far, im guessing he's probably going to tell the mutants to either go to Mars or "the world" since he does have fantomex's body

    Hickman said he pitched this to Dan Buckley in late 2017, but I don't know for how long it's been a sure thing already.

    The Cerebro makes him look like the Maker, too much to it be unintentional. And the Maker under Hickman is the most dangerous man in the Multiverse.

    How would you describe the relationship between Emma and Ororo?

    They used to be friends, but Emma kind of dumped the IvX on Ororo and ran with Alex. I am not sure if Ororo is going to be able to forgive Emma for that. I hated IvX, but if we treat it as canon then Emma and Ororo are not on good terms after IvX.

    Friends is a stretch. They were cordial coworkers

    I think he pitched Powers of X originally and then when he was given full reign he pitched House of X and much more sweeping plans.

    Guessing HFC Emma was meant to be more of a impact until this reboot happened.

    I really wanted a Hellfire X comic with Emma as the Black King and star of the book.

    Well, if Black King era ends now in the current Uncanny arc at least it had some impact - was used in a big way here in Uncanny and also showed up in two guest appearances. Much more than the other X-Men Black one-shots that were completely inconsequential as far as I can tell.

    Not too shabby for a new writer.
