I’ve just published my very first work on ‘Archive of Our Own’, under the same name as here. It is the first chapter of ‘I Am My Own Best Friend ~ An Emma Frost Road Trip’, which focuses on Emma between the events of IvX and Secret Empire, including the White Queen going on a road trip, to try and have fun!
You can read the story here: https://archiveofourown.org/works/15795663
I hope you enjoy it as much I did writing it!
No, I didn't consider it, but I can see it possible in the solicits.
When they say Marauders I am wagering they mean the new team that showed up in Blue #5 last year not the 80s version.Cry Havok #1
X-MEN BLUE #23

Well, we do know ultimate QS died and that they're working with Miss Sinister. So it's almost definitely them.

http://cullenbunn.tumblr.com/post/17...enjimmy-hudsonWho designed the new costumes in X-Men Blue? And will Magneto and/or Danger get one?
Jorge Molina designed the new suits. Magneto will get a little upgrade as well.
http://cullenbunn.tumblr.com/post/17...any-hope-thoseIs it safe to assume the Daken/Jimmy Hudson brother dynamic will be tumultuous?
Oh, yeah. Maybe not at first… but for sure.
http://cullenbunn.tumblr.com/post/17...that-i-want-toI'm adoring your run on XBlue, any hope those multiple deaths are the horrible teen 5 and Magneto's team is finally rid of them? Also please don't make Emma "good" again, she's tons more interesting as a villain
They’re ALL going to die. O5, current X-Men, the X-Men of the past and the present and the future.
Emma, too.
The thing about Emma Frost arc is that I want to care about her story, I don't want to feel like "ohh, she's evil now bc her boyfriend died" is that it? she's was acting good because of a man? she was a X-Men, she saved the world many times with them, and now everybody seems to forget that, she was a friend, she's not perfect yes, but I feel like they should give her more credit
Which has kind of been the point of some of their recent interactions with her.
ALSO, apparently there will be FALLOUT, in a 2-part epilogue:

The fallout seems like it will be relating what happened to the B-Team to the returning O5, so that should be really cool. It felt off that the big ongoing plot of Blue was resolved without its main cast (even if I don't personally care much for them), but if done well this could really be the defining Blue arc.
Sadly, 8 issues means it's highly, highly unlikely that we get this whole "epic" in trade. But I'm still so excited.
Perhaps the set-up, wrt Magneto and the O5 returning home, leads into the big event happening in summer that was teased a while back?

Hype! Not all the characters will make it out alive. That's because Bloodstorm already ISN"T alive. Hype hype!! Misleading summaries.
For real though...if everyone but Polaris and Bloodstorm (caveat above notwithstanding) died, I wouldn't care at all. But they better not touch a hair on Lorna's head.
Oh by the way Silva released some WIP Covers of X-Men Blue 28, and Ultimate Armor, Mach 5, Not!Angel, and Quicksilver were on it, so the Marauders means the AU X-Men.

It still baffles that these lame AUs are calling themselves the Marauders. The Marauders used to be some of the most vicious and menacing X-villains. These kids are anything but.
