X force without remender is automatically a fail. One of the best runs in any comic ever. They shouldn't change it period.

My guess is one team is sanctioned, the other is not. Cable will probably be on one of the teams.

Brevoort pretty much confirmed it at Baltimore Comic Con.

*sigh* I was hoping they wouldn't mess with X-Force. There were plenty of places they could have taken the current title.

Daredevil's un-named but referred to as the "Marvel Knights" team?

They were formed to capture Punisher but i'm pretty sure he ended up joining them.

I still refuse to believe fantomex is really dead.

CBR News: Rick, "Final Execution" runs through "Uncanny X-Force" #31-35, and then your run on the book is over. Why are you leaving and what made "Final Execution" a good note to end on?

Rick Remender: There were a lot of different factors involved. It was a very tough decision to make and it came down to a conversation I had about it with Kieron Gillen about how long I would stay past this. He said, "Know when to get off the stage." That's something that we maybe overlook.

I'm now doing "Uncanny Avengers" and "Captain America" and I realized that in order for me to do those and not want to blow my brains out, I might have to walk away from "Venom," "Secret Avengers" and "Uncanny X-Force." That was a bummer because I put so much into building them and getting the trains out of the station. I love all the characters, but that's just the reality. With "X-Force," I feel like this final story, which I'm very excited and have been building towards for a while now, pretty much wraps up everything we've been doing. It says everything I wanted to say about a kill squad while also really digging into the X-Universe that I loved so much as a kid growing up. So it really did come down to the fact that it was time to get off the stage.

On a plus side, Phil Noto's drawing the final arc and he's pretty much one of the best artists today.

I guess I will give Uncanny Avengers a try. What is the roster on that one and how many of them have been made in MU?

shortysben · 09-12-2012, 05:52 PM

Marvel Now could be either one of two things, good for my wallet if it sucks, and bad for my wallet and interesting if they are any good...we will see, either way I win though...

SquirtleSquad7 · 09-12-2012, 05:53 PM

Anyone know any kind of glue that works on soft plastic? Scarlet Spider has a cut going the side of his sweatshirt so it was removable, and I tried the testors plastic super glue I have on it twice, and it still won't bond or hold. Any ideas? Especially since the sweatshirt would move a little while moving the torso.

I just can't get on board with it, that's just stickin' too much X in my A.

Avengers (Hickman, Opena) replaces Bendis
Iron Man (Gillen, Land) replaces Fraction/Larocca
New Avengers (Hickman, ?) replaces Bendis
Secret Avengers (?, ?) replace's Remender

If there's a Avengers Academy or Young Avengers for NOW!, i'll add it.

Dark Avengers isn't changing and Hawkeye is too new to change, the rest of my list is non-Marvel.

And to answer the question...

Havok (Leader)
Captain America
Thor
Wolverine
Rogue
Scarlet Witch

Pretty much everyone except for Wolverine has a new costume, so no figures for this team.

See, I don't know if I like that much A in my X. I miss the days of an X-Team at the school, led by Prof. X, and flying the Blackbird out of a secret runway.

That is an odd lineup with Havoc and Rogue. I haven't followed Rogue recently so I'm not sure how well she will fit. I do feel like this sort thing isn't going to last and they didn't pick any major X-Men that weren't already Avengers.

Wonder what costume Rogue will have in the 3-pack...

Chisel that in a stone tablet and beat Marvel's editors to death with it.

I got Jubilee today from a fellow Arker Fifth Fantastic! A super cool guy to trade with!
Jubilee is pretty cool, if not very posable because of the trenchcoat- but the eyes really need work.
I might paint them all black with red dots for her vampire look.
Talk about a good power swap- from "that chick throws fireworks" to "holy shit, she's a vampire!!!"

Now..who wants to sell me a Blastaar and Professor X?

Gah! KungFuGrip is spittin truth. We have nothing here! If you happen upon a Punisher and want to help me out, I would appreciate it.

mikefavata · 09-12-2012, 06:26 PM

Meh, Kyle & Yost's run on X-Force Vol. 3 wasn't bad.

I wish they would announce NOW! Agents of Atlas. Unfortunatelly Lauren Sankovitch pretty much told me there's no way it's going to happen.
