So read it! They don’t show Broo’s addition to the X-Men’s cast of characters on-panel, but he was introduced in Jason Aaron’s Wolverine and the X-Men and that book goes into his character and origin a fair amount. Fair warning: the tone of the book is pretty wacky. I hated it.

You keep having this same complaint. The stories are presented in the order they were published, not necessarily strictly chronologically. Sometimes a book’s arc takes multiple issues to resolve, and the events over several issues of one book might have occurred in under a day, whereas one issue of another book could span a week or more. Clearly X-Force #8 and #9 collectively took place either before or after X-Men #8 and #9. I don’t understand how this keeps confounding you.

Ditto for your Lockheed complaint. They did show Lockheed return to Krakoa. You just haven’t read it yet. Stay tuned in Marauders for Lockheed’s fate and assume that Giant Size X-Men: Nightcrawler takes place before Lockheed’s troubles on the high seas.
