Official X-FORCE Discussion Thread - Part 1

When did AoA Sabretooth stop wearing boots? And why, since the AoA Anniversary trash a few years back, does AoA Gambit now look like a fashion reject? He didn't have those goofy Cannonball-wannabe goggles way back when.

I thought Gambit died in that retarded AoA thingy, didn't he get sucked into Cloak and got lost or something stupid like that? Whatever, the more they ignore that damn series the better.

Except Remender is acknowledging it with the inclusion of Silver Samurai.

Nightcrawler would be my choice. I hope they don't bring back the AOA Jean.....we need the real thing....and this would only delay her return.

yeah, and X-23. And Jean Grey being back. Actually it seems that they are not ignoring it at all. It doesn't matter though because the story so far has been pretty awesome.

I think he's still to busy running around with what's left of the Marauders.

[BoredGuy]

i say they shouldve just entirely ignored that second AoA story and used the classic one. The characters and costumes introduced are not nearly as nostalgic or interesting for those of us who didnt pick up that mini. Well, with the possible exception of X-23, seeing Logan realize who she was and process that was a good character moment for him, as well as her gettin fried by AoA Wolv-pocalypse...

[Colossal Spoons]

^Why hold the story back b/c some people didn't buy the mini?

[OutcryX]

X-men heroes and villains even if irrevocably murdered/killed...they keep coming back for more

Yeah, this. I'm at the front of the line for nay-saying regarding the AoA Anniversary mini, that hunk of trashy **** that manages to make Prelude to Schism look like a good idea, but what Remender has picked and done with it really has nothing to do with the mini itself.

Not springboarding from the mini would have been weaker. No Jean, no X-23.

FEAR ITSELF TIE-IN
With the events of FEAR ITSELF causing worldwide panic, Jonathan Standish and his cell of rogue Purifiers look to take their murderous mission to the next level. Believing superheroes have brought about the end of the world, just how many innocents can these Purifiers kill? How many 'souls' can they save from the devil? And where will they strike next?

The Dark Angel Saga: Part 3 Years ago, Wolverine helplessly watched as Jean Grey, the love of his life, died before his eyes. Years later, he would lose his best-friend Nightcrawler to a similar fate. In order to save our world, can he allow them to die again? X-Force team up with The Amazing X-Men for the final push against the heir of Apocalypse, in a battle Royale that will force Wolverine to make the hardest choice of his life. One world must die!

[joshtylen]

wow can't wait to read it

[OutcryX]

the AoA world is ending..again..gives credence to AoA Nightcrawler coming to the 616. Just him though. the rest of the X-Men can all die. well..except for Sabretooth and Wildchild..wouldnt mind that combo coming over as well

[Specter313]

[OutcryX]

...*sigh* looks like the same cast except no logan and no archangel

[Jake Cassidy]

It looks like Archangel's gone.

If Psylocke wasn't still there, I wouldn't even bother with this.

[Havok83]

These arent official rosters. Im pretty sure there will still be overlap between the various books. Just bc 1 character doesnt show up in the silohettes for one title doesnt mean he or she wont be in it. For example Wolverine is in the Wolverine and the X-men shot, but I think theres a strong change that he will still be in X-force even though he's not appearing in the X-force shot

[Jake Cassidy]

I'm just sick of these silhouettes. Just show us, damn it!

[OutcryX]

AoA Nightcrawler >>> 616 Nightcrawler
