I do believe he was truly one of the best X-men writers of the last decade and will be missed. But the positive is that the Rogue obsession will go with him unless he gets another X-title.

[El Bastardo]

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo.

****, David Finch is going to come back to Marvel after this and write stupid **** like his Batman: Dark Knight. Watch! Watch!

I hope he "feeds" Frenzy to Rogue on his way out

[Colossal Spoons]

Yeah, she can suck her powers dry and kill her. No coma, I need death!

[chamber-music]

Whats with the Frenzy hate?

If Magneto goes back to being a villain she should go with him as his right hand women like mystique in the X-Men films.

Rogue should go back to being a side character.

Frenzy is a stereotype on legs. Angry black lady, watch out. I like my Luke Cage w/o boobs please

[OutcryX]

so wait...they are teasing Rogue's team just like with Wolverine and Cyclops/Emma's team?? is there a three-way split? and i am all for Rogue taking Frenzy's powers..it will make for more drama..though..cant Rogue control her abilities now?

I don't think Frenzy is a sterotype she is a mutant supremacist with a temper which could apply to 80% of X-Men villains.

Her does character lack a little depth but its not surprising considering she was a D-List henchwoman who used to look like Grace Jones in 1986.

Luke Cage had ligit reasons to be angry back in the day. He was framed by his best friend and sent to supermax prision, his brother lied to him and said his fathers dead, he had racist dude up in his business and Sabertooth slashed supermodel girlfriend.

Yes Rogue can control her powers. If she were to grab someone for an overextended length of time, she should still be able to perma-absorb them. Im hoping Carey comes up with some way to get that to happen

[OutcryX]

Maybe they should have Rogue and Frenzy 'experiment' with some girl on girl romantic action...that would be grabbing her for an extended length of time im sure..i mean she WAS raised by two...nvm

[El Bastardo]

Spoons is just angry because Frenzy is a stereotype of him.

Spoons = angry black lady.

[Colossal Spoons]

Oh, I'm plenty angry lol. I just have good reasons when it happens. Frenzy is clearly just in need of a good night out with Gambit

[OutcryX]

soo..according to the Bastard...Spoons needs a night out with Gambit then...oh my

[Colossal Spoons]

Yeah, we go out and chase broads

Legacy connects to Wolverine & The X-Men.

Uncanny, X-Men and Generation Hope are all connected to each other.

Wolverine books have yellow/gold in the titles. Emma books have blue.

Blue and Gold.

[OutcryX]

why Wolverine and X-Men though? Why not Extreme or Amazing or something else as the title??

[Obsidian Idea]

That's what I'm sayin'....The Incredible X-men...works for me!

'FIVE MILES SOUTH OF THE UNIVERSE' When Rogue, Magneto and Gambit jumped into space on an intergalactic search and rescue mission, they had no idea that it would land them in the middle of an extraterrestrial war! And to make matters worse, the space station that serves as the battlefield for the conflict is slowly falling into a collapsing star. With time running out and the lives of Havok, Polaris and Marvel Girl on the line, these X-Men are in for a bumpy ride...
