Eh, M has been either useless or annoying to me so far.

I LOVE M!!! Don't you dare diss my diva!!

Granted she was written overall quite poorly in Gen X, especially the whole twin's and Penance thing gave me a headache. But since then her appearances as part of X-Corp and cameo as part of Angel's X-Team were ace.

Now with her in X-Factor we've seen aspects of her that we've never seen before. She's using her telepathy more, and even though she is still a stuck up diva she still has her moments of tenderness.

I just hope with the next issue of X-Factor when Siryn reacts to the knowledge of Banshee's death, we get some reaction from M as well considering that she has spent the majority of her youth growing up with him as a mentor during her Gen X and X-Corp days.
 
ACording to Mike Marts, there will be a Juggernaut/Cytorrak story in 13-14 by Frank Tieri

Considering how strong Captain Britain is he should be okay, and it's a 2handed sword it seems, has to be used a certain way.

anybody read this?

Tieri's plans for Excalibur...

highlights?

-Tieri's version of Wisdom will be a dick. He's an ******* and there's gonna be major leadership friction between him, the guy who brought the new team together, and Captain Britain, the guy who led the original team.

-A love triangle, which according to him has been subtely developing in the series already, my bet...Juggernaut/Nocturne/Captain Britain.

-A one and done story called Chamber. He's back in England and we'll see how he deals with his situation after M-Day, and how he's even still alive and cognitive for that matter. We'll get an answer to the question Tieri created in the first place, "Is Chamber related to Apocalypse?" How Chamber's depowered status relates to Weapon X, a vist from Clan Akkaba, and maybe even Apocalypse himself. ALL IN ONE ISSUE!

-Tieri's "recruitment drive" of sorts will consist of Chamber and The Black Knight. Whether or not they actually stay with the team, you'll have to wait and see.

-His next story after that is The Last Days of Camelot, a three parter. It looks like a time travel story to me, though it was never actually stated to be one. The premise? Camelot is destroyed before its time has come, the only surviving member of the Round Table is Sir Percy, the original Black Knight. Now he has to undo what has happened, and Excalibur is there to help. Plus the current Black Knight is along for the ride too, Dane Whitman. The story will deal with the mythology behind the Ebony Blade. Why, if its cursed and must be destroyed, does it constantly end up in the hands of the Black Knight? Tieri says he has answers and if your a Black Knight fan you don't want to miss this.

-After that he's doing another three parter focusing on Juggernaut. He'll be sinking his teeth into the whole reformed-villain aspect of him. Is he really reformed, should he be? Tieri will delve into all of that.

dude i don't even buy new excalibur and i'm stoked!
 
Anybody know what this whole Apocalypse and Chamber relation is?
 
in tieri's Apocalypse vs. Dracula miniseries that just wrapped up, we're introduced to Clan Akkaba, a collection of Apocalypse's mutant descendants who serve him throughout the ages. The miniseries takes place in Victorian England. The two members who survive a horrific vampire attack on the clan are two mutants. One named Starsmore, he could breathe fire from his mouth. The somewhat similar power and name suggests that he was a relative of Chamber's.

The other was a pink haired, green eyed, wheel chair bound, mute, teleporter. At the end of the mini, Ozymandias brough him a prostitute to help keep Clan Akkaba alive. The prostitutes name? Miss Ferguson. This suggests that Blink (both 616 and AOA/Exiles) is a descendant of Apocalypse.
 
Just saw Tieri's interview on Newsarama...sounds awesome. I'm glad Claremont will be off it for a bit. I'm especially excited to read some stuff on Chamber. I got into the comics after Generation X, but everyone always raves about him. Hopefully he'll join up as a full-time member on the team. It could use some attitude.

Whats the deal with the Black Knight though? I've never heard of him.
 
I bet the Love triangle involves Juggernaut/Dazzler/Nocturne
 
Glad they appear to be looking at some of that stuff - cos right now I'm sorry to say; the book is so wishy washy and stop start, if it didnt have Captain Britain in it (who should totally be mourning more but trying his best to be the leader he is) I'd drop it...
 
I don't even read this book, i'm just waiting for the issue with chamber.
 
Just a quick question. I don't read the book but did they de-power Black Tom or just de-tree him? By this I mean take away the Tree mutation and keep his original powers which to me should have happened to lot of powered mutants post M-Day.

I think they completely depowered him and now he's using artificial means to replicate his powers, but I think I might have read somewhere that he was just de-treed, but I can't be sure.
 
i looked at the spoiler pic, what the hell is going on?
