So the dessert was in the Crystal Palace? Why was he running at her like that? This is my first exiles ish, so forgive my ignorance.

 

[Harlekin]

Harlekin, the solicits say "Stormy weather" in reference to the Madame Hydra, and that cover shows us MAdame Hydra is Sue Storm... it was just a pun, to make us believe it was Ororo, but in truth it was Sue.

You are indeed correct. Claremont had me fooled there for a second. Nice.

That desert in like a little pocket dimensio in the crystal palace and I have no clue why Sabes ran at Psylocke like that. It's like he was asking to be attacked.

 

[Roughneck]

That's just how he runs

 

[Roughneck]

Actually I imagine that for some reason he is running like that cause he plans on attacking her to test her......Probably didn't count on her having a thing with the Real Sabertooth

Claremont following continuity from an older X-Men comic = pure gold. t:

True! And it was, like, 90s continuity, too, wasn't it? As Spidey2099 would say right about now: HOLY SHOCK!

 

[Valechan]

They were running some simulation program to see what would have happened if Proteus got free from Morph and Roma's face appeared and there was a flash of her palace.

Goddess... thanks a lot I can't wait to see it

 

[Colossal Spoons]

I'm sure CC will make a whole arc out of it soon enough lol

Also, it appears that Roma is the one who brought Betsy to that desert pocket dimension. And the bugs seem to be afraid of Roma when they see an image of her face in a screen. So maybe the Crystal Palace is hers, after all (a vacation home ?).

 

[Valechan]

It makes perfect sense they should be afraid of her. You just can't establish a mission to alter alternate realities without her permission. If she hasn't given them permission maybe they have been doing it all along in her back and now, probably thanks to HOM she found out and sent Betsy as her agent to monitor them.

Hmm, interesting idea

CC could possibly change a lot about the Exiles

 

[El Bastardo]

I know. I used to have it! It was one of the few comics I was able to get / allowed to have, mostly because I sneak-bought it with my own money and hid it.

Not like that was the first time he brought it up after the initial incident.

No, but it's still apreciated.


What worries me is that it seems like he is going to majorly **** Psylocke out. He wants her on the team, fine; but please Chris make sure that you acknowledge that there are other people on the team.

 

[Valechan]

If you look at the roster you'd see that Betts is the only one worth anything

 

[Roughneck]

untrue

 

[Valechan]

True the others are boring compared to Betsy

 

[Brainiac 8]

If you look at the roster you'd see that Betts is the only one worth anything

Spidey 2099, Blink, and Morph are all three more interesting than Psylocke.

If you ever read any of the Spidey 2099 title, then you would change your tune.

 

[Roughneck]

I was unaware that Sebita was speaking in Opinion...I thought she was speaking fact

 

[Roughneck]

and her opinion is wrong

 

[Valechan]

I don't care about Spidey 2099, I never read any 2099 issues (except the first 3 x-men ones) and I could care less about him. Blink has become dull and uninteresting lately. Sabretooth acting like a Wolverine (which is nomral for 295 Sabretooth) got old 10 years ago. Longshot is like a dummy that has no mind of his own, and Morph stopped being funny about 30 issues ago. The only one that was mildly interesting was Power Princess, and she got canned.

Comparing all this to my second favorite ever X-Woman it's clear that Betsy is far more interesting, at least for me.

My favorite Exile was Namora, and she got killed

 

[Brainiac 8]

Actually Sunfire was one of my favorites, and if they bring T-Bird back it would be great.

I love the current roster (mostly) and hope it gets tweaked a little, but I hope that Claremont doesn't just devolve it into another X-Book. Unfortunately he started off his run by doing just that when he got rid of PP and put in Psylocke.

I hope he keeps Spidey 2099 around though. (I was a huge fan and follower of the 2099 universe books. In fact I still read X-Men and Spidey 2099.)

Morph....I just hope he gets fixed....and Longshot I have never been a huge fan of him, but he doesn't bother me much.
