So where to begin with all the juicy news. I'd like to start with X-23, Marjorie Liu will be writing a new book for X-23 who will be striking out on her own and will no longer just be weapon. From the sounds of it she will be attempting to find a little identity and of course run into a few obstacles along the way and there will be some NYX appearances for those who are curious. I'm personally excited to see her become something more than just a hot bod with some claws.
Okay next up is our old friend Wolverine who is going to hell while something else inhabits his body on the other side. Well, it sounds better than Frankencastle, yes I'm still a little miffed about that one. Although the interaction with his father may be interesting enough for me to take a quick look but also because I know for a fact the art will be show stopping with a top secret artist in the mix.
Also on the docket for Wolverine is X-Force which has taken over and plans on completely restaffing, hooray! However, the X-Men are not entirely thrilled with X-Forces presence and so let the games begin as they are targeted by Mutant Response. But I have a feeling X-Force won't care too much as they have to deal with something way worse than an X-Men hissy fit. APOCALYPSE! That's right! X-force will be working hard to take him down, I wonder if perhaps X-Men will take a chill pill and help out.
Next up, X-Factor, the Mutant detective agency who will take on any job, and that includes villains as long as they can throw down the cash. The panel clued us in by telling us a notorious "femme fatal" lady villain will hire them for a search and recovery mission. Now, be weary of a last page shocker in #207, as a matter of fact Peter David strongly recommended reserving a copy with your local retailer now.
And now I'm gonna go over a few quick news blurbs:
1. Good news if you're lovin' X-Men Legacy prepare for more
2. Bad news if you loved Dark X-Men, there is no reunion in sight.
3. There is more Ice Man to come
Okay, Second Coming was practically the buttress of the entire panel, almost every other question was answered with "Read Second Coming." So I'm gonna do another list.
1. Second Coming will set the stage for a new direction for the X-Men. A direction that promises to integrate the X-Men more fluidly into the Marvel Universe, this makes me happy.
2. Layla Miller returns from her holiday with Dr. Doom. Obviously a lot of the team members are suspicious of her and do not welcome her with open arms. However, she really doesn't give a shit. As Peter David put it "So? I'm Layla Miller and I know things." And there may be more making out with Jamie if you play your cards right.
3. For those of you who desperately miss Night Crawler, he will be back in action and actually has a heavy handed role in Second Coming.
4. Bitch alert! Scarlet Witch is back!
5. Not everyone will make it out alive.
Basically it all comes down to Hope, you'll find out how she fits into this whole crazy thing.
I would like to end this article by saying to Mr. Steve Wacker that I'm glad you love our city and and don't hate the Cubs 'cuz they're beautiful.
