Astonishing X-Men

The X-Men can forgive an insane person right...I mean Selene is going to show up in New X-Men and capture Wither...Emma has to stay...

It goes back to monthly again if I recall right. Still a wait but tiny compared to two months which was agonizingly long.

Good point...I was also looking at the new cover of Astonishings new Arc...it looks like Emma's staying... 😛

BTW Yeah...the bi-monthly thing was torture....it's sad this is Whedons last arc....

Colossus as the world destroyer is kind of perplexing. I doubt it'll be anything direct as some of the Colossus fans are speculating.

True...then I'd go with telepathy...I still want to know how Big C is going to destroy the Breaker World...

Destroy is a relative term... its doesnt have to be a physical destruction... we saw ord fighting to win the right to come to earth, so maybe its a warrior culture... the greatest warrior is the ruler n all... colossus beats said ruler in a fight, becomes ruler of breakworld and runs it into the ground... or is totally corrupted by his power n so on...

Still, it was worth it, in hindsight...

Still the guy wouldn't hurt a fly...maybe he'll spread a virus...

The Vulcan beating up the Imperial Guard Cover is my favourite.

His last arc is going to be "Unstoppable" unless Marvel manages to convince him to stay some time in the next 8 months.

Off-topic: But I'm going to guess Selene is Wither's mother.

Wow could be......that would make him an External no? If Emma stays and if that is true then there's going to be hell to pay...two women fighting over their "baby"...

Hopefully Astonishing won't go downhill after Joss leaves...

BTW Yeah I think that's Cyke...

i just wonder who'll brought in to replace them...

Hoping beyond hope that it's not Claremont and the art isn't Brubaker.

I second that...CC should retire I bet you the first thing he'd do to the team is remove Emma, bring back Storm, have Cyclops lose to Storm in a fight.....and they can do better then Brubaker...I also don't like Crapalo 's art..

Brubaker created Vulcan. 😖

Exactly...his characters lack personality...too much crap going around in his books he won't work well in Astonishing...the Rise and Fall of the shiar is a so, so arc.

🙁 i liked sway though...

I wouldn't mind Brian K Vaughn... as I've already said a couple of times... he's good with long complicated stories and twists.

Honestly, noone comes to mind to replace whedon... as for artists, i dunno... cassaday does very, i suppose the words are 'grown up' kind of art...

True he could work... hopefully the next writer continues the tradition and leaves Wolvey as comic relief..

Frankly the team is going to be incredibly hard to replace and the new team are going to have huge expectations to live up to.

Poor bastards...
